Demonstrators gathered in cities across the U.S. on Wednesday to protest the Trump administration’s early actions, decrying everything from the president’s immigration crackdown to his rollback of transgender rights and a proposal to forcibly transfer Palestinians from the Gaza Strip.
…
The protests were a result of a movement that has organized online under the hashtags #buildtheresistance and #50501, which stands for 50 protests, 50 states, one day. Websites and accounts across social media issued calls for action, with messages such as “reject fascism” and “defend our democracy.”

BONUS
You guys planted the landmine in your redneck analogy lmao.
Oh and it’s “your”, not “you’re”. For someone who only speaks one language you sure are imbecilic.
I would much rather have a typo from typing quickly than be an asshole. I think it’s clear who’s who.
Yup, you sure are an idiot.
Take your assumptions and your child-like arguing somewhere else
Actually you replied to me first, so unkindly fuck off.
