Mass protests in the United States against Trump’s government
Hundreds of anti -government protests against President Donald Trump’s government have been held in the United States.
From Wyoming to Washington and Mississippi to Manhattan, the protests were held yesterday under the motto « 50501 », the name of a decentralized initiative launched on the Reddit social network, aimed at organizing protests in all 50 federal states to be held on February 5. According to a spokesman for the movement, these are pro -democratic activists fighting excessive executive with non -violent resistance. Protests on April 5 were held under the motto « Hands away ».
Yesterday’s protests coincided with the 250th anniversary of the start of the US Revolutionary War. Instead of classical demonstrations, organizers called for « Action Day » to remind poor immigration policy, economic instability and federal labor cuts. During the protest, there were work actions for cleaning neighborhoods and collecting food and donation hygiene products.
Thousands of protesters gathered at the Washington National Allia with a request to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was deported to El Salvador. The protest merged with the strike of the employees of the Consumer Protection Bureau, whose staff was shortened by 90 %. The purpose of the criticism was Ilon Musk and his Dogo service.
There were also counter -protests, but they were not an obstacle for the major protests to pass peacefully, although there were arrests of protesters due to alleged attacks on police. Protests were held at other locations in front of the White House and Vice President’s residence, while organizers said mutual help was a way of resistance and solidarity.
Mass prosthets were also held yesterday in New York, Los Angeles and several other cities.
