GET YOUR DEFENSE OF DEMOCRACY ON

SATURDAY JUNE 14

NO KINGS DAY

Please see Ellsworth, Bangor, and Augusta details below.

A constitutional republic is a terrible thing to waste.

An authoritarian state is terrible to live under.

NO KINGS is a national day of action and mass mobilization in response to increasing authoritarian excesses and corruption from Pres. Trump and his allies. We’ve watched as they’ve cracked down on free speech, detained people for their political views, deported legal residents, threatened to deport American citizens, and defied the courts. They’ve done all this while continuing to serve and enrich themselves and their billionaire allies.

This country doesn’t belong to a king — and we’re protesting Trump throwing himself a military parade funded by tens of millions of our taxpayer dollars while stealing from us and stripping away our rights, our freedoms, and the programs our families rely on. On June 14th, we’re coming together to send one clear message: No Thrones. No Crowns. No Kings.

A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
