Texas, Trump and protest
Digest more
The Texas Department of Safety has identified a “credible threat toward state legislators” attending Saturday's “No Kings” protest at the Capitol.
The “day of defiance” protests begin as early as 10 a.m. in North Texas, while the Washington, D.C., military parade for the Army’s 250th birthday starts at 5:30 p.m. Central.
Opponents of President Donald Trump’s administration are set to rally in Dallas, Fort Worth, Frisco, Arlington, other North Texas cities.
The Mayor of El Paso is asking people planning to join in the "No Kings" demonstrations in Saturday to "protest peacefully."
If stopped by police, you’re only required to give your name in Texas if lawfully detained. You have the right to remain silent if arrested. Ask for a lawyer and don’t sign anything without legal advice. If you get pepper-sprayed or gassed, leave the area and flush your eyes with water or saline — not milk or oils.
