No Kings 3.0: Massive Protests Across U.S.

0:00It's March 28th. Welcome in. This is Kansas News Today, where local news meets AI. Protesters flooded streets nationwide Saturday for No Kings 3.0. The third massive rally against President Trump's administration. Organizes called it one of the biggest non-violent protest days in U.S. history, with over 3,100 events playing coast to coast. In the Kansas City Metro, crowds gathered in spots like Kansas City, Overland Park, Liberty and more across Kansas and Missouri. These rallies aimed to push back against what folks see as king-like power grabs, standing up for democracy and constitutional rights. At Kansas City's Mill Creek Park, one of the largest spots, drones clocked thousands in attendance. The biggest turnout yet for the series. Parents brought kids to the mix, waving signs and sharing hopes for a better future. Especially after Roe v. Wade got overturned. One mom teared up watching her two-year-old hold a No Kings sign amid the crowd.

Meanwhile, a March kicked off around 2 p.m. through Country Club Plaza, with drummers, chants and high-energy looping back to the park. In Johnson County, morning crowds hit intersections to blast immigration policies and economic hits from wars. Liberty saw dozens at key crossings, honking cars and support, focused on due process and avoiding more conflicts. All events stayed peaceful and respectful, leaving organizers like those from indivisible KC, stunned by the massive show of solidarity. This builds on the first rally back in June and the second last October 18th, proving the push for change keeps gaining steam.
