Nationwide Protests Planned During Trump’s Parade

Axios reports:

Protestors are taking to the streets and community hubs nationwide on June 14 in what organizers expect will be the largest single-day anti-President Trump rally since the start of the administration. The widespread movement will run counter to Trump’s multimillion dollar military parade in D.C.
