Thousands rally against Trump in nationwide "Not My Presidents Day" protests

Thousands rallied against President Trump in D.C. and across the U.S. on Monday to protest policies including his administration's efforts to make sweeping cuts to government agencies and jobs and its push to deport undocumented immigrants.

The big picture: The President's Day protest, driven by the 50501 Movement, a grassroots effort, also featured signs protesting Elon Musk, the billionaire face of DOGE.

Protest organizers said the rallies were against "anti-democratic and illegal actions of the Trump administration and its plutocratic allies."

Many protesters turned out in cities impacted by polar-vortex related frigid temperatures.
