The rallies and marches, organized by the fledgling 50501 Movement, mark the latest attempt at national resistance to Trump's "Make America Great Again" base and the success it has had in reshaping the Republican Party in the president's populist image.

Protesters face a myriad of issues to push back against, from tariffs to Trump's reset on the war in Ukraine to the aggressive actions of the Department of Government Efficiency led by billionaire Elon Musk. Demonstrators carried signs addressing various topics, including climate change, education cuts, and vaccine science denial.

The diverse range of issues and the widespread participation highlight the challenges and determination of those opposing Trump's sweeping agenda.
