Hundreds of thousands of people in the U.S. and around the world rallied Thursday in May Day protests that united many in anger over President Donald Trump’s agenda from aggressive tariffs that are stoking fears of global economic turmoil to his administration’s immigration crackdowns.
In the United States, organizers framed this year’s International Workers’ Day protests as a pushback against what they see as the administration’s sweeping assault on labor protections, diversity initiatives and federal employees. Protesters lined streets in many cities from New York to Philadelphia to Los Angeles and held a boisterous rally outside the White House in Washington.
It annoys me a bit that the local news seemed to cover this a bit better than the other ones and I feel because its mayday. They are like this is the largest mayday since such and such a time but its like hey you know all those other ones were just as large downtown. My local channel has been covering it but like just a blip at one news point before mayday. At least with this one the blurb continued from the afternoon to evening to morning blocks which should have been the case with the others. Should really have a blurb at the weekend ones to since to me those should sum up the week a bit.
