On October 18, 2025, millions of Americans joined No Kings protests in cities across the country, rallying for democracy and limits on executive power, showing displeasure in Donald Trump’s administrative policies. While no demonstrations took place in Palo Pinto County, many local residents joined nearby events. According to organizers, approximately 250 people peacefully protested in Weatherford surrounding the Parker County Courthouse, to stand alongside others calling for accountability, transparency, and the protection of democratic norms.
