Across Southern California and honestly the country today
with the No King's Day rallies that are taking place, thousands
of them throughout the country, including in Pasadena here locally.
Let's go ahead and take another look here.
You can see that there are still people gathered here in Pasadena
happening at Colorado Boulevard and Fair Oaks Avenue in Pasadena.
This is going to wrap up at around one o'clock so shortly
and just a little bit, but still some people out there with signs
as well. So the No Kings Day rallies
are typically about being against the policies from President
Donald Trump. But in particular,
this event is also about encouraging people to get out
and vote early as well. So we're going to keep
an eye on these No Kings rallies that are happening
across the country. But in the meantime,
go ahead and listen to what some of the people had to say
who attended in Pasadena today.
Well, I think there are a lot of issues
that people need to be on their mind.
The Iran war, health care, a lot of issues that I feel
the American public needs to think about.
It'll grow bigger
as time goes on.
I think it's fine.
Whatever, you know, when people come out, it's good.
And I think it's fine, whatever, you know, when people come
out, it's good. It's all a good show.
It looks like a good showing to me. I mean, what do you think?
It's not what it's
been in the past,
but I'm grateful
that they're
here,
we're all here.
Why was it important for you to be here?
This is very serious.
We'll lose our democracy if we lose.
And I truly believe that.
So, and I truly believe that and I'm grateful
to the Republicans that have recognized that
it made a turn to get back to us as one and not divide us.
So I brought
To defend democracy.
I don't like the way that our country's going towards fascism
and so I'm out here to defend
democracy.
And I also think that our president has dementia really, really badly.
I don't know why the 25th Amendment hasn't been invoked.
You know, the man is very, he's ill physically and he's ill mentally.
And so he needs to be replaced.
And I'm hoping that once we take over the Senate,
the Dems take over the Senate and the House,
that they can move Trump out.
I think he probably should be at Mar-a-Lago with health care,
you know, with a private nurse and being cared for.
I don't, you know, so I just think it's really important
that Americans stand up and say we're not going to do this anymore.
Thank you.
