Georgia's leaders stress order ahead of planned protests, distinguishing between peaceful assembly and violence.

At least 1,500 "No Kings" protests nationwide are planned Saturday on the same day President Donald Trump scheduled a large-scale military parade in Washington, D.C. on Flag Day and his 79th birthday.

Protesters in Georgia are planning a day of defiance against Trump, with events in Atlanta and other cities nationwide.

Protesters gathered in major Georgia cities on Saturday to protest President Donald Trump’s administration and its immigration enforcement policies, part of a broader wave of demonstrations across the country.

Gov. Brian Kemp warned that while peaceful protests are protected, any violence against law enforcement during Saturday's "No Kings" rallies will bring "quick and heavy accountability."

With mass protests over the Trump administration’s policies set to take place around the country Saturday, Georgia’s leaders say they will be prepared if violent elements overtake peaceful protests. But organizers of the planned “No Kings” event in Atlanta say they’ve taken every step to ensure a morning of peaceful demonstration.

MACON, Ga. — A nationwide protest over President Donald Trump's administration policies, dubbed "No Kings" protests, are taking to the streets on Saturday, and there are two protests taking place in Central Georgia this weekend. They're among roughly 37 taking place across Georgia.

A peaceful “No Kings” protest of hundreds of people voiced their support for democracy and opposed President Donald Trump’s authoritarian actions in downtown Macon Saturday morning.
