Where are protests against the Trump administration and Elon Musk happening, and what are they about? Everything, everywhere, all at once, reports @thenewrepublic. Hundreds of people showed up at Stonewall to demonstrate against the erasure of the words "queer" and "transgender" from the National Parks Service web page. The Indivisible Project is organizing protests around Tesla dealerships. People are showing up outside hospitals that have denied care to trans kids, and in the neighborhoods where ICE is active. "The Women’s Marches of 2017 took place in hundreds of cities and towns across the country, but only once and on one day," writes Melissa Gira Grant. "Eight years later, in a sense, the scene of the crime is everywhere."
