       Protesters poured into the streets across the country again on Saturday in the second wave of demonstrations this month, as organizers seek to turn discontent with Donald Trump’s presidency into a mass movement that will eventually translate into ballot box action.Large protests took place from east coast to west, in major cities like Washington, New York and Chicago, as well as Rhode Island, Maryland, Wisconsin, Tennessee, South Carolina, among many others. Americans abroad also signalled their opposition to the Trump agenda in the Irish capital of Dublin and other cities.In San Francisco, protesters formed a human chain to spell out the words, “Impeach Remove!” while holding the American flag upside down.Protests cut across party lines, organizers sayThe 50501 movement behind the “Hands Off” protests said it was seeking to send a message to opposition politicians and ordinary voters -- that vocal resistance to Trump’s policies was essential. It also said that demonstrators were supporters of different parties.“We have registered Democrats, registered independents and registered Republicans all marching because they all believe in America, because they all believe in a fair government that puts people before profits,” said organizer Heather Dunn. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/19/anti-trump-rallies-protests?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other
