MADISON, Wis. (WRN) — Thousands of people in Wisconsin participated in the latest “No Kings” demonstrations on Saturday.
Protesters gathered in dozens of Wisconsin cities and towns, pushing back against what No Kings organizers describe as growing authoritarianism from President Donald Trump, such as his unilateral decision to launch a war with Iran and the federal immigration push in the Twin Cities.
In Madison, police estimated 9,000 people took part in demonstrations including a march to the state Capitol. Thousands more rallied in Milwaukee, Green Bay, Wausau, Eau Claire, La Crosse, and smaller communities across the state.
Local organizers estimated 800 people attended the rally in Rice Lake.
