The Womens March Never Ended. These Stats Prove It. She persisted.
3.3 Million to 5.2 Million
The resistance gets larger.
Midterms In 289 Days.
A year ago, on the day after President Donald Trumps inauguration, millions of people flooded the streets in protest. The Womens March, which took place in dozens of cities and towns across the country, is believed to have been the largest single-day demonstration in US history. Many of those who carried signs and wore iconic (and controversial) pussy hats that day pledged to spend the next four years fighting against Trump and getting more involved in politics. And to a remarkable degree, the momentum that was so visible in the marches hasnt disappeared, as massive numbers of women lobby Congress, donate to candidates, and run for office. Here are some of the eye-popping numbers:

"The Art Of The Deal"
There's a storm brewing and it's not named Daniels. Neither is it related to matters of the president's waistline so much as his inability to get his arms around more than a bumper-sticker conception of policy.
The government teeters on the brink of shutting down, and doing so under one-party rule for the first time since it became a weaponized practice during the Clinton years. Why? In no small part because the self-proclaimed master of the "Art of the Deal" has proven incapable of actually closing one.

Secret Memo Was Actually Written by GOP Staffers
Secret Memo Was Actually Written by GOP Staffers
January 19, 2018 at 9:35 pm
House Republicans spent the end of the workweek telling everyone who would listen that the American people must be allowed to see a top-secret four-page document that could bring an end to special counsel Robert Muellers investigation into Russian interference with the 2016 elections, the HuffPost reports.
One thing about that document: Republican staffers wrote it.
The document, which alleges abuses of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act during the FBIs quiet counterintelligence investigation into the Trump campaign in the final months of the 2016 election, was actually compiled by Republican staffers on the House Intelligence Committee. That committee voted along partisan lines this week to allow any member of Congress to take a peek at the document themselves. Republican members soon flocked to a secure room to read the memo written by their allies and then ran to tell the press about it.

The Simple Truth About The Shutdown:
The reason the government shutdown is that Trump and his team have an ideological commitment to allowing fewer black and brown people into the country.https://twitter.com/johnlegend/status/954591526331363328
Happy First Anniversary Trump!
Trump just made history, many ways. First president to preside over a govt shutdown while his party controls the House, Senate and White House AND first president to preside over a shutdown on the first anniversary of his inauguration AND earliest shutdown ever in a presidency.

Let he who is without a fetish for being spanked by a porn star with a magazine featuring you on the cover & then ask a lawyer set up a shell corp in Delaware to secretly pay hush money to hide your infidelity & the news leaks as you speak at a Pro-Life march cast the first stone
