Thousands Protest Trump Policies Nationwide on Aug. 2

News summary

On August 2, tens of thousands participated in 'Rage Against the Regime' protests across over 400 U.S. cities, organized by the 50501 Movement and local partners to oppose Trump administration policies. Demonstrations took place in states including Florida, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Missouri, Tennessee, and New York, focusing on aggressive immigration enforcement, attacks on transgender rights, cuts to Medicaid and SNAP, dismantling federal agencies, and demands for the release of Jeffrey Epstein files. Organizers emphasized nonviolent action and community building, featuring speeches, art installations, and donation drives for affected families. The protests reflected concerns about perceived authoritarianism and threats to democracy. August 2 also coincided with Vice President JD Vance's birthday, but organizers said this was coincidental. The 50501 Movement has led previous mass mobilizations like 'No Kings' and 'Good Trouble Lives On.'
