Activists from Shut Down DC gathered to protest against Trump, calling for his impeachment and expulsion from the White House and presidency. They were trailed by more police than there were protesters, while only carrying 2 banners and seemingly presenting no threat of violence.
Hundreds of protesters in Bangkok returned to the streets and clashed with police in opposition to the monarchy of Thailand, also demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Prayut, a general who took power in the 2014 military coup and is widely held responsible for the mismanagement of COVID & lack of access to vaccines.
