Thousands of protesters gathered at the Torch of Friendship in Miami on Saturday to rally against the Donald Trump administration on the day he hosted a $45 million military parade on his birthday.

The protest was part of nationwide demonstrations planned for "No Kings Day," which organizers planned to coincide with Trump's military parade in Washington, D.C., celebrating the Army's 250th anniversary, and his birthday. Miami protestors used elaborate signs to express dissent on issues ranging from ICE's immigration raids to DOGE cuts to the military parade itself.
