Protest moved to this afternoon as Trump leaves early

UPDATE: Protest organizers now say they will meet at 4:30 p.m. in the Publix parking lot off Southern Boulevard just east of I-95 and spread out from there.

EARLIER STORY: As President Donald Trump and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe plan to leave Palm Beach today, protesters say they will line Southern Boulevard as the president heads to Palm Beach International Airport.

The protest was scheduled to begin at 8 p.m. but was moved up to start at 1:30 p.m. after organizers heard that Trump changed plans and would head to PBIA from Mar-a-Lago in the afternoon.

Michelle Kendall with the group Indivisible – The Resistance told the Post earlier this week that protesters want to call Trump's attention to several pipeline projects in the works in the United States, including the Dakota Access and Keystone XL pipelines, and the Sabal Trail pipeline in Florida.

"We are determined to be heard," Kendall said Saturday night in an email to The Post. "We will not be avoided! This is too important for us to walk away because of a time change."
