Saturday, thousands of people descended on downtown Denver to voice their opposition to the Trump administration and its policies.

Large crowds peacefully gathered in front of the Colorado State Capitol in Denver Saturday to take part in one of several anti-Trump “No Kings” rallies in Colorado and across the country.

Dozens of Regional Transportation District routes were detoured or delayed throughout metro Denver on Saturday as thousands of Coloradans gathered for “No Kings” protests.

Protesters are gathering nationwide, including Colorado, as President Trump attends a parade commemorating the Army's 250th anniversary on his 79th birthday.

Over two hours after the Denver "No Kings" protest ended, a group of protesters clashed with Denver police officers.

Around 2,000 protests were planned on Saturday in opposition to President Donald Trump. Large crowds turned out in cities like Portland, Denver, Chicago, Houston and Los Angeles – and in smaller communities in traditionally conservative areas.

The "No Kings" protest set for Saturday is poised to be the largest local demonstration against President Trump. The question is: Are Mayor Mike Johnston and the Denver Police Department prepared? Why it matters: Any civil unrest will reveal what Denver has — or hasn't — learned from the mistakes some officers made during the George Floyd protests five years ago.

Organizers have planned demonstrations in cities and towns across the country on the same day as President Trump’s parade in Washington to celebrate the Army.

As one of the largest demonstrations of the year prepares to take shape on the steps of the Colorado State Capitol, Denver police are taking to social media to outline what participants can expect. Hanna Powers spoke with an expert on how they plan to keep the day safe.
