Protesters rally against Trump, Musk in ‘Hands Off!’ gatherings nationwide

Published

Demonstrators carry signs during a "Hands Off!" protest against President Donald Trump and Elon Musk at the Washington Monument in Washington, D.C., Saturday.

Thousands of protesters gathered across the U.S. Saturday to object to Trump administration policies, including Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) federal downsizing, reciprocal tariffs and immigration reform.

More than 1,200 “Hands Off!” rallies took place in all 50 states, most prominently at the National Mall in Washington, D.C., and state capitol buildings.

While most protests appear to be peaceful, there was a large police presence on standby as of 4:30 p.m. ET Saturday.

 

Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., spoke at the rally in D.C., saying, “We are winning every day,” citing recent legal actions against the administration.

“We are winning in court, where 39 judges appointed by five Republican and Democratic presidents have issued 56 preliminary injunctions and TROs [temporary restraining orders] against this lawlessness,” Raskin said. “Let’s tell MAGA what democratic movements all over the world tell the dictators of the world. Hands off the courts.”

He called the president an “economy-crashing dictator” who “knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.”

When asked about the protests, the White House said in a statement to The Associated Press, “President Trump’s position is clear: He will always protect Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid for eligible beneficiaries. Meanwhile, the Democrats’ stance is giving Social Security, Medicaid and Medicare benefits to illegal aliens, which will bankrupt these programs and crush American seniors.”

The National Park Service told Fox News in a statement it commends its employees, including its police officers, who “helped to ensure these events were peaceful and safe for community members and visitors alike.”

“In support of President Trump’s Executive Order, Making the District of Columbia Safe and Beautiful, our dedicated Park Police officers promoted a welcoming environment, secured the historic monuments in our nation’s capital, and protected the First Amendment rights of all in attendance,” a National Park Service spokesperson wrote in the statement.

 

Large turnouts have been reported in New York City’s midtown Manhattan; Cleveland, Ohio; Philadelphia; and Lansing, Michigan.

Protesters held signs opposing the Israel-Hamas war, federal employee layoffs, deportation policies and the slashing of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs.

Anti-Elon Musk posters were also prominent, with DOGE coming under fire for its recent actions.
