Thousands of western Massachusetts residents rallied in the streets on Saturday to protest President Donald Trump and his administration’s policies, joining the nationwide “No Kings” movement against actions they called authoritarian.

Thousands of people gathered on a rainy Saturday for the “No Kings” protest, which coincided with Boston’s Pride Parade.The protest is one of hundreds across the country to denounce President Trump’s recent policy changes.

Residents in Springfield, Northampton, Pittsfield, Westfield and other communities across western Massachusetts protested on 'No Kings Day.'

Across the country, relatively few disruptions were reported during protests and marches where the mood ranged from joyful to defiant.

The mass protest was focused on the Trump administration's actions that protesters believe are authoritarian and blur the line of democracy.

Thousands of people gathered in Copley Square in Boston on Saturday for the Pride parade while "No Kings" protesters lined the streets to peacefully demonstrate.

Organizers are calling for Americans to attend demonstrations across the country to protest President Trump on his 79th birthday.

The protests are being organized in response to the estimated $40 million price tag on the parade. Here’s what’s happening in Springfield.
