'No Kings' rallies end peacefully in Portland with resounding message: 'We cannot be silent'
Tens of thousands across Oregon and Washington — and nationwide — peacefully marched in the "No Kings" demonstrations; Portland police said no arrests were made.
At least 40,000 to 50,000 Portlanders took to downtown streets yesterday, Saturday, October 18, to march, wave signs, and raise their voices against the increasingly authoritarian policies of President Trump—though some estimated the crowd size to be much larger.
PPB said it has worked alongside agencies like the Oregon State Police, ODOT and TriMet to maintain safety at protests.
Opponents of President Donald Trump’s administration are set to rally in hundreds of cities on Saturday, Oct. 18, in a second round of “No Kings” protests.
