A demonstration was held at Polhill Park today at noon. An organization called Indivisible Beacon appeared to have been the organizer, which drew about 30 people to the event. The temperature was below freezing. The event was part of a nationwide call for protests to be held at noon local time against the Trump agenda.

Read about the nationwide protests at NPR and Democracy Now. NPR states: “The protests follow a series of executive orders signed by President Trump, including actions led by billionaire Elon Musk, which have been criticized for their aims to diminish the role of the federal government.”
