Trump protesters want to "Help Ivanka Move"

Ivanka Trump, future First Daughter, is leaving her birthplace of Manhattan for the swamplands of Washington, D.C. ― the city her father, President-elect Donald Trump, and her husband, soon-to-be Senior White House Advisor Jared Kushner, will also call home.

To mark the occasion, the artists and activists behind the Dear Ivanka Instagram account are planning a demonstration. On Monday, Jan. 16., the Halt Action Group will host a “Help Ivanka Move” protest, hauling boxes to the NYC residence of Ivanka and Jared in an effort to send a not-so-subtle message to the members of the Trump administration.

“Say goodbye to:” a poster for the planned demonstration reads, subsequently listing things like freedom of speech, affordable healthcare, LGBT rights, women’s health, climate change and nuclear regulation, and immigrant rights.

“The boxes represent freedoms that people are fearful of losing,” Halt Action Group wrote in a press release.
