White House Garden Tours Delayed Amid Protests
Spring garden tours at the White House were postponed by a day due to nearby protests. The decision came from Melania Trump’s office, citing safety concerns. The former First Lady later attended an event at the State Department.
Nationwide protests under the banner “Hands Off!” were held in opposition to former President Donald Trump and DOGE Director Elon Musk. The largest demonstration took place in Washington, D.C., drawing thousands of participants.
The protests have stirred political tension, especially around remarks made by several Democratic lawmakers. Some have faced criticism for comments seen as harsh or xenophobic, particularly targeting the personal backgrounds of Melania Trump and Elon Musk.
