| Chaos Erupts as ‘No Kings' Demonstrators Leave Texas Capitol Grounds for Street Protest |
| 2025-06-16 |
| [Breitbart] The anti-Trump “No Kings” protest held on the grounds of the Texas Capitol continued long after the scheduled close as hundreds of protesters took to the streets of Austin. The protesters, some wearing dark clothing, helmets, face coverings, and gas masks, blocked traffic, taunted police, overturned garbage receptacles, and moved barricades into the downtown streets until finally being dispersed by authorities several hours later. Several protesters were arrested after the large crowd refused to obey orders to remain out of the streets and to disperse after authorities deemed the protest to be an unlawful assembly late in the evening near 8th Street and Colorado Avenue. Protesters at one point were cornered by authorities after ignoring numerous warnings to stay off the downtown streets, but managed to break through a line of officers and continue marching in the streets. Authorities dispersed tear gas on several street corners after the crowd attempted to rush police lines set up to contain the protesters. Breitbart Texas observed two arrests shortly before the crowd finally dispersed at around 11:00 p.m. Law enforcement officers endured hours of vulgar taunts by the crowd at each downtown intersection where the officers were stationed to contain the demonstrators. As reported by Breitbart Texas, earlier in the day, the group of protesters gathered on the grounds of the Texas Capitol as speakers urged attendees to resist the Trump administration and fight back against “The King.” U.S. Congressman Lloyd Doggett at one point addressed the crowd, calling them “Patriots, who will never bow down to a King,” going on to refer to President Trump as a tyrant in front of one protester proudly waving a sign that read, “8647.” Related: Austin: 2025-06-14 Blue city joins LA chaos as anti-ICE agitators injure officers in violent riots Austin: 2025-06-06 Trump names nominees to take over commands in Middle East and Africa Austin: 2025-06-05 US army vets arrested with Nazi paraphernalia, arsenal of guns and bombs Related: No Kings: 2025-06-15 Officers injured as Portland rioters breach ICE building with explosives and rocks following No Kings protest No Kings: 2025-06-15 Minnesota Lawmaker who was shot had just voted NO on healthcare for illegals, plus all about her killer No Kings: 2025-06-14 And So It Begins: Leftist Monkey Wrenching Is Leading To Civil War |
