Nationwide Protests Erupt Against Trump’s Policies and Project 2025

Activists across all 50 states are mobilizing to challenge President Trump’s controversial agenda.

A wave of resistance is set to sweep across the country as protesters in all 50 states gear up to oppose President Donald Trump’s latest policies and the controversial Project 2025.

With demonstrations planned from coast to coast under the rallying cry of #BuildTheResistance and #50501—representing 50 protests in 50 states on one day—organizers aim to send a clear message: they refuse to let this administration’s actions go unchecked.

Many of the protests will take place at state capitols, but activists are also mobilizing in major cities, using social media to spread awareness and coordinate efforts.

Time reports that flyers with messages such as “Reject Fascism” and “Defend Our Democracy” have flooded online platforms, reinforcing the movement's urgency.

Momentum has been building since the weekend when thousands of demonstrators took to the streets in Southern California to push back against Trump’s plans for mass deportations. In downtown Los Angeles, protesters even shut down a major freeway for hours, making their message impossible to ignore.

Now, with a coordinated nationwide effort about to unfold, organizers hope to amplify their voices and spark lasting change.
