This is also reported along with photos from the scenes by CBS.
Demonstrations are spreading nationwide. Over the past two weeks, participants have taken to the streets of US cities with slogans: "Not my president," "No kings," "This is a coup," "Cowards bow to Trump, patriots rise up!", "Musk must go," and others.
Citizens are protesting against pressure on immigrants and budget cuts. The largest rallies have swept through Florida and California. Even in other states where it's not as warm, protesters are taking to the streets.
Media outlets have reported hundreds of demonstrators, particularly during the "No Kings" rally. At the protests, people condemn Trump’s policies and that of his advisor – billionaire and head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) Elon Musk, who, according to the administration, was appointed to reduce federal spending.
Nearly 1,000 people in Boston marched through the snow to City Hall, chanting "Elon Musk must go" and other slogans. One of the protesters' signs depicted Uncle Sam with the caption: "I want you to resist."
"American values are not the values of plutocracy or a handful of limited billionaires," quoted journalists 55-year-old Emily Manning, a Boston engineer who attended the rally with her two teenage sons.
It is worth noting that every third Monday in February, the USA celebrates Presidents' Day (the birthday of George Washington). This federal holiday was established in 1879 in honor of the first US president, George Washington, who was born on February 22, 1800. This year, Presidents' Day fell on February 17.
Previously, it was reported that Donald Trump referred to himself as "king" after the toll for entering Manhattan was lifted. On social media, he wrote: "Long live the king!" Alongside this, an image of him wearing a crown supposedly appeared on the cover of Time magazine.
