Record Number Of Protests Planned Around Trump Inauguration

The National Park Service has credentialed a record 28 groups coming to Washington DC over inauguration weekend, compared to a typical five or six. Primarily representing groups opposed to the presidency of Donald Trump, the protests will be led by The Women's March, an expected protest of 200,000 women and their male allies. 

The Washington Post reported on Friday that the city of DC has received requests for 200 bus parking permits for Inauguration Day. By contrast 1200 bus parking permits have been requested for The Women's March. 

Republicans have struggled to fill their blocks of hotel rooms, writes Politico. The inauguration committee is hosting only three balls, a major departure from the usual eight to 10.
