Nationwide Protests Against Trump Administration's Policies Erupt

Mass protests erupted across the United States in response to President Donald Trump's administration, particularly targeting his policies on immigration, transgender rights, and the controversial Project 2025. Demonstrators gathered in various states, including California, Michigan, and Texas, organized under hashtags like #buildtheresistance and #50501, which called for nationwide action against what they view as an attack on democracy. Protesters expressed concerns over billionaire Elon Musk's involvement in the government, particularly his role in the newly established Department of Government Efficiency and his access to sensitive data. Many protesters described the situation as a coup, arguing that Trump's actions align closely with the agenda outlined in Project 2025. In Washington D.C., thousands protested cuts to U.S. humanitarian aid, criticizing Musk's alleged takeover of USAID and calling for legislative action to protect civil rights and government integrity. Overall, the protests reflect a growing discontent among various groups regarding the direction of the Trump administration and its implications for democracy.
