Anti-Trump 'No Kings' Rally Set For Morristown: What To Know

MORRISTOWN, NJ — Another wave of demonstrations opposing the Trump administration is set to take place nationwide next month — including a planned protest in Morristown.

The event is being organized by the newly formed Tom Paine Brigade, which is hosting the protest under the "No Kings" platform. The movement is calling for nationwide, nonviolent demonstrations on June 14.

"On June 14—Flag Day—Donald Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday. A spectacle meant to look like strength. But real power isn’t staged in Washington. It rises up everywhere else," organizers said.

According to an online tracker, local events – each organized independently – will be taking place in Morristown, Newton, South Orange, Paramus, and other locations across New Jersey, with more than 100 demonstrations scheduled nationwide.

In Morristown, the demonstration is expected to begin at 10 a.m. and run until 11:30 a.m., officials said. Anyone interested in joining the protest is invited to register by clicking here.

"No Kings is a nationwide day of defiance. From city blocks to small towns, from courthouse steps to community parks, we’re taking action to reject authoritarianism—and show the world what democracy really looks like," organizers added.

This upcoming event follows a national day of protest held on April 5, which targeted President Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and federal budget cuts. That demonstration was led by a coalition of different organizations.

More than 1,200 rallies of various sizes took place across the United States on April 5, with some estimates placing total attendance at over one million people.

"A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action," organizers said. "We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events."

Attendees are advised not to bring any weapons to the events, including those that are legally permitted.
