And so it came to be that for the third consecutive weekend, Washington was the scene of large, peaceful protests against Donald Trump’s presidency.  Last weekend saw a spontaneous demonstration arise in the aftermath of his attempted ban on Muslims and refugees.  The weekend before saw The Women’s March, wherein 500,000 people took to DC’s streets.  Today’s rally and march were the result of a Facebook call to assemble at 1:00 outside the White House — and by our count, more than 50,000 people showed.  Families, couples bringing their dogs, a diverse crowd united in opposition to what’s happening. What follows are photos documenting the crowd — angry, peaceful, yet joyful at the fellowship, knowing that thousands are willing to stand up to this guy.  The sign that said, “Same Time Next Week” will likely prove accurate.
