Mass Protests Sweep the Nation Against Trump Administration
In a significant display of public dissent, millions across the United States rallied in cities both large and small today, voicing their opposition to President Trump and his administration’s policies.
The demonstrations, orchestrated by “No Kings,” a coalition of progressive organizations, marked the third major protest wave since Trump’s re-election. Large-scale protests previously occurred in June and October of last year.
Crowds assemble at the Embarcadero in San Francisco prior to the start of the protest.
