Trump protests draw thousands in South Florida. 'Can't sit home any longer'
Briefly

Thousands of protesters gathered in South Florida during a national day of action against President Trump and his policies, motivated by fear and anger. In Miami, large crowds marched holding signs depicting their dissent, with activists voicing concerns over immigration policies, tariffs, and perceived governmental overreach. The atmosphere was charged with energy as participants expressed a clear demand for change, seeking to transform their discontent into action against what they called a brazen power grab by the administration.
"I can't sit home any longer," said Todd Katzman, 57, of Fort Lauderdale, as he looked across Young Circle at a crowd estimated by organizers at about 2,000. Many waved American flags and signs that said things like "deport fascists not families" and "resist."
One marcher, Brice Ciener, carried an American flag that was totally blacked out. Explaining the message he was intending to convey, Ciener said, "There have been four or five reasons throughout history, but one has been rebel or resist against the current movement of your government."
Similar messages - "Make America Think Again" and "You know it's bad when other countries protest for OUR RIGHTS" - were displayed by some 500 people who gathered at the Torch of Friendship.
