Nationwide protests, dubbed "Hands Off!", were held against President Trump's administration and Elon Musk's influence in government downsizing. Over 1,200 demonstrations were organized by various groups, facing issues like federal worker layoffs, social service cuts, and human rights concerns. Speaker Paul Osadebe emphasized the exploitation by billionaires, claiming they prioritize profit over people's welfare. The rallies, including significant participation in Washington and Boston, demanded the protection of democracy, Social Security, and equity, highlighting the growing dissent against perceived threats to economic stability and marginalized communities.
Billionaires and oligarchs don't value anything other than profit and power, and they sure as hell don't value you or your life or your community.
We’re seeing that they don’t care who they have to destroy or who they have to hurt to get what they want.
The protests reflect a significant pushback against government downsizing, the economy, and protections for marginalized communities.
The 'Hands Off!' demonstrations illustrate a coalition of voices advocating for the protection of democracy and various social programs.
