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.”

Protesters hold up signs during a “Hands Off!” rally against the Trump administration at the Washington Monument in Washington, D.C., Saturday.

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.

A grieving husband shares the heartbreaking story of losing his wife during labor. His words paint a vivid picture of the financial struggles that many families face.

“If the economy were better, raising N500,000 wouldn’t have been so difficult. Despite working day and night, I couldn’t even boast of having N200,000 in my account. They said they had to remove the baby from her body, which would cost N150k. Then we had to buy burial clothes for another N20,000. Before we knew it, we had spent nearly N500,000 at the mortuary. Ironically, this was the same N500k that the hospital couldn’t wait for me to raise. In the end, we managed to raise it.”

Who is to be blamed? The grieving husband for not providing the money needed or the hospital? For demanding such amount before treatment?
