A national day of action against President Donald Trump and his administration has united an outpouring of protesters across the country who are rallying in defiance of what they describe as a relentless assault on democratic institutions and civil liberties.
Pretty good job, CNN. Keep up the good work
After the Floyd incident, Trump tried to use the insurection act against the protests. He will oppress those who oppose Trump. Please take care of yourself.
Vote , just don't vote for magats!
"In defense of what they describe" Get off your knees you cowards. Capitulating to fascists doesn't work.
As annoying and cloying as the writing is, at least they reported on it. 2-3 million people take to the streets on the same day in 700 locations, and MSNBC can't seem to notice it. Makes me wonder what else isn't getting reported by legacy media.
Go America. Go!
It is a “relentless assault on democratic institutions and civil liberties.”

You keep referring to the deportation of Garcia- totally misleading as we protest the imprisonment in a notorious prison from which people only leave when dead. Deportation is much kinder.
Good headline
Well, look at you reporting on this, of course then you had to screw it up with "what they describe as." Dictatorship seem fun to you people at CNN? Any of you read history books or watch documentaries? JFC
Cool. Next time vote smarter.
Thank you one and all! For showing up, for standing up, for being a star in a constellation of bright gleaming hope. You’ve all given of yourselves, but also for some of us who are there in spirit but haven’t the means to stand with you physically. This is what King DT needs to see - his ‘subjects’
What they describe??
They are 'OUR VALUABLE FELLOW AMERICAN CITIZENS INCLUDING MILLIONS WHO VOTED FOR MR.PRESIDENT UNAWARE OF WHAT HE WAS TO DO TO THEIR JOBS VIA ELON, ELON'S GANG OF WANKER GEEK LOOKING FIRING SQUAD AND OTHERS! Mr.President must understand that and take back all he&his crew did pissing citizens off!!
Even their kids dying of measles doesn't change their minds... i don't think there's anything we can do these people are just absolutely heartless
Thank you for reporting on this
I was a part here in NJ! I loved it!
it's insane that in 2025 united states we're having to shield ourselves from the non-stop shit cannon that is our own fascist dimwitted leader idiocracy was kind. this is worse than predicted.
CNN go fuck yourselves. You sold us out. When America is left destroyed and the world is in shambles, the biggest complicity crown will belong to the coward, greedy MSM! Want to change it and gain credibility back? Start covering these protests. Live! Call him the lying pig he is. Until then? 🖕🏼
This article is literally on the front page of their site at the very top. They're are talking about the protests but they're not going to drop their programming to go live all day long to cover protests, you can find that online. No one will watch. I want them to, but I get why they're not.
Weird. I watched live protests on YouTube until my local protest started. After I got back I watched again. It’s also their bullshit headline. It placates to the regime. “What they describe as a relentless assault”? No. That’s what it is. They leave just enough for KKK Leavitt to spin.
As I said, you can find that online, I'm talking about their cable TV channel. They'll preempt the news for a week when a politician dies but not for much else. They have a 30 min format for the day time though so it's not a long story but they hit it every half hour. 🤷♂️ You can stream anything.
💯
Keep resisting!

Now #vote Get grandma and your nephew off the sofa, talk to your neighbours. Seize this energy and don’t let #trump direct the narrative, come the #midterms.
The American Spring
Go, go, go Americans, don't let this cruel clown and dictator destroy your democracy.
“in defiance of what they describe” Fuck all the way off CNN.
What “they” describe. How would YOU describe it, CNN? Totally normal?
Another false photo ! Reported Dec 1 2024in NY post then the other day by Homan the border tzar
“Over 80” protests… with a link to a random site? @cnn.com, c’mon. Why not actually link to fiftyfifty.one - oh right, because then you’d have to report that there were actually over 750 #April19 #DefendDemocracy events on Saturday?!
YES!!! Let’s go, America! Sending lots of love and cheering you on from Canada! 🇨🇦
We haven’t forgotten our friends, thanks Canada. The Watertown New York protest had a Canadian flag in the crowd, saw more in other cities’ protests too.
Amazing! Thanks so much for sharing, it really means a lot.
The people no longer consent as the governed! End this tyranny now! IMPEACH!
I’d sit this one out if I were you @cnn.com. Your behavior throughout this coup has been despicable.
Is there a question as to whether "a relentless assault on democratic institutions and civil liberties" is happening?
Only in the minds of legacy media operators…

They need a program w a leader. Protest is like criticism, a nowhere thing. Trump knows he upsets. This is a transmutation of his sex energy no mas. Mr. Flaccid.
GOP better hide. They'll be coming for them when they miss their SS cheques.
I love this. My family has been here since 1671. I assume my ancestors encountered a lot of defiance and animosity. In fact, my primary ancestor was a rabble rouser and has had books written about his defiance. I guess I come by it naturally.
🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
I am glad so many people are out admitting that they are racist bigots.
Absolutely Fantastic..
The only MARGINAL credit this farcical "news corporation" gets is for FINALLY acknowledging that people are PISSED ALL THE WAY FUCKING OFF and protesting this bat shit crazy regime. Other than that? CNN, kindly lick my taint, it's nice and sweaty for ya.
Probably pretty nasty tasting!
I'd hope so, for their sake. They deserve it.
Understand that even when you peacefully protest, Trump and Fox News are just dying to call you terrorists. Declaring Martial Law is all Trump, Peter Navarro, Russell Vought and the rest of the MAGA mental patients dream of. That is the suggested reason they’re crashing the economy on purpose.
I'm not terribly worried about martial law, the only good thing about 2A is that the US govt couldn't possibly disarm or quell an American people if there is an uprising and martial law could certainly spark that. The US military has a few hundred thousand soldiers - 100m+ citizens have 500m+ guns.
Action is also possible internationally, to stop destruction by Trump and Musk.
Hmmm…that’s a lot of protesting for someone who claims he has a mandate
Impeachable event, the DOGE hackers have set back America by decades. Data theft fro6m Russian IP address stole government data within minutes of them arriving at a government department with CORRECT log in credentials!!!!!!!!!!!!
Where’s the proof that this happen? If you can’t provide facts and where you got it from then it didn’t happen!
The computer says yes. www.bankinfosecurity.com/whistleblowe...
You ran away?
A bit like what's coming for big balls and his cohort of hackers that screwed over the American people. The long arm of the Feds are coming for them and the charge will be espionage and treason. Muskovite should private jet to Moscow before the proverbial hits the fan. DOGE plea bargains incoming.
About time. The Trump- Musk regime won't be bothered, though. If and only if state governors refuse Trumps access to the National Guard, he will use the Army and Marines. Sans rubber bullets.
We have about 2 million troops but 100+ million citizens with 500m+ pew pews - Push too hard and you can't quell or disarm the public. 2A takes a lot from us but gives us this one useful thing - US citizens own more pew pews than all of the militaries of the world combined and it's not close.
Were there Republicans participating in this outpouring? If so any guesses on %’s?
"In Washington, DC, protesters assembled outside the White House and the residence of Vice President JD Vance, who is currently in Rome, where he was meeting with a senior Vatican official on Saturday..." "A senior Vatican official" because the Pope wouldn't see him. 😆

Where are all the powerfull oponents ?
Finally, media coverage.
Ahhhhh, the paid protesters are at it again!
Power to the people!! We vow to keep going until the tyrant is overthrown and we have: ✅Citizen's United overturned ✅Universal health care ✅Billionaire tax ✅Minimum wage increase ✅Free higher education ✅Childcare support ✅Union's strengthened ✅Campaign finance reform ✅Roe v Wade enshrined
"What they call" It literally is that. That is what is happening.
Felon Trump, not President Trump
'Project 2025' is running.
Keep it up! They have my full support!
"what they describe" is a pretty shit way to describe the objectively unconstitutional behavior from the Republicans. Interview constitutional lawyers, do better journalism. Be better.
I hope you report it this time.
It's powerful to see so many voices coming together for democracy and civil rights. This kind of collective action can lead to meaningful change, and it's crucial to keep the pressure on. Let's hope this momentum continues to inspire a robust civic engagement.
Interesting wording, “what they describe as a relentless assault on democratic institutions and civil liberties.” As if there’s a question of what’s actually happening. CNN is pathetic. How they have disgraced themselves in this moment.
I thought the same exact thing about their wording. They took the knee. Shame on them. Not to mention having to dig through all sorts of "fluff" pieces to even find mention of the protests.
Where is the DNC? Where is the message to mobilize, organize, get volunteers to get out the vote for local, state and midterms Where is their Discord and Substack Where's their message on the SAVE Act Where's comms, need to be on EVERY podcast, streamer
