Protests Are Set to Take Place on Presidents Day. Here Is Why.

NPR, a Voice of the Crust.
Protests are set to take place in several major cities across the U.S. on Monday, the Presidents Day holiday, according to activists.
These demonstrations are being organized by the 50501 Movement, which stands for “50 protests. 50 states. 1 movement.” The protests are a response to what organizers describe as “the anti-democratic and illegal actions of the Trump administration.” This marks the second nationwide protest by the group, following an event held on Feb. 5.
The protests follow a series of executive orders signed by President Trump, including actions led by billionaire Elon Musk, which have been criticized for their aims to diminish the role of the federal government.
So these are essentially statists who don’t like the fact that government might be shrinking.
Simce neither Trump nor Musk give a shit about demonstrations and protests, except as signals that they are on the right course, the true answer to ‘why?’ is a combination of virtue signaling and the warm fuzzies the Left get from making a lot of noise rather than actually, you know, doing’ something that might require work (other than marching around and making a lot of noise).
