No Kings is a protest movement that has emerged across the country. It is focused on demonstrating against actions by the Trump administration. Several such rallies have taken place in Tallahassee since 2025. Typically, they attract left-of-center advocacy groups, politicians and residents of various political perspectives, united in opposing President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n
Tallahassee’s protest coincided with similar demonstrations taking place around the country Saturday. Organizers estimate nationwide, millions of people participated. In Tallahassee, the crowd reached into the thousands.<\/p>\n
One of the people who spoke to the group gathered was Grant Peeples, an American Folk artist and a self-described “tree-hugger who watches NASCAR.”.<\/p>\n
“You don’t need a PhD in kleptocracy to know what looting with an American flag pin on a suit lapel looks like. And you don’t need to be a criminologist to know that our entire government is now operating like a mafia syndicate. No, just follow the boots, the bands, the buzz words, the body bags, the blood and the snow,” he said.<\/p>\n
Peeples expressed anger about the Trump administration’s immigration policies, federal staffing changes and nationalistic messaging.<\/p>\n
