By The News Tribune
Thousands of people are gathering at sites across Pierce County on Saturday for No Kings events.
The protests against President Donald Trump are taking place across the nation on the same day as a military parade with an estimated cost of $25 million to $40 million occurs in Washington, D.C. The protests against Trump are part of a national movement that has been gathering steam since his Jan. 20 inauguration.
Here are photos and videos from events in Tacoma and Gig Harbor.
