Thousands of New Mexico and the nation gathered for "No Kings" protests against the Trump administration, calling for immigration enforcement, the Iran war, and threats to democracy. The demonstrations were held across the country, with over 350 people attending the event in Truth or Consequences, a county where voters consistently chose Trump. The White House described the rallies as the product of “leftist funding networks” with little public support. The Republican Party and state Senate Republicans also joined their rally cry against Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham, stating that New Mexico also rejects the idea of having a queen. Protests spawned across southern New Mexico, in cities such as Deming, Las Cruogls, and Hobbs, many within conservative regions.
