Oct. 10, 2026 – Anti-Trump activists are organizing demonstrations for President Donald Trump’s Tuesday visit to Wasilla, with plans circulating for a roadside gathering, separate protests in other Alaska communities, and an effort to reserve rally tickets without attending.
A Facebook post in the public 50501 Anchorage group outlines a tentative protest from 1:30 to 4 pm on Oct. 13, beginning streetside at Newcomb Park, 891 E. Parks Highway in Wasilla. The post also mentions gathering closer to the rally for those able to get in.
The person who posted the update said multiple groups were involved and that a flyer and final details would be released Saturday, Oct. 10.
A separate public post by another account circulated the same time and location described the effort as the largest coordinated response currently being planned.
Trump is scheduled to speak at the Curtis D. Menard Memorial Sports Center at 3:30 pm Tuesday. The official registration page lists doors opening at noon and the program beginning at 2 pm.
Comments accompanying the protest announcement include suggestions for demonstrations along the highway.
“We need protests on the highway as well,” wrote another person, while yet another suggested people be dropped off to stand along the sides of the highway, envisioning a chain of protesters heading into the Valley. Other comments encouraged loud vehicles and amplified anti-Trump music.
Those comments indicate interest in roadside demonstrations, but people heading to the valley should also be prepared for spontaneous highway blockades. Some Facebook posts have indicated that Alaskans are better shots — veiled threats made by likely keyboard warriors who will be getting a visit from the Secret Service.
A separate Facebook post urged people to register for rally tickets and then not attend.
“Go reserve 4 tickets so the auditorium is empty when he gets here!!! I got mine,” the post reads. It included a link to the official rally registration page.
The post advocates an effort to undermine attendance through unused registrations. It does not demonstrate how many people have participated or whether unused registrations would prevent other supporters from entering.
Opposition activity is also planned on the Kenai Peninsula.
A screenshot of a public post by NoKings Soldotna Kenai announces a Tuesday demonstration at the “Y” in Soldotna from 4 to 6 pm. The group says participants will protest Trump’s visit and wave signs supporting Mary Peltola and other opposition candidates.
People attending Tuesday’s rally should plan to arrive early and allow extra time for traffic, parking, and security screening. With demonstrations being organized in Wasilla, attendees should remain alert to changing conditions, avoid confrontations, and be watchful for spontaneous blockades.

Cool! Make room for Reggie, please!
Soldotna has become very blue and retarded.
50501, isn’t that the group that resistance leading, Trump hater Murkowski praised back in April 30, 2025 Must Read article? Is the Trump hating Princess going to be out on the highway with a sign? Will be zooming by on my way to the rally with my your #1 finger up.
No. Lisa is with House Husband this week at our Mexican Villa. They admit that Alaska is no longer a friendly place for them to visit. The Mexican drug gangs and cartel lords treat them better.
The petulant toddlers are out of the playpen again
IOW, silly leftists will throw a tantrum. Good for them. They will be ignored just like all the other toddlers who throw tantrums. Leftists cannot create anything, they can only rail against those who do, and cry when they don’t get what they demand.
I would think your best chance at seeing the President would park by the drive through at the McDonalds on the Parks Highway. Probable 50/50 chance he needs a quick Double QuarterPounder with a few sides. If RFK Jr. is accompanying him you might check the back roads for possible porcupine vehicle collisions. Both are hunches at best.
The Wasilla Airport is right behind the Menard Center. The POTUS *might* land at JBER, then helicopter to Wasilla Airport, then be driven a mile to the Center, never touching the Parks Hwy. That would be the fastest and safest route.
Pretty sure the ticket abusers are already accounted for. The RSVP’s are for far more seats than available as they would want the venue pretty full. The RSVP is not a guarantee one will get a seat as it is still first come first served. The nefarious ticket rsvp abusers won’t be displacing anyone.
Counter protestors will be there in force too. Organizing at this moment. A very strong MAGA team will be assembled and if it get rough physically, the mentally disturbed anti -Trumpers are going to get it good and feel the wrath. Promises made……and promises will be kept.
Threatening violence is so Trumpian.
