Widespread protests continue across the U.S. with hundreds gathering outside Los Angeles City Hall on Wednesday and nationwide. Demonstrators are against President Donald Trump’s executive orders, including his immigration crackdown, rollback of transgender rights, as well as his proposal for Gaza.
Hundreds of protesters gathered outside Los Angeles City Hall on Wednesday, marking the fourth day of demonstrations against U.S. President Donald Trump’s latest policies.

14-year-old protester Lizeth Rivera explained, "I've seen a lot of hatred, whether it be towards trans, LGBTQ, Latinos, all types of communities have been just, there's just so much bias and hatred out there. I've been a victim of it. And I thought this is a perfect moment. History is being made right in front of me. I will come out here and I will stand for what I believe in."
Emily Kuffner, a 48-year-old Spanish teacher, shared her frustration: "In 2016 we didn't know what he was really going to do in office. But now we know. I don't know.

Demonstrators are calling for the defence of democracy and rejecting Trump’s policies. Along with criticizing the President, some protesters also voiced opposition to billionaire Elon Musk, who now heads Trump’s new Department of Government Efficiency.
