LAKEPORT, Calif. — Concerned community members from across Lake County will gather in Lakeport’s Old Courthouse Museum Square on Main Street at noon on Saturday, Oct. 18, to take part in a nationwide, broad-based, peaceful protest called “No Kings — October Mobilization.”  
 
This is the second No Kings Nationwide rally and is expected to be even larger than the record-setting protest on June 14. 

The first No Kings Day, designed to coincide with Trump’s birthday military parade, brought out some 1.5 million people nationwide and 1,200 in Lakeport.  

Organizers expect even larger numbers this time noting that planned events around the country exceed those that took place in June.

Indivisible Lake County co-founder Gary Maes emphasized that “we are firmly dedicated to the peaceful and respectful exercise of the people’s rights to free expression in the public square.”
 
“Indivisible Lake County is a non-partisan grass-roots organization seeking to promote democratic principles and callout the corruption and authoritarian overreach of the current administration,” said spokesperson Denise Rushing.  “We unite once again on October 18 to remind the world that in the United States of America, the power belongs to the people.”

Old Courthouse Museum Park is located at 255 N. Main St., Lakeport.
