Protesters have massed in cities across the United States, channeling a "No Kings" message to denounce what they view as authoritarian tendencies and the unbridled corruption of President Donald Trump.

There were more than 2600 rallies in major cities on Saturday in small towns as well as some in foreign capitals, challenging a Trump-led agenda that has reshaped the government and upended democratic norms with unprecedented speed since he took office in January.

"There is nothing more American than saying, 'We don't have kings' and exercising our right to peacefully protest," said Leah Greenberg, co-founder of Indivisible, a progressive organisation that planned the protests.

Earlier on Saturday, hundreds of Americans gathered in major European cities like London and Paris.
