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.

    Yup, that’s (one of) the (many) roots of the problem. The Supreme Court if a subsidiary of the Republican Party, and they’ve officially declared Trump above the law. Other subsidiaries own the Senate and House, so there’s nothing holding Trump back from doing everything Musk and his other handlers have always dreamed of.
