BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS: A large crowd of tens of thousands gathered in Boston for the 'No Kings' demonstration. Elizabeth Warren shared a video and spoke out against President Donald Trump and his administration, criticizing how they are handling the country and its citizens.

She highlighted the rising cost of living and said many people are struggling to keep up with daily expenses. Warren also pointed out that, despite Trump’s promises, people’s burdens have not eased.

Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey also expressed concerns, warning that Trump could use ICE in a way that might influence the election.

Elizabeth Warren slams Trump at 'No Kings' rally

Warren shared a video amid the 'No Kings' rally and used her platform to sharply criticize Trump, especially on the issue of rising living costs. 

"Donald Trump, the guy who promised on day one that he would lower costs, but instead has decreed tariffs, Wars, and a billionaire tax that has increased the price of your groceries of your health care of your gasoline of your fuel oil of your homes. He is driving up costs all across America. Will you fight back?"

Warren challenged the crowd directly, asking if they were willing to stand up and push back against these conditions.

The audience responded with a clear and unified “yes,” showing strong support for her message. Warren also shared a short 36-second video from the rally on her X account, captioned 'No Kings' in Boston.

Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey also spoke out against Trump and his administration. She focused on her concerns about Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and its role in Massachusetts. 

Healey told the crowd, “A lot of stuff is happening. A lot of bad is happening. ICE in our communities, health care is getting cut off, food taken away from people, a war that’s costing a billion dollars a day, including our men and women at risk,” drawing strong reactions from supporters.

The 'No Kings' gathering in Boston was part of a much larger wave of demonstrations taking place across the country, with many more events held throughout the Commonwealth.

At the Boston Common, several nonprofit groups showed up to support immigrant communities and express concerns about Trump’s policies. One of the groups, BVocal Chorus Group, added a musical element to the rally with a performance styled like a Broadway number. During their act, they sang about what they described as a “hostile government takeover.”

BVocal explains on its website that it is “a new protest chorus committed to uplifting our rallies, marches, picket lines, and civil disobedience with singing,” using music as a way to support and energize protest movements.
