At least two demonstrations against President Donald Trump and immigration raids are expected in downtown San Antonio on Saturday evening.

San Antonio Mayor-elect Gina Ortiz Jones joins The Weekend to discuss Texas Governor Greg Abbott’s decision to deploy Texas National Guard troops amid protests. She also talks about her priorities as Mayor of the country’s seventh-largest city.

Multiple rallies are planned across Texas cities this week for "No Kings Day" on Saturday, June 14, from the Panhandle to South Texas. The protests are being organized through "50501," the grassroots movement facilitating independent organization across the U.S.

Hundreds gathered in downtown San Antonio on Wednesday night to protest the continued U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) deportations of undocumented immigrants.

The protests in Texas followed days of unrest in Los Angeles, where President Donald Trump sent National Guard troops in response to demonstrations.
