Over 400 Protests Against Trump Admin Scheduled to Take Place Nationwide on July 17
by Cassandra MacDonald Jul. 13, 2025 12:20 pm


Over 400 protests are scheduled to take place in all 50 states against President Donald Trump and his administration on July 17.

The rallies, being called “Good Trouble Lives On,” will take place on the anniversary of the death of Democrat activist and congressman John Lewis. It is a nod to his famous call to action, “Get in good trouble, necessary trouble,” which he used to encourage people to participate in protests.

As with many other recent nationwide days of protest, including the now-infamous “No Kings” day, it is being organized by the 50501 Movement.

The 50501 Movement’s name stands for “50 protests. 50 states. 1 movement.” It is self-described as being led by people who “have been on the front lines of justice, marching in support of Black Lives Matter, women’s rights, LGBTQ+ advocacy, and disability rights.”

According to the group’s website, “Good Trouble Lives On is a national day of action to respond to the attacks on our civil and human rights by the Trump administration. Together, we’ll remind them that in America, the power lies with the people.”

Dozens of liberal organizations are also partnering with and endorsing the protests, including Black Voters Matter, the League of Women Voters, the Southern Poverty Law Center, the Women’s March, the American Civil Liberties Union, and Greenpeace.

I'm so tired of these people. They're going to start getting a little taste of their own medicine if they keep up with this $#!t.

What do they think this is accomplishing? First Hands Off, then No Kings, now Good Trouble Lives On... one, pick a message, two, running around screaming in the streets every month isn't going to get anyone anywhere. You're just running around screaming in the streets, with people you likely already know. It's completely useless and ineffective.

Your tax dollars at work.  But heaven forbid we actually do anything about cutting out that funding.

I wonder how many government-funded NGOs Soros has.

They are employed morons. Pretty much a good bet this is paid astroturf from the git go with a scattering of idiots.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Pretty much sums it up. 15 years of politics and I can tell you that protests are at the low end of useful tools.

(That didn't work so well either).

A good percentage of the "protestors" are school teachers and college professors.

If they protest on a Thursday, will Alex Soros have their paychecks ready on Friday?
