"No Kings" protests are being organized across North Texas and nationwide to challenge what organizers describe as the growing authoritarianism and corruption of President Donald Trump and his allies.

The Texas Department of Safety has identified a “credible threat toward state legislators” attending Saturday's “No Kings” protest at the Capitol.

Opponents of President Donald Trump’s administration are set to rally in Dallas, Fort Worth, Frisco, Arlington, other North Texas cities.

The “day of defiance” protests begin as early as 10 a.m. in North Texas, while the Washington, D.C., military parade for the Army’s 250th birthday starts at 5:30 p.m. Central.

Texas DPS officers will close the Capitol early ahead of Saturday's protest to ensure safety, but organizers say 'No Kings' protest will be peaceful.

As protests continue across North Texas, one sheriff is making it clear that while peaceful demonstrations are protected, any acts of violence or property damage will be met with swift consequences.

If stopped by police, you’re only required to give your name in Texas if lawfully detained. You have the right to remain silent if arrested. Ask for a lawyer and don’t sign anything without legal advice. If you get pepper-sprayed or gassed, leave the area and flush your eyes with water or saline — not milk or oils.
