On Saturday, No Kings protests and marches spread across the United States, drawing an estimated 7 million people. In Boston, at least 100,000 packed the rally to hear movement leaders and elected officials condemn what they called the Trump administration’s authoritarian grip on U.S. policy. Among the speakers were Representative Ayanna Pressley, Senator Elizabeth Warren, and Mayor Michelle Wu. But the subtext belonged to Senator Ed Markey and Representative Seth Moulton, rivals for the same Senate seat in 2026. Markey — a noted ally — took the stage draped in a transgender flag and stressed the stakes for trans rights. Moulton, whose comments on transgender issues have drawn fire since Trump’s election, was greeted with boos and jeers from parts of the crowd.
