That pic shows only part of the crowd. The streets are packed with people; they had to cancel the march itself.

Around the world? MILLIONS. I'm seeing posts from cities and small towns all over the world on FB, and I'm telling you, it's in the millions total.

I'm so proud.

We REALLY need some female emojis around here.

It is so great to see that women (and men) all over the world are united against hate! This is so uplifting!

because that is his name. Using the name alterations reminds me of 3rd grade or Free Republic (i.e., Hitlery Klintoon).

Sorry, just a pet peeve of mine.

This goes back decades. Would you want to be called a "the" as in "the" TV, "the" sofa? That is my take on his adjective. It has never been MR. Trump.

Stealth trashing of him.

The rally and march here in Austin is also fantastic! Thousands of people and many of them young. Great handmade signs too! My favorite:

If my uterus fired bullets, the GOP would fund it!

I switched over earlier wondering if they were even covering it and they gave it a mention and said a 'few thousand' were protesting. Then they started talking about General Mattis and the Pentagon. Last time I turned it on they were 'pondering' if Obama and Clinton had a responsibility to ease the transition and 'diffuse' the protesters feelings that Trump was an illegitimate President--completely ignoring that regardless of that more than 2-3 times the inauguration crowd is present and they are talking about others things like reproductive rights, human rights, equality, etc.

And half of the crowd that did show up are probably being paid to be there.
