Thousands took to the streets in Pittsburgh and across western Pennsylvania, as well as the country, on Saturday as part of a demonstration deemed "No Kings."

The "No Kings Nationwide Day of Defiance" is planned to "reject corrupt, authoritarian politics in the United States," organizers say.

Massive crowds gathered in Cal Anderson Park, aboard a state ferry and at the state Capitol to denounce the hard-line policies of President Donald Trump.

We implore everyone not to play into Trump’s hands and fall for his schemes,” the chair of the Washington State Democratic Party said in a statement.

Democracy is “in real trouble,” Mark Ruffalo told MSNBC’s Antonio Hylton while attending the “No Kings” rally in New York City Saturday. His words were echoed by Ellen Pompeo, Kerry Washington, Jimmy Kimmel, and many more notable people and celebrities who spoke out in support of the nationwide protests.

Tens of thousands of Americans joined "No Kings" protests across the United States against the Trump administration.

"We are here today in Tacoma saying we will not yield to that darkness in the smallest dimension," said former governor Jay Inslee.

"No Kings" protests against the Trump administration are taking place today in and around New York City as part of nationwide demonstrations. The protests coincide with Saturday's military parade in Washington,
