Indianapolis 'No Kings' Anti-Trump protest live updates from Indiana Statehouse
Protestors are expected to fill the Indiana Statehouse's lawn and sidewalks Saturday afternoon as part of a national day of action criticizing U.S. President Donald Trump's administration.
The volunteer-led 50501 movement — which stands for 50 protests in 50 states on 1 day — has organized several national peaceful protests since February. The group is responsible for an April 5 "Hands off!" demonstration in Indianapolis that drew about 5,000 Hoosiers.
The Indianapolis No Kings Mass Protest, which will span noon to 3 p.m., will feature several speakers and music. Protests are planned across the state in 36 cities and towns, including Noblesville, Bargersville, Bloomington, South Bend, Evansville and Fort Wayne.
This weekend's mass protest is branded as "No Kings," which will be focused on the Trump administration's actions that protestors believe are authoritarian and blur the line of democracy. Topics include Trump's policy on immigration, education, federal spending cuts, reproductive rights and tariffs.
The day also coincides with Trump's 79th birthday and the expansive 250th anniversary military parade planned in Washington, D.C.
Larger crowds are expected as Indy Pride is also hosting its annual Pride festival, parade, concert and other celebrations throughout the weekend. The Saturday parade will run from 10 a.m. to noon on Massachusetts Avenue, just before the Statehouse protest begins.

Officers injured as Portland rioters breach ICE building with explosives and rocks
Multiple police officers were injured in Portland, Oregon Saturday night during a violent riot at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility. A mob launched fireworks, smoke grenades and threw rocks at federal law enforcement, as they broke glass and forcibly entered the ICE facility, Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told Fox News Digital. Four officers were injured during the attack, though federal law enforcement was able to secure the facility. The riot came after the city hosted a 'No Kings' protest at 1 p.m., which officials labeled a 'large-scale free speech gathering.' Tens of thousands of people marched through downtown and returned to Waterfront Park at about 4 p.m., which is about five miles from the ICE field location. The Portland Police Bureau (PPB) declared an unlawful assembly near the facility at about 6:30 p.m. local time, warning it would use crowd control measures, including impact munitions or other physical force, if necessary. About 30 minutes later, PPB said a medical event was reported within the ICE facility and medical personnel needed to enter. 6 Armed US Customs and Border Protection agents point less-lethal guns at masked protesters during a riot outside the ICE building in Portland, Ore. on June 14, 2025. AP 6 Hundreds of people take part in the 'No Kings' protest through the streets of Portland, Ore. on June 14, 2025. AP They warned rioters not to interfere with police, or 'force may be used against you,' the bureau wrote on social media. At about 8 p.m., PPB said officers observed criminal activity including assault and criminal mischief and would be making targeted arrests. 'Do not interfere with police action,' the agency wrote in a subsequent post. 'Failure to adhere to this order may subject you to citation or arrest.' 6 A masked protester receives medical attention after getting tear gas in his eyes during a violent riot against federal agents. AP 6 Law enforcement agents wear gas mask as tear gas is deployed around them. AP It is unclear how many arrests, if any, were made. 'Portland rioters are violently targeting federal law enforcement and we won't sit idly by and watch these cowards,' McLaughlin said. 'Secretary [Kristi] Noem's message to the rioters is clear: you will not stop us or slow us down. ICE and our federal law enforcement partners will continue to enforce the law. And if you lay a hand on a law enforcement officer, you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.' The riot came as the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) addressed the doxxing of its ICE agents on X. Posters pasted around the city include agents' identities, photos and addresses. 6 Law enforcement officers detain a masked protester during a riot that broke out in front of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement center in Oregon. AP 6 A protester yells as he is detained by Border protections agents. AP DHS said it will not be deterred from enforcing the law. 'We will NOT be deterred by rioters' intimidation and threats,' DHS wrote in the post. 'ICE immigration enforcement will only ramp up. The violent targeting of law enforcement in Portland, OR by lawless rioters is despicable, and its leaders must call for it to end.' PPB did not immediately respond to inquiries from Fox News Digital.

Retiree are fearing for the future of Social Security — here's what they can do to protect themselves
Moneywise and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue through links in the content below. Retirees are anxious about the future of Social Security as they navigate extreme market volatility and high levels of policy uncertainty. Even some House Republicans are concerned — breaking ranks to warn President Donald Trump of the potential consequences of further cuts. Rep. Nicole Malliotakis and 14 of her Republican colleagues sent a letter to the new Commissioner of Social Security, voicing worries over 'inadequate customer service provided by the Social Security Administration (SSA).' The average wait time for phone calls in 2025 has jumped over 40%, to a staggering 86 minutes. Thanks to Jeff Bezos, you can now become a landlord for as little as $100 — and no, you don't have to deal with tenants or fix freezers.

Find out how you can access this $1B private real estate fund (with as little as $10) And seniors are just as concerned: An Associated Press poll showed 30% of respondents aged 60 and over aren't confident about the availability of Social Security benefits when they need them. 'It's a worry that I'm sure everybody is having right now,' Kathie Sherrill, a 74-year-old retiree, told the Detroit Free Press on March 26. Insecurity around Social Security isn't necessarily new. After all, the program's trust funds may only be able to fully support retirement benefits until 2035 before they are reduced, according to the SSA's 2024 trustees report. Politicians have mused over the years how Social Security should be reformed. But the Trump administration is simultaneously seeking to make cuts within the SSA, while implementing policies that experts say risk fueling inflation, potentially slowing the global economy. Some experts believe President Donald Trump's proposals may speed up Social Security's insolvency. Given that SSA data shows people over 65 derive about 31% of their income from Social Security, these factors are unsurprisingly fueling retirees' fears. In the meantime, Sherrill and her friends are cutting back on life's little luxuries, such as eating out and entertainment. 'That wasn't my plan, but that's what I've been doing,' she said. If your benefits are disrupted, you don't need to be caught off guard. There are measures you can take to reduce your reliance on Social Security benefits, and bolster your retirement savings without relying on government policies.

How to Draw Down Your Retirement Savings When the Markets Are Gyrating
Shelby French of Lexington, Ky., is a lifelong saver who thought she was financially well-prepared for retirement. What she wasn't counting on were market gyrations that sent her investments plunging by $60,000 over a three-day period this spring. 'I have my portfolio set to moderate risk; we haven't changed a ton in the past few years,' she said — but the prospect of more market volatility has prompted her to rethink that approach. Ms. French, 75, is of an age when the I.R.S. requires people with traditional, tax-deferred retirement accounts like 401(k)s and individual retirement accounts to draw down some of that money — and pay income tax on it or incur penalties. These required minimum distributions — frequently referred to by the abbreviation R.M.D.s — can be painful when retirees have to sell assets in a falling market. 'I use my R.M.D. money to pay big things, like long-term care premiums, my property taxes, insurance,' Ms. French said. This year, she went against the advice of her financial advisers and withdrew the money she knew she would be required to take in a single lump sum in January rather than spread out the withdrawals over the course of the year. 'I knew it wasn't going to be good,' she said. 'I figured it was better to get it out.' The Trump administration's tax, trade and immigration policies all have the potential to raise inflation and constrain economic growth. Uncertainty over tariffs has led businesses to hold off on hiring, expanding and investing. Tax legislation being negotiated in Congress is projected to add to the nation's debt, which recently prompted the ratings firm Moody's to downgrade the country's credit rating. Broadly, the stock market has regained the ground it lost in the springtime. Investors, caught by surprise at the size and scope of the president's tariff ambitions in April, sent the broad-based S&P 500 index tumbling nearly into bear market territory — defined as a drop of 20 percent from a recent high. Yields on long-dated U.S. government bonds, typically considered among the world's safest investments, climbed and remain elevated from where they were a year ago, an indication of investor wariness about the country's financial stability.
