Coordinated "No Kings" protests are happening from coast to coast, part of a "national day of peaceful protest" against the Trump administration, expected to draw millions. Protesters in some areas braved wet weather to raise signs and chant slogans supporting the rights of immigrants and criticizing what they see as Trump's power grab.

Across the country, relatively few disruptions were reported during protests and marches where the mood ranged from joyful to defiant.

The LAPD said on social media that the people in the crowd were throwing "rocks, bricks, bottles and other objects" while they were near the federal building.
