Thousands of people gather
The Washington Post monitored the gathering of thousands of people in front of Washington’s memorial on Saturday afternoon to protest the dismantling of Trump and a mask for federal agencies, the alleged fraud on due legal procedures and the imposition of customs duties.
The gathering in Washington, DC, on Saturday, was part of what the organizers said would be at least 1,300 other gathering under the slogan “Stay away from violence” planned by more than 150 groups in all fifty states.
The newspaper considered that the Saturday demonstrations were the largest protests against Trump since he returned to his post in January.
And the demonstrations in Washington held an official name, “Lift your hands about us: the People’s Vito Day,” according to Brett Jacovic, a spokeswoman for the liberal group Moveon.org, who was one of the organizers.

Jacovic said that people not only want Trump to lift his hands from the rights of abortion and civil rights issues, but also want to raise his hands from social security, medical care, federal workforce, the wider American economy, and much more.
Jacovic added that the expansion of the organized groups reflects the increasing opposition of Trump, Misk and the Republican Party in Washington.
“We are pretending to demand the end of Trump’s cowardly seizure of power and his behavior as if the law does not apply to it,” said Rachel Olry Carmona, Executive Director of the Women’s Movement, “The Women’s March”, a group that helped organize the demonstrations. Carmona added the women’s march that attracted 600,000 members this year alone.
Howard Bass, 77, a retired employee of the Smithsonian Foundation, arrived at the demonstration on Saturday from Arlington, Virginia, carrying a remarkable sign of 11 topics in which intervention is prohibited, including the Smithsonian Foundation, Academic Freedom, Greenland, Freedom of Expression, and Social Security.
Wide public opposition
The British newspaper “Observer” saw the demonstrations as a review of a large -scale mass opposition to the policies of the US President, the organizers hope to exacerbate to turn into a cycle of protests that might hinder Trump in Congress elections next year.
The newspaper pointed out that the anger of Trump and his billionaire assistant, Elon Musk, was manifested in a sea of banners at the Washington Commercial Center, and next to Washington’s memorial. Multiple messages denounced the closure of government agencies, reduced jobs and services, and threatening them – in explicit terms often – for American democracy.
“They believe that democracy is governed by the demise, and they believe that changing the system is coming to us if they only can seize our payment system,” Observer quoted Jimmy Raskin, the Democrat for Maryland, as saying.

The events of Saturday came after weeks of anxiety among the anti -Trump forces, that the president was quick to implement his agenda in the absence of sufficient resistance from Democrats in the Congress, and in the absence of the popular mass opposition that appeared at the beginning of his first presidency.
But it also came days after the Democrats were encouraged after they won a race against a vacant seat in the Supreme Court in Wisconsin, in which Musk invested $ 25 million from his own money to support the Republican candidate who was supported by Trump, to no avail.
Many speakers and attendees expressed their hope that the other American marches will encourage the hope of Trump’s policies to join future marches, giving the emerging protest movement momentum that is intense.
