Cable news had to keep cutting away from legendary icon Madonna when she addressed the Washington D.C. women’s march, as the Material Girl sprinkled her speech on love and solidarity and performance of some of her past hits with cuss works.
“To our detractors that insist that this march will never add up to anything: F*** You,” she said to loud cheers.
Cable news outlet MSNBC had to cut away, but then returned to show the singer performing a slightly off-key version of her “Express Yourself.”
The next song, Madonna said, was dedicated to the “DT in the White House.”
After she posited that the first initial could stand for “Dick,” MSNBC broke away, this time to interviews on the street – leaving only the people on the fog-covered mall to know what would come out her mouth next.

Ashley Judd’s feminist riff on being a nasty woman was one of the most memorable addresses of the women’s march. Sounding like a preacher, songwriter and 1990s poetry slam contestant, she touched on a wide range of progressive issues while also blasting President Donald Trump.
“I’m not as nasty as racism, fraud, conflict of interest, homophobia, sexual assault, transphobia, white supremacy, misogyny, ignorance, white privilege,” she said. “I’m not as nasty as your own daughter being your favorite sex symbol…. But yeah, I’m a naaaaaaaaaaasty woman.”

We cannot and must not stop now. Use this energy to organize. Get people to register and vote. The next election we must get out and vote like we have never, ever voted before. The vote is precious, it is almost sacred. It is the most powerful non violent tool we have in a Democratic society.
Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.) in Atlanta

U.S. decision to withdraw troops dismays some Somalis
ADDIS ABABA President Donald Trump's decision to pull U.S. troops out of Somalia in the waning days of his presidency triggered dismay on Saturday from some Somalis, who appealed to the incoming U.S. president to reverse the decision.
