A short time ago, a Trooper with the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) took one person into custody in connection with the threats made against state lawmakers who planned to attend today’s protest at the Texas State Capitol Complex,

AUSTIN, Texas — As the official "No Kings" protest at the Texas Capitol ended, police closed a number of streets in Downtown Austin as protesters began walking through downtown.

According a bulletin sent to lawmakers early Saturday afternoon, authorities "are leveraging all available resources to address this threat."

Thousands protested in Central Texas on "No Kings Day," opposing perceived authoritarianism on a day marking Flag Day and Trump's birthday.

The Texas DPS closed the Capitol and grounds just before 1 p.m. because of “a credible threat” ahead of the protest at 5 p.m. Saturday in Austin.

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.

The Texas Department of Public Safety issued a statement Friday confirming the evacuation of the Texas Capitol due to a “credible threat toward state lawmakers.”

Many residents without legal status are staying away from anti-ICE protests because they don't feel safe. More demonstrations are planned for the weekend.

Protesters took to the streets to march against the Trump administration as part of nationwide "No Kings" demonstrations June 14.
