Anti-Trump Protests Spread Across US on Independence Day

News summary

On the 249th Independence Day of the United States, thousands of Americans participated in protests nationwide against President Donald Trump's administration, specifically opposing his immigration raids, domestic policy bill cuts to Medicaid and SNAP, and perceived authoritarian governance. The protests, organized under themes like 'Free America,' voiced opposition to Trump's 'Big, Beautiful Bill,' which reallocates funds to boost ICE and reduces social safety-net programs, sparking fears of democratic erosion. In cities like Los Angeles, concerns over immigration enforcement led to the cancellation of traditional July Fourth events due to safety fears among immigrant communities. Protesters emphasized solidarity with new citizens and called for a reimagining of true freedom, contrasting celebratory patriotism with activism. While many Americans continued traditional celebrations such as cookouts and fireworks, the latter faced challenges due to increased tariffs on Chinese imports. These demonstrations reflect a divided national mood on independence and governance under President Trump’s current administration.
