The 50501’hands off ‘ activists who took to the streets to protest against the Donald Trump administration Saturday reached Vice President JD Vance’s home on the grounds of the United States Naval Observatory in north DC. One banner seen in an image of a protest outside his home mocked Vance’s best-selling text Hillibilly Elegy. “JD’s Nazi Elegy writing a tradition of pity for your kids and History. “

The 50501 Action stands for 50 demonstrations, 50 states and 1 activity. Its first major opposition was on April 5 and now it was scaled up with more than 400 protests taking position across the country.
