Big crowds of protesters are expected across the United States against what some call authoritarian practices by President Donald Trump. Saturday marks the second "No Kings" protest and the third mass movement against the administration this year. The protests come amid intensifying conflict between federal law enforcement and protesters nationwide. Some conservative politicians have condemned the protests as "Hate America" rallies, while others see them as a fight for First Amendment rights. Protests are planned in over 2,500 locations, from major cities to rural communities.

Federal agents have detained several people near an immigration facility outside Chicago. This facility has been a frequent target for protesters since President Donald Trump's administration's surge on immigration enforcement this fall. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem visited the Broadview processing center on Friday as demonstrators gathered for a weekly show of opposition to the crackdown. Some protesters have tried to block vehicles from entering or leaving the area. Federal agents have used tear gas and other projectiles against the crowds. Local law enforcement increased its presence this week, closing streets and setting up barriers.
Madagascar President Andry Rajoelina has fired the prime minister and the rest of his government in response to days of deadly protests in the Indian Ocean island over the failure of the electricity and water supplies. Rajoelina said in a speech on national television that Prime Minister Christian Ntsay and other government officials would stay on an interim basis until a new government is formed. Youth-led protests against chronic electricity and water cuts began on Thursday, prompting the government to order nighttime curfews in the capital, Antananarivo, and other major cities. The United Nations human rights office said earlier Monday that 22 had been killed in violence around the protests.
