2019 DC Women's March

2019 DC Women’s March

It was a pleasure to participate in the 2019 Women’s March in Washington, DC, this past Saturday, January 19th. The spirit was high, and so was the generosity among my fellow marchers at Freedom Plaza.

When a metro train is full of your fellow protesters, you just know the day is going to be great:

But, then there was a surprise visit from…Mike Pence, the most overpaid protester of all. And…like so many of his right-wing brethren, he was pantsless, but this time not behind closed doors with his mistress:

Pantsless Mike Pence

Oh, this poor guy, to go through life looking like that robotic, remote-controlled nutjob. But, he is doing good things with his god-given lot, such as collecting money for worthwhile organizations such as VoteRunLead.org…love on ya, man, for doing so much for the good of all of us.

As always, there were plenty of great signs with fantastic messages…and great girls and ladies holding them:

Vulva-la-Resistance

There’s nothing like taking out the trash, is there? It reduces the stink…

Taking Out the TR45H

Good news, if you run like a girl…

Run Like a Girl

…and do you see that “Free Food” sign to the left in the above photo? It was true…there was a stand that had hot drinks, water, homemade baked goodies and even burritos, free for protesters.

Okay, enough about the food…now, it’s on to the hair styling. Prepare yourself, this is one looooooooooooooooooooong-ass combover:

Looooong Combover

…but no worries, We Shall OverCOMB!

We Shall OverCOMB

And, of course, some men of quality showed up:

I Was Born with Rights

Love on ya, guys…

Men of Quality Do Not Fear Equality

No, those who are secure in themselves do not fear equality, they welcome it. Equality lifts all into positions where they can make all things possible. We need it, bad, and for sure, we don’t need any more hearts of ice:

Heart of I.C.E.

One of the most to-the-point signs I saw came as we rounded the corner during the March on the way back to the rally point:

Ban Viagra Impotence is God's Will

’nuff said, and perfectly at that.

There’s been a lot of talk about draining the swamp, so this last image says it all:

Down the drain with that swamp-thang…and those who enable them. The nation is paying too big a price for coddling a block of the most ignorant voters.

Resist on and be well,

Alison
