‘Free America’ protesters organize nationwide walkout on anniversary of Trump’s return to office

Published



Nationwide protests against President Donald Trump are taking place on Tuesday afternoon, marking critics’ latest effort to frame him as a fascist.

The “Free America” protests will launch at 2 p.m., when thousands across the country are set to join in walking out of work, school, and commerce. The protests fall on the first anniversary of Trump’s second inauguration. They are being organized by Women’s March, a liberal group known for hosting massive events in Washington. Indivisible, which helped organize demonstrations against Tesla founder Elon Musk and Trump during the sweeping “No Kings” protests last year, is among those partnering to launch the initiative, along with groups such as the American Civil Liberties Union.
