What sparked the nationwide protests on President's Day against the Trump administration?

On President's Day, protests erupted across the country in response to the actions of DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) and its team members throughout the federal government. As NBC News White House Correspondent Aaron Gilchrist reported, these demonstrations occurred in numerous cities, including Atlanta, showing widespread pushback against President Trump's governmental restructuring initiatives. The protests reflect growing concerns over DOGE's approach to identifying waste and fraud in federal agencies, which has led to controversies such as the resignation of Michelle King, the acting commissioner of the Social Security Administration, following demands for sensitive data. These demonstrations highlight the divided public opinion on the administration's centralized efficiency efforts.
