Protests Coming to a City Near You! Nationwide ‘No Kings’ Protests Spark Security Concerns Ahead of Trump’s Military Parade: Axios Security Group Issues Travel & Safety Recommendations

June 11, 2025 — Washington, D.C. As tensions rise across the country ahead of this weekend’s “No Kings” protests, Axios Security Group is urging the public, businesses, and event organizers to remain vigilant and prepared. The demonstrations, planned for Saturday, June 14th—Flag Day and former President Donald Trump’s 79th birthday—coincide with the Army’s 250th anniversary military parade in the nation’s capital.




The protests, orchestrated by the 50501 Movement, aim to counter what organizers call a "militarized display of ego" by the former president. Thousands of events are scheduled across all 50 states, with the flagship protest taking place in Philadelphia. Activists expect millions to participate in what they describe as a “Day of Defiance” against authoritarianism and billionaire-first politics.

“No Kings is a people-powered movement standing against the rise of authoritarian tendencies in our democracy,” said Elena Suarez, a spokesperson for the 50501 Movement. “We’re not protesting the troops—we’re protesting the symbolism of unchecked power paraded through our streets.”

Meanwhile, cities are bracing for potential unrest. In response to escalating demonstrations in recent days, particularly in Los Angeles, following an ICE raid, Texas Governor Greg Abbott has already mobilized over 7,000 National Guard troops and state police in anticipation of large-scale protests.

“With emotions high and thousands expected to gather, there’s a real risk of opportunistic violence, especially in larger cities,” said Jereme Dozier, CEO of Axios Security Group. “While most organizers are calling for peace, history shows that these events can quickly devolve. We’re advising all clients and citizens to prepare accordingly.”

Axios Security Group’s Recommendations for Personal and Organizational Safety:

  1. Avoid Protest Zones: Use live intelligence tracking and social media monitoring to steer clear of gathering hotspots.

  2. Pre-Plan Safe Routes: Identify and share alternate travel routes with family or staff in case of road closures or civil unrest.

  3. Reinforce Business Security: Ensure physical security systems, including CCTV and access control, are functioning properly.

  4. Hire Executive Protection: High-profile individuals, corporate leaders, and public officials should consider private security escorts.

  5. Monitor OSINT Channels: Conduct open-source intelligence (OSINT) scans to track threats in real time and safeguard digital footprints.

  6. Stay Informed: Follow local emergency management agencies and police advisories for curfews, emergency orders, or evacuation updates.

“The safety of our clients, their families, and their businesses is our top priority,” Dozier added. “Whether you're planning to attend a protest, travel for business, or operate in a major metro area, preparedness is your best defense.”

Public Advisory

Axios Security Group will enhance field operations this weekend in major metropolitan areas, including Washington, D.C., San Diego/Los Angeles, Dallas, and Charlotte/Raleigh. Clients requiring additional protection or intelligence briefings are encouraged to contact the firm’s 24/7 threat response center at 800-485-3983.
