Many have wondered why the surge of protests against President Donald Trump and his administration has been scattered and, compared to the usual vitriol, a tad muted. My suspicion is that thanks to Kamala Harris’ campaign excesses and the lawfare, the coffers and foot soldiers were depleted. Apparently, someone <*cough… George Soros…cough*> injected an infusion of cash to fund astroturf protests on Wednesday across the 50 United States capitals.
The 50501 Movement—or 50 states, 50 protests, one day—is garnering support throughout social media over its plan to stage demonstrations across the nation to “fight Fascism” on February 5.
Why It Matters
The protests are against President Donald Trump and his actions during his first two weeks back in the White House. He has issued a flurry of executive orders, fulfilling campaign promises such as clamping down on illegal immigration and pardoning people who took part in the January 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol.
Former Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman General Mark Milley has called Trump a “fascist to the core,” while former Trump Chief of Staff John Kelly said the president “certainly falls into the general definition of fascist.”
Because the disgraced former Joint Chiefs and a fired Chief of Staff are sound authorities, at least to the Left. Wednesday afternoon will either be a bunch of mini-J6 protests or a series of complete duds. The jury is out on which will occur.

Most of the fliers talk about rejecting Project 2025, but some include this laundry list. The same one that, aside from freedom of speech, lost the Democrats and the Left the 2024 election.
Absolutely brilliant.
The 50501 group has a Reddit feed from which they organize and share intel. Their stated demands and why they are protesting:
DEMANDS
Donald Trump and his administration need to address to the American people and own up to his lies and acknowledge the harm caused by his administration. Our coalition calls for immediate actions to rectify the injustices perpetuated by current leadership and to restore integrity and fairness to our political system. We demand transparency, accountability, and the prioritization of human rights and equality. Our requests include the resignation or removal of Donald J. Trump from the presidency, thorough investigations into his appointees, scrutiny of Elon Musk’s governmental role, the repeal of oppressive executive orders, and the enforcement of robust laws against hate speech. We also advocate for the reinstatement of diversity, equity, and inclusion frameworks to ensure that all citizens are treated with dignity and respect.
Requests:
• For Donald J. Trump to step down or be removed from the presidency through impeachment or other means.
• Conduct mass investigations into politicians appointed by Donald J. Trump.
• Investigate Elon Musk’s role within the US government and take appropriate action if any federal or state laws are found to be violated.
• Overturn or rescind executive orders that infringe on citizen and human rights.
• Strengthen laws on hate speech, including banning displays of Nazi propaganda or salutes.
• Reinstate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) frameworks to promote better conditions for all citizens.
Have these people been asleep for the past four years? If these requests are any indication, apparently so. The posts would be hilarious if they weren’t so tragic. One conversation thread recommends bringing more American flags to the protests.
What a concept.
We should be protesting with more American flags.

We’ve all been seeing the protests lately and one thing we hand not been seeing enough of at the protests are the American flag. I think frankly it hurts the message of all you see are flags of other nations at the protests.
Yea we may be jaded and have negative feelings because in recent past we’ve seen a lot of protesters from MAGA and neo-nazi fascists mis using it. But the point is America is the melting pot, of many nations and that’s why we’re protesting. To keep it that way and to stop this bullshit.
So bring the flags of the country you came from sure. But fly a US flag as well. Because we want to bring back the America we all love.
The rest of the thread and sub-threads debated other types of flags they could bring, and one person commented: “Images of police being rowdy with folks carrying the American flag will not bode well for this administration. I think this is a genius idea. Honestly you should make yourself look as patriotic as possible.”
Yeah, that might be a stretch.
The 50501 organizers also have a state-of-the-art website; maybe it was built by Joe Schmo with Wix or GoDaddy, but I highly doubt it. The website has a full-on resource page that lists this particular gem: Ensuring that you know your rights, listed in multiple languages.
That’s some grassroots action right here: insert *eyeroll* emoji.
Even though these yahoos are organizing everywhere but on X (because of that dictator Elon, probably), others are sharing the fliers on their X profiles. One person came across one and tagged @ICEgov: Immigration and Customs Enforcement, pointing out the opportunity for easy pickings.

Despite claiming these protests will be “peaceful,” you know the Left is desperate for unrest and violence in order to resurrect the J6 narrative, as well as to distract from Trump’s winning agenda. The radar will be up, but so will the prayers that these professional protestors will just be spitting in the wind.
