PROTESTS in DC...

tRump Baby Balloon:
The liberal activist organization Code Pink is planning to fly a “Baby Trump blimp," referencing the 20-foot blimp that flew in London during Trump’s visits there in 2018 and 2019. According to the event description, it is still fundraising to “make sure Trump gets a great view.”

Flag Burning:
The man at the center of the 1984 U.S. Supreme Court case that protected the burning of the U.S. flag as constitutionally protected free speech is planning to protest the president as well. “I am going to D.C. on the Fourth of July and I’m going to burn the flag in protest (of his) whole fascist agenda," Johnson told USA TODAY.

John McCain Supporters:
Two military veterans groups are planning to hand out T-shirts on the mall "to honor the military service and sacrifice" of the family of John McCain, the late senator with whom Trump has feuded. VoteVets – a liberal political action committee that almost exclusively backs Democratic candidates, according to OpenSecrets – is teaming up with Rags of Honor – a screen printing shop that employs homeless veterans – to give out the "Big Bad John" shirts depicting the USS John S. McCain.
