Demonstrators have gathered in cities across the U.S. to protest the Trump administration’s early actions.

Summary

Thousands protested across the U.S. against Trump’s policies, Project 2025, and Elon Musk’s role in the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

Demonstrators rallied against Trump’s immigration actions, rollback of transgender rights, and proposed forced transfers of Palestinians. Many expressed concerns over Musk’s access to Treasury data, fearing privacy risks.

Protests occurred in multiple state capitals, with arrests in Iowa and strong opposition in Alabama over LGBTQ+ policies.

Organized under #buildtheresistance, the movement signals growing resistance to Trump’s administration and its sweeping policy changes.

    Why the fuck does it always say stuff like “Trumps policies” or “his actions as president”. What theyre doing is mostly illegal, it has nothing to do with being president. People are protesting against a fascist takeover, which has already happened.

    If I stage a fascist takeover would the headline be “people all over the US protesting tomi000’s actions as a US citizen”?

      have you considered how offensive it is to some of us for you to frame this conversation in terms that aren’t profitable or even palatable for corporate news media?
