Police are investigating a shooting at a protest in Salt Lake City, in which a bystander was killed. A man was charged after driving through a crowd in Culpeper, Va.

NBC News' Jacob Soboroff reports from Los Angeles City Hall where thousands of protesters have gathered for a 'No Kings' protest against the Trump administration and ahead of the president's Washington D.

Thousands took to the streets in Pittsburgh and across western Pennsylvania, as well as the country, on Saturday as part of a demonstration deemed "No Kings."

Democracy is “in real trouble,” Mark Ruffalo told MSNBC’s Antonio Hylton while attending the “No Kings” rally in New York City Saturday. His words were echoed by Ellen Pompeo, Kerry Washington, Jimmy Kimmel, and many more notable people and celebrities who spoke out in support of the nationwide protests.

The "No Kings Nationwide Day of Defiance" is planned to "reject corrupt, authoritarian politics in the United States," organizers say.

Additional celebrities including Anna Kendrick, Gina Rodriguez-LoCicero and Tessa Thompson were out on Saturday to protest against the Trump administration.

A bystander was fatally shot after security members at the demonstration confronted a man who was running toward the crowd with an AR-15-style rifle, the police said.

Between activism, election results and protest turnout, the prevailing political winds suggest the backlash to the president is real.

Demonstrators will assemble at 11 a.m. at St. Paul College and begin marching to the Minnesota Capitol at noon, according to organizers including Indivisible Twin Cities, MN50501, Women’s March Minnesota and MN AFL-CIO labor unions.
