Some 1,200 demonstrations are planned in the USA. UU. On Saturday in what the organizers hope to be the unique biggest protest against President Donald Trump and his billionaire ally of Elon Musk since the administration launched its quick effort to put a conservative seal in the government.
Hours before the “hands outside!” The protests had to begin, hundreds of anti-trump Americans who live in Europe met in Berlin, Frankfurt, Paris and London to express the opposition to Trump’s renewal change of US foreign and national policies.
About 200 people, mostly Americans, gathered in Paris’ Republique placeListen to speeches and shake banners that range from ‘resist the tyrant’, the ‘rule of law’ to ‘feminist for freedom, not fascism’ and ‘save democracy’.
“We have to show solidarity with all the demonstrations in a thousand cities today in the United States,” said Democrats spokesman Timothy Kautz, in Frankfurt. The protester José Sánchez said that Trump was a scammer who was destroying American democracy.
Protests in the United States will give Trump opponents the opportunity to demonstrate their mass disgust in response to the Trump executive orders series.
“This is a huge manifestation that is sending a very clear message to the Republicans of musk and Trump and Congress and all the allies of Maga who do not want us not to want in our democracy, in our communities, in our schools and our friends and our neighbors,” said Ezra Levin, co -founder of indivisible, one of the groups that organize the events of Saturday.
The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comments from Trump or musk.
Some 150 activist groups have registered to participate, according to the event website. Events are planned in the 50 most Canada and Mexico states. One of the largest demonstrations is expected at the National Washington Shopping Center.
Trump returned to the position on January 20 with a flow of executive orders and other measures that critics say they are aligned with an agenda described by the 2025 project, a deeply conservative political initiative to remodel the government and consolidate the presidential authority.
His supporters have applauded Trump’s audacity as necessary to interrupt entrenched liberal interests.
The White House assistant press secretary, Liz Huston, played the position of the protesters that Trump aimed to reduce Social Security and Medicaid.
“The position of President Trump is clear: Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid will always protect for eligible beneficiaries. Meanwhile, the posture of the Democrats is giving social security benefits, Medicaid and Medicare illegal foreigners, who breaks these programs and will crush the elderly American people,” Huston said in an email.
Much of Trump’s agenda has been restricted by demands that claim that he has exceeded his authority with the attempts to fire public officials, deport immigrants and revenge inverse rights.
Pro-Palestinian groups that oppose the renewed military action of the ally of the United States Israel in Gaza and the repression of the Trump administration against the protests of the campus will also participate in Washington and will plan to carry out a march, the protest groups said in a statement.
At the beginning of Trump’s first term in 2017, hundreds of thousands of people joined the march of women in Washington to demonstrate the opposition.
This year’s protests have been smaller, but activist leaders have planned to join for a large -scale event, Levin said.
Indivisible, which was formed after Trump’s first election in 2016, has worked with other liberal groups, including Moveon and Working Families Party, to unite progressive organizations throughout the country.
Among the organizations committed to participating are the International Union of Service Employees, a work union that represents about 2 million workers; Human Rights Campaign, the largest LGBTQ Defense Group in the United States; and the Greenpeace environmental group.
