Throngs of demonstrators are expected to turn out nationwide this Saturday for a long-planned “No Kings” protest. With President Trump’s approval ratings at historic lows, there are many grievances being aired, including rising gas prices, the war in Iran, immigration enforcement, tax cuts for the rich, voting restrictions and the numerous controversial statements emerging from Trump and his social media. The protest in Redding is planned for Cypress Avenue in front of City Hall from 11AM to 2PM Saturday, with a march at 12:30PM. Previous “No Kings” protests at City Hall have drawn thousands of people.
