This is fine but we were seeing comparative pictures in real time. It isn’t like everyone waited until after 1:14 to broadcast images.

A Reuters photog—he’s in no way innocent on this.

A few things about the radical left.
They are very predictable.
They are drama queens.
They believe what they are told without checking for facts.
They cannot accept anything what goes against their view.
and the biggest one is that they are the most intolerant, hate filled, people out there.

They were re-running Trumps speech and other inauguration videos AFTER the main event was over and the liars decided to start lying about the crowd size.

The NYTimes was big in pushing this fake comparison. They ought to be made to publish retractions as big and frequent as their original fake news coverage of this.

(E.g., ABC got caught cutting off half of Ari Fleischer’s sentence re: Spicer to make it look negative instead of positive—as it was—and they issued an apology and retraction. But their fake news went out on their big news broadcast and their retraction was a short statement online.)

I would prosecute under federal jurisdiction for inciting the riots. Let him and his defenders contemplate their 1st amendment right to lie to everyone as they spend a few nights in the box.

The CNN gigapixel, which shows Trump speaking, and the crowds all the way to the Washington Monument, has another clock tower. Swipe to the left to keep moving right until you see the guy in the blue hoodie on top of some kind of scaffold or platform. Down the street behind him is the clock. Zoom in. It shows about 12:19.

For me, the final word is CNN’s own gigapixel photo, linked here:

From their own mouths (CNN).

“I have one of those liberal progressive clocks.”

I know those clocks...they are ALWAYS wrong but belittle you when you disagree with them.

Yes, they are spiral-eyed crazy with hate for America, normal Americans and everything we hold dear. Given unchecked power, such are easily led down the path to cheering for slaughter and atrocity. No peace can ever be made with them.

Didn’t lightning strike the clock light tower in 1955? Around November 5th? Dr. Emmit Brown is doing research on the incident.

I can’t see a clock anywhere even with bigger screens and enlarging the photo.

The clock is on a clock tower at the far right of the photo. The hands of the clock are white and the tower is red brick.

Editor’s note: Some commenters have noticed that the clock face visible on the Smithsonian Tower shows a time of approximately 1:15. I spoke with the Smithsonian’s public affairs office, and they confirmed the clock is currently broken. This can be further seen in two photos (photo 1, photo 2) taken by the same photographer, from the same vantage point, during the Women’s March on the day after the inauguration, January 21. Both photos, obviously not taken in the same instant, show the hands on the clock face in the same 1:15 configuration.
