There have been numerous protests against Donald Trump and his Administration. According to USA Today, there were reportedly 2085 protests against the Trump Administration in February alone (https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2025/04/05/trump-protest-rallies-hands-off/82868543007/).
This is not unexpected. Notice some excerpts from my article 25 items to prophetically watch in 2025:
15. Unrest, Terror, and the Dividing of the USA …
Jesus taught:
25 Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand. (Matthew 12:25) …
Expect protests, including violence, in the USA. …
Donald Trump will be apocalyptic. At least 20 warnings/predictions I made before his last Administration assumed office came to pass (for details see Donald Trump in Prophecy).
Look for Donald Trump and His Administration to … further divide many in the United States.
Now one such divisive protest that has covered much of the USA today is called the ‘Hands Off’ protest.
Here is some information about it:

What are ‘Hands Off’ Protest?
The nationwide protests are aimed at holding President Trump accountable for his controversial actions. The “Hands Off” protests aim to protect democratic institutions and processes from what many believe to be Trump’s harmful policies and power grabs. https://www.hindustantimes.com/world-news/us-news/hands-off-protest-anti-trump-posters-viral-on-social-media-ahead-of-nationwide-demonstrations-101743857103134.html

Jessica Sato attends the “Hands off” protest in Washington, DC, on April 5, 2025. Sato, 36, was visiting Washington from Detroit and decided to come to the protest on the National Mall with friends. “To be honest, I’ve had the privilege of not being directly affected by a lot of policy changes (in) really any administration. But I care about people, and I think that’s what Americans need to do. We need to care about our fellow Americans, and I’m here to stand up for the rights of everyone who can’t stand up for themselves, or just to show support and make it clear that our rights are everyone’s rights,” Sato said. https://www.usatoday.com/picture-gallery/news/nation/2025/04/05/hands-of-protests-50-states-photos/82870935007/

5 April 2025
Left-leaning organizations say that more than 500,000 people are expected to take to the streets to protest in Washington DC, Florida and elsewhere around the country on Saturday to oppose Donald Trump’s “authoritarian overreach and billionaire-backed agenda”.
MoveOn, one of the organizations planning the day of protest they’re calling Hands Off along with dozens of labor, environmental and other progressive groups, said that more than 1,000 protests are planned across the US, including at state capitols.
“This is shaping up to be the biggest single-day protest in the last several years of American history,” Ezra Levin, a founder of Indivisible, one of the groups planning the event, said on a recent organizing call. …
The protests come after the stock market plummeted this week following Trump’s 1 April announcement of tariffs. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/05/anti-trump-protests-hands-off
I decided to ask Meta AI who funded the Hands Off protest today, April 5, 2025. Here is the response I got:
The “Hands Off!” protests are a collective effort backed by over 150 organizations, including civil rights groups, labor unions, LGBTQ+ advocates, veterans, and fair-elections activists. These protests are planned across all 50 states, with over 1,200 demonstrations scheduled ¹ ².
Some of the notable organizations supporting the movement include ³:
-
Indivisible: A progressive advocacy group
-
Third Act: Founded by Bill McKibben, focusing on environmental and social justice
-
Reproductive Freedom for All: Advocating for reproductive rights
-
50501 Movement: A grassroots organization promoting economic and social justice
-
ACLU: American Civil Liberties Union, protecting individual rights and freedoms
-
Planned Parenthood Action Fund: Promoting reproductive health and rights
The movement’s primary objectives are ³ ⁴:
-
Preserve Social Safety Nets: Protecting Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid from cuts
-
Protect Marginalized Communities: Strengthening protections for immigrants, LGBTQ+ individuals, and other vulnerable groups
So, this looks like it is somewhat being funded by those who are opposed to biblical sexual morality and those who want more babies to be killed. It is my understanding that the majority opinion of all of those groups is pro-abortion and pro-LGBTQ.
As far as the mainstream media goes, it tends to emphasize that the protests it likes are peaceful or “mostly peaceful.” With “mostly peaceful” meaning that there was violence and/or destruction but that most protesters were not involved. But abortion is not at all peaceful.
It should be pointed out that the mainstream media has long downplayed or ignored violence against anti-abortion activists or facilities, as well as much of the violence from Antifa or BLM.
That said, the Bible warns that more problems will hit a corrupt people:
5 They have corrupted themselves; They are not His children, Because of their blemish: A perverse and crooked generation. … 25 The sword shall destroy outside; There shall be terror within (Deuteronomy 32:5,25)
25 Because you disdained all my counsel, And would have none of my rebuke, 26 I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your terror comes, 27 When your terror comes like a storm, And your destruction comes like a whirlwind, When distress and anguish come upon you. (Proverbs 1:25-27)
6 You have forsaken Me,” says the Lord,
“You have gone backward.
Therefore I will stretch out My hand against you and destroy you;
I am weary of relenting!
7 And I will winnow them with a winnowing fan in the gates of the land;
I will bereave them of children;
I will destroy My people,
Since they do not return from their ways.
8 Their widows will be increased to Me more than the sand of the seas;
I will bring against them,
Against the mother of the young men,
A plunderer at noonday;
I will cause anguish and terror to fall on them suddenly. (Jeremiah 15:6-8)
Consider the following as applicable to the many today:
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; 29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality…30…violent, proud, boasters,…31…unmerciful; (Romans 1:28-31)
We are in a generation that the Bible warns about:
11 There is a generation that curses its father,
And does not bless its mother.
12 There is a generation that is pure in its own eyes,
Yet is not washed from its filthiness.
13 There is a generation — oh, how lofty are their eyes!
And their eyelids are lifted up.
14 There is a generation whose teeth are like swords,
And whose fangs are like knives, (Proverbs 30:11-14)
This is a generation that thinks filth is pure.
Notice another generational warning:
5 “They have corrupted themselves; They are … A perverse and crooked generation. (Deuteronomy 32:5)
Protests, per se, like we are seeing are not the answer for the USA.
The USA needs national repentance and the return of Jesus and the Kingdom of God.
