DOJ warns US attorneys to prepare for criminal investigations ahead of nationwide anti-Trump protests | 12 June 2025 | The Department of Justice on Thursday advised its nearly 100 U.S. Attorney Offices to be prepared for criminal investigations related to the planned nationwide protests on Saturday against the Trump administration's policies. Thousands of "No Kings" protests are slated to take place across the country on Saturday, with attendees expected to rally against the Trump administration's policies. "As we've said repeatedly, the Department respects the right to peacefully protest & assemble to engage on important issues," a DOJ spokesperson wrote in a statement to Fox News Digital. "However, the Department and its 94 U.S. Attorney Offices will not tolerate unlawful violence & destruction of property." Washington, D.C., on Saturday will host a large military parade for the Army's 250th anniversary, which coincides with Flag Day.
