Please post your updates from D.C. and from news reports here as well as your photos of the day.

Our Walter Reed salute to the troops last night was very well attended. Upwards of 800 people were there over the three-plus hours of the demonstration.

Photos and video taken by This Ain'tHell taken in daylight before the bulk of the crowd showed can be viewed here.

Leftists are not capable of such things. Their hatred burned out their humanity long ago.

They REALLY DROPPED THE BALL on this march!

Fox so screwed this up...CNN did better and CSPAN did the best. Very dissapointing. Fox ought to can the producer who ran this story today!

I don’t pay high cable only to be able to have Fox for this BS!

I will email and write them and we all should!

I could not be sure and I would be pretty bad at guesstimating. To do that I think that you would need to have a baseline of experience. I have been to some Life Marches, but of course those are underestimated, too.

I was in the crowds, but I didn’t it seemed all that thick when we arrived at 11:30.

The photos that I am seeing are pretty amazing and I guess that they are earlier in the day.

The other reason that it would be tough to estimate is because when I got there I noticed a good many leaving. It seemed that people were coming and going all day.

It was an awesome crowd! Lot’s of different kinds of groups represented. Great Americans!

we didn’t see any opposing protesters, but we did see the high-steppers dancing group & many who went over there to carry their signs. it was funny to see tea partiers over running their event lol.

“There are a lot of great stories like that. I met a guy that was at Normandy on D-Day.

The crowds were climbing the monuments at the capital and waving Magsden flags while Mike Pence was speaking.

It was great!

So sorry we could not go to Washington but were there in spirit! Even cried over the size of the crowds. Thanks to all who could attend.

Ditto that for me!!

Temecula Tea Party - September 12

Pitbully and I made the trip from Banning today. It was a great turnout and very rewarding experience.

I missed you today. But you my friend, you were part of history. Fantastic. (see 1742,1832,2017,and 2449 should have pinged ya).

And just for posterity's sake (clearing throught), here is another post of this from earlier:
