'No Kings' Protests Draw 3,100+ Events Nationwide on Iran War One-Month Mark
On March 28, 2026 — coinciding with the one-month anniversary of the US-Israel strikes on Iran — more than 3,100 anti-Trump protests branded 'No Kings' took place across all 50 states, with organizers reporting millions of attendees. Protesters cited the Iran war, the rising cost of living driven by oil prices and tariffs, the ongoing DHS shutdown, and Trump's use of executive power. Two-thirds of RSVPs came from outside major urban centers, including hundreds of events in red-state suburban and rural areas — a notable geographic broadening compared to prior Trump-era demonstrations. Rallies featured signs referencing the ongoing Iran war, DOGE cuts to essential services, and TSA staffing chaos. The protests were among the largest domestic demonstrations of Trump's second term.
