Show Notes
October 19 2025; 7am: Almost seven million people across the nation attended events to protest what they call President Trump's authoritarian power grabs, according to organizers. Some of the biggest crowds were seen in Chicago, New York, LA, DC, and Boston -- but crowds also turned out in smaller cities and towns. Protesters even showed up in Republican-led states that voted for Trump in 2024. They all had one unifying message: America is no place for Kings. Paola Ramos and Philip Bump join The Weekend to discuss the nation-wide protests
