Not much today, so it's all in one lump.

* Trump says US will prioritize Christian refugees (CNN)

* How many could lose coverage in your CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT?

Speaking of marches, see https://www.womensmarch.com/100/Action2

The march organizers have a "10 actions in 100 days campaign" and now are calling for community "huddles" to plan next steps; the link has a map of already-scheduled Huddles and a facility for agreeing to host a Huddle. "You don't need to have ever done something like this before. We have a guide available and lots of resources to help you come up with an action plan."

PS--in the tradition of devising new epithets for You Know Who, I am reminded of BtVS' Fear Demon Gachnar. All was well when Giles determined that he had failed to translate the caption of the woodcut of the fearsome demon: "Actual Size." To paraphrase Cordelia in AtS S1, "Throw in a comb-over and tiny hands and I dated we elected this guy a lot. Or, not a lot actually."
