Hundreds of people gathered in front of Baltimore City Hall on Saturday in opposition to the Venezuelan bombing that took place early that morning. And on such short notice, organizers and participants say the protest gave them a sense of hope for the future. "I woke up and looked that we have kidnapped the elected official of Venezuela, and it's just another thing that Trump has done," said Gwen Dubois, one of the attendees.
Main Idea: Hundreds of people protested in Baltimore after President Donald Trump ordered strikes on Venezuela and the removal of Nicolas Maduro.
Key Points:
US strikes on Venezuela could raise oil and gas costs, spark market swings, and add pressure on household budgets and small businesses.
Public protests and criticism from leaders may increase voter attention and push for more debate over war powers and spending.
