The anti-Trump demonstrations have been fast and furious ever since he entered into office, and have continued throughout this President’s Day Weekend.

Today thousands will again take to the streets in cities across the country for Not My President’s Day protests.

Rallies are planned in a number of cities, including New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Atlanta, Kansas City, Salt Lake City and Washington, D.C.

Demonstrators are calling on the Trump administration to stop threatening the immigrant and refugee community, and to not come after women, the LGBTQ community, or the scientific community, among others. Some are expressly calling for Trump’s impeachment, such as Atlanta’s ImPEACH NOW! march.

Meanwhile, Trump has wished everyone a happy President’s Day on Twitter, in all caps, along with his campaign slogan.
