Thousands of protesters

rallied in Washington and other cities across the U.S. on

Saturday to voice their opposition to President Donald Trump's

policies on deportations, government firings, and the wars in

Gaza and Ukraine.



Outside the White House, protesters carried banners that

read "Workers should have the power," "No kingship," "Stop

arming Israel" and "Due process," media footage showed.



Some demonstrators chanted in support of migrants whom the

Trump administration has deported or has been attempting to

deport while expressing solidarity with people fired by the

federal government and with universities whose funding is

threatened by Trump.



"As Trump and his administration mobilize the use of the

U.S. deportation machine, we are going to organize networks and

systems of resistance to defend our neighbors," a protester said

in a rally at Lafayette Square near the White House.
