Conservative executives in several US states have assigned National Guard personnel on readiness in anticipation of massive protests resisting Donald Trump and his agenda.
Planners of the "No Kings" initiative announced that gatherings are scheduled at over 2,500 sites throughout the United States.
According to protest leaders, the last Anti-Monarchy event in June brought out over five million demonstrators denouncing Trump's governmental direction.
Executives in the Lone Star State and Virginia have publicly deployed their local National Guard units, though the level of armed forces involvement remains unclear.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott cited the "planned radical demonstration" as rationale for activating local forces.
Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin correspondingly ordered deployment of the state's National Guard forces.
Demonstration organizers characterized the gatherings as resistance to Trump's "strong-arm tactics."
"The administration considers his authority is total," participants argue on their digital presence.
"But in the United States, we don't have absolute rulers and we won't back down against turmoil, graft, and cruelty."
Various Republicans have termed the protests as "Anti-American" events.
Kansas Senator Roger Marshall according to sources stated prior to the rallies: "We'll have to call out the National Guard."
"Hopefully it'll be non-violent. I'm skeptical," he concluded.
Liberal officials denounced the deployment of state troops.
Texas Democrat Gene Wu argued: "Deploying armed troops to control peaceful protests is what monarchs and autocrats do — and Greg Abbott just shown he's like them."
