The Women’s March on Washington on Saturday is set to be huge, drawing more charter bus permit applications than the actual Inauguration Day — of President Donald Trump — it’s protesting and more than 220,000 committing to going on Facebook.
In fact, the protests look to be so big that currently airplanes full of women are flying to Washington, DC, to join the demonstrations.
Estimates are that the number of anti-Trump protesters today are going to far outnumber the people who showed up for yesterday's inauguration.
Speaking of yesterday's inauguration, get a load of this:
Trump is so embarrassed by this that he has ordered the Interior Department (Who provided the side by side comparison.) to stop tweeting.#Inauguration crowd size? The difference in pictures. pic.twitter.com/SulfzccOyc— Dan Gross (@DanJGross) January 20, 2017
By the way these "Sister Marches," as they have been named , are already underway here in America and in other places like Europe, Asia, Australia, and New Zealand.
Up here in Alaska we have several of these planned all OVER the state, with the one in Anchorage starting around 10"30 AM our time.Big cheers on 7th street at the enormous crowd gets its first look down the hill at the even bigger crowd in the mall. #WomensMarch pic.twitter.com/aXGZRlOL7s— James West (@jameswest2010) January 21, 2017
In fact I worked all of yesterday to find a way to attend the Anchorage march myself, but work responsibilities are unfortunately going to keep me close to home.
However I will continue to cover today's protests and to spread the word for this and other protests to come.
Remember, they might be able to stifle the Interior Department, but they can't shut us all up.
And they have only just begun to hear our voices raised in protest.
P.S. By the way, men are perfectly welcome to these "Sister Marches" as well, as the great Nick Offerman explains quite eloquently to jerkwad extreme Piers Morgan.
I have not yet seen reliable estimates on the inauguration crowd size but I would not at all be surprised if this march had already exceeded it.Per @womensmarch organizers, they're increasing today's turnout estimates to 500,000 participants. Be patient & kind! #WomensMarch— Deputy Mayor Donahue (@SafeDC) January 21, 2017
And that does not even count the marches happening around the world.
Update 2: Another woman offers her support.
The People's President.Thanks for standing, speaking & marching for our values @womensmarch. Important as ever. I truly believe we're always Stronger Together.— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) January 21, 2017
Update 3: Women's March in Anchorage.
— Julia O'Malley (@julia_omalley) January 21, 2017That is a damn fine turnout considering the weather.
But what can I say? You just can't keep strong women down, now can you?
THIS is the true meaning of "binders full of women!" We will not sit down and take it.
ReplyDeleteTrump and his gang have called for the crowd comparison photos to be removed - which is the 'beginning' of his taking control of the media and various outlets! Trump is a constant liar (proven and factual) and wants nothing more than to control and dictate to all of us!
ReplyDeleteI so agree w/you Gryphen! It's a 'start' to get involved in the Anchorage march as well as those in other parts of our state.
So many of us in Alaska want to counter Trump every step of the way. I thought his speech of yesterday to be horrid and frightening! I view him as being pure evil and think we are going to have to watch everything word and step he takes very, very carefully!
Remember, it was initially announced Trump won Alaska, but further counting of the votes found Hillary Clinton actually did!
Yes, even though we are a majority red state, Alaska turned blue! The next step has to be the Republican led Alaska Legislature that has spent us into an abyss! Alaskans will be paying for their inept actions in the years to come. They are a group not to be trusted! Watch them carefully too!
I have a feeling that Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Florida were also really blue.
DeleteBeaglemom
So. Do. I!
DeleteThe price you pay for being incompetent.
DeleteTrump has had to keep in the neighborhood of 600 Obama staffers because they haven't been able to replace them yet.
I imagine some of his orders won't get done or will be very slow to take effect.
Gonna suck to be him.
Alaska unfortunately did vote overwhelming for Trump not sure where you got your numbers.

The media has dubbed the Trump protests as the "New Tea Party". But this is mainstream America. This is not an extremist faction of the Democratic Party. And therein lies the huge difference between this movement and the Tea Party.
DeleteInstead of ignoring the throngs of people protesting Donald Trump, the media is paying attention. And that’s great. But as seems inevitable, instead of acknowledging that this is a grassroots movement from the core of the Democratic Party, they’ve decided this is the “new Tea Party.”
The Tea Party was instigated and funded by big money.
The people coming together to speak out for civil liberties and equal rights for all are not funded by some corporation, and they are not new. They are the soul of the Democratic Party, of the liberals who are the heart of the Democratic Party.

The media, as is often the case, is dead wrong to call these protests a new "Tea Party." We are smart, educated voters who care about equal rights for all, for voting rights for all citizens. We are not a creation of the Koch brothers; we are "we the people."

Delete2:20 BAHAHAHAHAHA Back at you.
DeleteI was tied up this morning, but I would have gone to our local march and I'm a registered Republican.
So I KNOW as a fact that many Alaska Republicans stand with those marching today.
I think this is a big part of our American problem. Too many people are on the edges and don't believe their can be anyone in the middle.
If a person is a Republican they must be anti-Democratic Party. If they are Democratic Party they must be anti-Republican.
There is a huge middle ground there of people like my self who go with the issues and can swing either way depending on the situation and the issue.
You, 2:20, in my opinion, based on your response to my comment, are part of the problem that makes it hard for this divided nation to meet on middle ground and compromise to get solutions.
And besides that...do you think only Democrats want civil rights or that only Democrats care about women's issues?
DeleteIf so it shows you and all those like you how little you know about Americans. And how closed minded you are.
@2:20 little snowflake trumpy troll, that is why those republicans were going around hanging tea bags from their ears.
Deleteyes, republicans don't need marches because they have the russians do all their work.
@ 2:20 My, my little snowflake, cup cake or whatever, what a short memory you have, republicans don’t protest.
DeleteI guess all those rallies with Obama as Hitler, Michelle as the gorilla, Hillary in the electric chair, were just fun family events.
Give it up, we are far more intelligent than you will ever be and have memories that are far better than you will ever have.
In Manchester, England, there is a women's march. They are chanting "We don't want your tiny hands anywhere near our underpants"!!! What a clown he is, disgusting. Nobody has any respect for him.
ReplyDeleteI can't help but wonder what President Obama and First Lady Michelle are thinking. Can you imagine having to welcome the Trumps to the White House? It must have been pure Hell for them!
DeleteThey are going to be horribly missed and Trump and his porn wife will NEVER be able to walk in their shoes!
I will never refer to Trump w/his ill gotten title nor refer to his wife with hers!
Neither of them has earned the titles and they have zero respect around the world!
I predict we will never see any member of the T---- family walking on the streets of MY city, eating in its restaurants, browsing in its bookstores (oh, stop it, MrsB, a bookstore??!?), or any of the things the Obamas did regularly.
DeleteIf perchance they venture out of their bubble, the T folk will not be welcomed. And that's putting it mildly.
we chanted that in oklahoma city today as well. tickled me pink.
DeleteToday my friends, I wish I was wealthy because I would offer a tax free gift of 1 million dollars to anyone producing confirmable and vetted video evidence of Trump's many rape crimes, sex videos, or any of the other horrifically nasty things he's done.
ReplyDeleteI would rather have someone produce confirmable and vetted evidence of his collusion with Russia to steal the presidency.
Deletelol. You nutjobs crack me up. My guess id he will have an 8 year successful run, regardless of how much liberals hate true progress and freedom.

ReplyDeleteAs tens, even hundreds, of thousands of women pour into Washington, DC, for the Women's March on Washington, thousand of sister marches around the world have already taken place.
From Australia to India, the Czech Republic to the UK, thousands of women have taken to the streets in the name of equality, equal rights, civil rights and economic opportunity.

DeleteYes we are considering the election results, we literally and figuratively WON the popular vote !!! This march is just an example of all those that didn't vote for trump.
From what can be seen on MSNBC's coverage of the Women's March in DC, the crowds are near the numbers who were at the Obama inaugurations.
ReplyDeleteI marched in the '60's and can no longer do so physically. I am 1000% with them in spirit!
Looks too as if ACLU has already filed it's first lawsuit against the new emperor. Defeating him is going to take $$$, real patriotism by those on the inside, and continued marches.
Well, dontake worry. John Lewis is marching for you. His speech gave me goosebumps bumps. He told the crowd that he knows a lille about marching. God damn straight he does.

We marched for so many good causes....public education, climate change, LGBTQ rights, minority rights, immigration, ACA, reproductive choice, etc....Everyone had signs that they carried proudly.

DeleteFriends of ours who marched in Washington for civil rights and for an end to the war in Vietnam in the 1960's remembered those marches all their lives. I think that, to some extent, today's outpouring around the country was a tribute to them. We were following in their footsteps.

We just got home from Traverse City's march in support of women's and everyone's rights. I think there were easily over a thousand people, maybe even two thousand. The march was peaceful, the signs were plentiful and either really to the point or funny but also to the point. It felt so good to walk among people who feel the way we do.
ReplyDeleteWatching Trump sign his first executive order - to eliminate a program that helps lower income house buyers reduce their FHA mortgage rates - surrounded by gleeful millionaires, including his children, members of Congress and others made me so furious that nothing could have kept me from marching in my town today.

PS I hope the news outlets filming these amazing events around the country and the world finally realize that "we" are "the people" for whom the Constitution was written and are angry.

I posted the article about this on another thread today.

ReplyDeleteThey have not shown even a teeny, tiny inkling of investigating him for anything, and I'm pretty sure they're savvy enough to understand that any crap that gets flung on Trump will hurt them, too.
He will not get impeached by a Republican Congress.
I don't understand why people don't understand this.
Of course he won't be. Are there enough internment camps to round up the millions against him? See, they think we'll bow down as do you. It will be a cold day in hell.

My God, our new president is a bloviated imbecile lackey for Vladimir Putin. No wonder the Russians were the only people in the world who cheered his inauguration. They finally won the cold war, with no shots fired. All they needed was the compliance of the richest people in the United States and the GOP.

"5:40 PM: Spicer complaining about MLK bust and giving various excuses why the inaugural crowd was much bigger than anyone said."
"5:46 PM: Verbatim quote: "This was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration. Period. Both in person and around the globe.""
Taking questions from reporters?

Spicer sounds like Baghdad Bob.
DeleteJust got back. Huge crowd in Los Angeles.
ReplyDeleteWe spent about 2 hrs at the L.A. rally. It was massive and calm. Great signs!! Women (and men) of all ages, families with young babies, perfect weather, pussy hats everywhere, very comforting. I'm reading that there were 750,000, so you can imagine. Numbers worldwide have reached about 3 million. Transportation was really strained but it worked if you were patient.
ReplyDeleteAll in all, this is a powerful statement made to YamAss. He wants to be popular!! So you can bet his peeps will lie about the numbers. Ga head, no one will buy them. We've drawn a line in the sand, make no mistake about it.
I have to work, but my niece and her boyfriend and friends are gathered in SF right now. Started at 3 Pacific Time. The SF website said to make sure to bring glowsticks.
ReplyDeleteGood One!

1000 in Fairbanks....
"Charles Brotman, who announced every inaugural parade since President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s in 1957, was replaced by President Trump’s transition team this year.
ReplyDeleteHe found a new gig, though: He’s helping to announce the Women’s March on Washington, one of many worldwide demonstrations following Trump’s inauguration."

I know a few of the good women of Anchorage and they are as fine a group of women as you'd find anywhere.
ReplyDeleteIt has always puzzled me how they stay sane, though....
I marched today in Key West, Fl. with my husband at my side...he knows that he owes his life to a woman and walked to honor his mother, his wife, his daughters.
ReplyDeleteChecking in from Denver-- they expected 30,000 people. They got 100,000-150,009.
ReplyDeleteI was there with my 29-year-old daughter. She was thrilled! She said it was one of the highlights of her life.
She wants to do some volunteering now!!
HA HA HA, the National Park Service no longer provides crowd estimates !!! Since when, today?
ReplyDeleteInteresting because Spicer was telling us that yesterday’s crowd was biglyer than Obama’s inauguration, so where did he get his numbers from, trump little tiny brain?
I wonder how long it is going to take for it to sink in with trump and company, WE ARE NOT STUPID like his supporters?
Reading this article I started having a flashback of the protests while Nixon was in the WH, only difference these protests started during the trump’s inauguration parade.

Over 1 million join anti-Trump women's marches worldwide
By NANCY BENAC and BEN NUCKOLS - The Associated Press
The Washington rally alone attracted over 500,000 people according to city officials apparently more than Trump's inauguration drew on Friday. It was easily one of the biggest demonstrations in the city's history, and as night fell, not a single arrest was reported.
.
White House press secretary Sean Spicer had no comment on the march except to note that there were no firm numbers for turnout because the National Park Service no longer provides crowd estimates.
The Women's March on Washington appeared to accomplish the historic feat of drawing more people to protest the inauguration than the ceremony itself attracted.
Some of the slogans:
"We want a leader, not a creepy tweeter,"
"Welcome to your first day, we will not go away!"
"Repeal and Replace Trump." >>>> My favorite !!!!

I personally think the number was far beyond one million. Small towns like mine would never had made the count and I think there were lots of small towns where people marched. And then think of the people who were there in spirit but whose health made it impossible to join in physically. We are many more than one million. And Trump's handlers know that - if only because he lost the election by at least 2.9 million votes. And that's here in the US.

Where is all the diversity?
ReplyDeleteThat plane looks very white
Where are all the black woman at?
ReplyDeleteThey were everywhere .
Deletewhere I marched, there were black men and women, and immigrants, too.
DeleteJust got back from DC. I am so thrilled to have been part of this historic day. Peaceful, kind, like minded people abound. I'm so proud of everyone who took a stand today.
ReplyDeleteWay to go Portland !!
ReplyDeleteA fellow on Facebook named Rivera Sun is trying to tally up all the different rally figures, so if you have some to report check out his Protest math numbers, and give him your event data in the comments.
ReplyDeleteMadison, WI, had 75,000 to 100,000 people of all ages, ethnicities, and genders. EVERYONE I saw was peaceful, friendly, and having fun. Imagine each one of today's marchers bringing just one more person to the next march! Protest must now become our way of life. Complacency brought us this evil man, and activism will get rid of him. We must be ever vigilant and never let our guard down. I plan to commit to at least one protest per month, and so has my husband. If there is one good thing about this horrid election, it is that we have awakened!
ReplyDeleteTonight, Seattle's Q13 Fox News put their own slant on the protests, framing the purpose of the marches as conciliatory. Typically, there is one male and one female anchor, but tonight there were two women, including one I've never seen before. Maybe this was intended to fortify their viewpoint, but if so, it didn't work. It was almost laughable.
ReplyDeleteYesterday, they gushed, people protested the election results, but the enormous numbers of marchers today, all over the world, just wanted to show their desire to work together with President Trump. One of them summed it up as "a different narrative," not seeing the irony in her own words.
