Hands Off Protests Against Trump and Musk Policies Sweep the Nation

Protests erupted across the United States, including a significant demonstration in Los Angeles, as citizens rallied against policies associated with former President Donald Trump and Elon Musk. Dubbed the "Hands Off" protests, the movement criticizes Trump's recent political maneuvers and Musk's influence over digital currencies, notably Dogecoin.

The Los Angeles Times reported that the L.A. protest was part of a nationwide series of rallies, with participants voicing their opposition to what they perceive as detrimental policies. The Associated Press noted that these protests also targeted Musk's role in promoting Dogecoin, which has stirred controversy among investors and regulators alike.

NPR highlighted the visual impact of the protests, sharing photos that captured the scale and fervor of the gatherings. PBS's coverage emphasized the widespread nature of the movement, with over a thousand rallies occurring across the country, reflecting a broad base of public discontent.

The protests underscore a significant moment of public dissent, focusing on economic policies and digital currency issues that have far-reaching implications for American society.
