Several events are scheduled around Maine, including in #BathME, #BrunswickME, #FreeportME, #RocklandME and #WiscassetME.
October 14, 2025
"No Kings, a peaceful protest movement against the Trump administration, has recently announced there are now over 2,500 community events scheduled for its Day of Peaceful Action on Saturday, Oct. 18. These events are organized by average Americans across personal, political and geographic demographics in all 50 states.
"There are five event locations in the Midcoast: the corner of Main and School streets in Freeport, 8-11 a.m.; Wiscasset Bridge on Route 1, 10-11 a.m.; 191 Maine St., Brunswick, 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.; Rockland’s Chapman Park, 294 Main St., noon to 1 p.m.; and Sagadahoc Bridge in Bath, 1-2 p.m. Go to nokings.org/#map to see all No Kings Day of Peaceful Action events.
"Building on the momentum of the June 14 day of action, which drew more than 5 million people across all 50 states, the #October18 mobilization is the next chapter in the No Kings movement. According to a prepared release, the aim of the Day of Peaceful Action is to send a unified message: We are a nation of equals, and our country will not be ruled by fear or force.
"Groups organizing the No Kings peaceful protests across the country include #ACLU, #AmericanFederationOfTeachers, #CommonDefense, #50501Movement, #HumanRightsCampaign, #Indivisible, #LeagueOfConservationVoters, #MoveOn, #NationalNursesUnited, #PublicCitizen, #SEIU and #UnitedWeDream, among others.
"All No Kings events adhere to a shared commitment to nonviolent protest and community safety, the prepared release said. Organizers are trained in de-escalation and are working closely with local partners to ensure peaceful and powerful actions nationwide."

The groundwork was already laid back in 2019!!! Impartial my a$$!
#SupremeCourt justices met with leader of #homophobic #HateGroup ahead of judgements on landmark #LGBTQ rights cases
Before announcing their judgement on three critical #LGBT+ rights cases, #USSupremeCourt justices #BrettKavanaugh and #SamuelAlito chose to meet with the leader of a notorious anti-LGBT+ hate group.
Nov 04 2019
Written by Emma Powys Maurice"#Kavanaugh and #Alito met with Brian Brown, who is the co-founder of the National Organisation for Marriage (#NOM) and the president of the World Congress of Families (#WCF).
"Both groups actively campaign against basic LGBT+ rights in the US and beyond. Brown himself has long organised against LGBT+ communities, promoted harmful laws and emboldened other hate groups and extremists.
"Recently, he boasted of his close relationship with autocratic Hungarian prime minister #ViktorOrbán and met with activists in #TbilisiGeorgia, to praise them as 'men of faith' after threats of extreme violence led to #TbilisiPride being cancelled.
"Worryingly, the two Supreme Court judges seemed to indicate which side they’re likely to be on as they proudly posed for a photo alongside Brown on Tuesday, October 29.
"Although the tweet doesn’t state what the meeting was for, it was probably in connection to a major brief NOM has just filed with the US Supreme Court.
"According to NOM’s website, the brief is 'urging #SCOTUS to protect people of faith from governmental discrimination because of their belief that marriage is the union of one man and one woman'.
"This directly relates to the cases currently being considered by the Supreme Court, which will determine whether LGBT+ people are covered by existing federal laws that protect against discrimination.
"It’s not the first time Brian Brown and NOM have tried to pressure the Supreme Court on LGBT+ rights – in 2010, NOM was involved in successful efforts to oust three #Iowa Supreme Court judges who had ruled in favour of #SameSex marriage in the state.
"A day after being pictured with the Supreme Court justices, Brown was in #Ghana for a two-day conference hosted by the WCF, where he and other #AntiGay extremists sought to influence African political and religious leaders against LGBT+ rights.
"The conference was strongly condemned by the #HumanRightsCampaign for its attempts to 'further endanger #LGBTQ people, women and others in Ghana and throughout the world'.
"Speakers at the conference are said to have advocated for the adoption of public policies supporting so-called '#ConversionTherapy' and an understanding of LGBT+ people as 'deviant.'
"'We urge allies to help us shine a spotlight on the group’s hateful agenda and hold the World Congress of Families accountable by sharing news on social media about the group’s harmful messages and amplifying the positive work of local LGBTQ communities and their allies,' the #HRC warned."
