Here's a comparison of the crowds in DC at the inauguration and at the women's march. (Spoiler: There is no comparison. Today was better!)
So what did our executive branch get up to today? (Overview article)
- Trump met with the CIA. Gave them a pretty speech, and didn't talk about the fact that he's been talking crap about them for weeks.
- Trump's spokesman came out and berated the media for "underreporting numbers at the inauguration". The whole press conference was an amazing bunch of lies. "Unmitigated propaganda" was one journalist's take on it. Wow. It seems like the woman's march really got to the administration! Another quote: "This was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration, period … These attempts to lessen the enthusiasm for the inauguration are shameful and wrong." Uh... Obama's inauguration beat yours by about tenfold. Lies are also shameful and wrong.
There are so many good photos and videos of marches today! It's inspiring! Keep it up, folks!
In other news, I've decided I need to knit some hats.
