AUSTIN (Talk1370.com) -- Thousands of demonstrators were expected to converge on downtown Austin and surrounding Central Texas communities Saturday for the latest series of "No Kings" rallies, a coordinated protest against the Trump administration that organizers believe could be among the largest in U.S. history.
The nationwide demonstrations were expected to take place in several cities across Central Texas including Round Rock, Cedar Park, and Pflugerville.
