Across the country, relatively few disruptions were reported during protests and marches where the mood ranged from joyful to defiant.

Thousands gathered in Daley Plaza and in suburban events in protests timed to coincide with a military parade in Washington celebrating the Army's 250th anniversary and President Donald Trump's 79th birthday.

Protesters gathered in downtown Mobile as part of nationwide demonstrations against Trump's administration, with one attendee claiming the turnout exceeded expectations for "lower Alabama."

“The most threatening sound to an oligarch is laughter.”
