Massive protests in US as thousands rally against Trump and Elon Musk policies

Thousands of protesters across the United States have united in a massive demonstration against President Donald Trump’s administration and his ally Elon Musk. Over 1,200 protests were organised in all 50 states, supported by more than 150 groups including civil rights organisations, labour unions, and LGBTQ+ advocates. The ‘hands-off’ protests focus on opposition to federal layoffs, mass deportations, immigration policies, and what protesters describe as an expansion of presidential authority.
