Fact check: How many people participated in the no kings rally june 14 boise idaho

Checked on June 15, 2025

1. Summary of the results

While exact attendance numbers are not available, the No Kings rally in Boise on June 14 attracted "thousands" of protesters [1]. The event took place at the Idaho State Capitol, 700 W. Jefferson St., from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. [2]. The rally was part of a larger nationwide protest movement, with No Kings claiming over 5 million participants across the country by mid-afternoon [1].

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

The original question focuses solely on Boise's numbers, but important context is missing:

  • The protest was part of a larger coordinated effort across multiple Idaho cities, including Nampa, Idaho Falls, Moscow, Coeur d'Alene, and Sandpoint [1]
  • The event was specifically organized as a protest against President Trump [1]
  • The protest had a specific location and time frame at the State Capitol building [2] [3]

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

Several potential sources of bias should be considered:

  • The nationwide participation number of "over 5 million" comes from No Kings themselves [1], an organization that would benefit from reporting higher numbers
  • The use of vague terms like "thousands" without specific counts [1] makes it difficult to verify actual attendance
  • None of the available sources provide independent verification of the attendance numbers, suggesting possible limitations in the accuracy of reported figures
  • Multiple sources confirm the event occurred [2] [3] [4] but notably avoid providing specific attendance figures, which might indicate uncertainty about the exact numbers
