Minnesota state patrol is advising the public to refrain from participating in the 'No Kings' protests after a Democratic lawmaker was shot and killed. The agency shared on social media that due to the targeted shootings of state lawmakers, it is best for the public to stay home and not attend the planned demonstrations across Minnesota as a precautionary measure.

Lawmakers from both political parties have condemned the violence, with Governor Tim Walz calling it an 'unspeakable tragedy'. US Attorney General Pam Bondi and US Senator Amy Klobuchar also expressed their shock and offered condolences to the families of the victims.

The No Kings coalition has canceled all demonstrations in Minnesota following the tragic incident. Governor Tim Walz has urged people to avoid political rallies until the suspect is apprehended.

Minnesota state patrol shared a photo of 'No Kings' flyers found in the suspect's vehicle, reinforcing the message for the public to stay home and not attend the planned protests.

Former President Donald Trump has been briefed on the incident and condemned the violence, emphasizing that such acts will not be tolerated in the United States.

In response to the upcoming protests against him, Republican governors in several states are mobilizing national guard troops to maintain order and ensure public safety.

Despite concerns, Trump has confirmed that the military parade in Washington celebrating the US army's 250th anniversary will proceed as planned, rain or shine.

The 'No Kings' protests aim to support democracy and oppose what participants view as authoritarian actions by the Trump administration. Protests have been planned in all 50 states, with Los Angeles expected to see significant turnout.

In Atlanta, thousands of people have gathered for a No Kings rally, expressing their concerns about the current state of the country and the need for change.

The army's 250th anniversary celebration has evolved into a grand event in Washington, with thousands of troops, vehicles, and aircraft set to participate in various activities throughout the day.
