Crowds of people protested Saturday against the war in Iran and President Donald Trump's actions, in "No Kings" rallies across the US and in Europe.
Minnesota took center stage, in what organizers expected to be mass demonstrations involving millions of people.
Thousands of people stood shoulder-to-shoulder on the Minnesota Capitol lawn and surrounding streets in St. Paul. Some held upside down US flags, historically a sign of distress.
The event's headliner was Bruce Springsteen, who performed
" Streets of Minneapolis," He wrote the song in response to the fatal shootings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti by federal agents and in tribute to the thousands of Minnesotans who took to the streets over the winter to protest the Trump administration's aggressive immigration enforcement.
Before he launched into the song, Springsteen lamented Good and Pretti's deaths but said people's continued pushback against US.
Customs and Immigration Enforcement has given the rest of the country hope.
"Your strength and your commitment told us that this was still America," he said. "And this reactionary nightmare, and these invasions of American cities, will not stand."
People rallied from New York City, with almost 8.5 million residents in a solidly blue state, to Driggs, a town of fewer than 2,000 people in eastern Idaho, a state Trump carried with 66 per cent of the vote in 2024.
