The No Kings protest rally begins at 1 p.m. at Waypoint Park on the Bellingham Waterfront, the old location of the Georgia Pacific paper mill.

The weather forecast is for cloudy, but no rain, with temperatures over 50 degrees. A nice, even perfect, spring day in Bellingham.

We normally do not promote political events on NWCitizen, but 2026 is a dangerous year in which our democratic Republic is being severly tested - perhaps more so than at any time in our history. This compares with the eve of the Civil War in November 1860 as a threat to our Constitution and to the future existence of our republic as a law-based society.
