Thousands of people rallied across the United States on Thursday in May Day protests over the agenda of the administration of President Donald Trump.



Demonstrators voiced concerns, claiming that the country's rule of law and democracy are under threat.



A large-scale demonstration was held in New York. Members of labor unions and organizations supporting the rights of immigrants and sexual minorities took to the streets. Participants criticized the political style of Trump, who has signed more than 140 executive orders since taking office.



One protestor said, "My biggest concern is Constitution is not followed, and Trump is ignoring Supreme Court and other courts."



Another said, "China, Russia, North Korea is what we are now. We are on the way there."



Others criticized billionaire Elon Musk, who leads the Department of Government Efficiency, known as DOGE.



A man who was holding a placard protesting the mass cuts to the federal workforce said, "Elon Musk is systematically breaking our system. Each one of them has a family and kids."
