More than 20 places around DC are opening up their doors to people attending the Women’s March on Saturday. Some restaurants will have complimentary food and drink for marchers: From 8 to 11 a.m., Del Campo in Chinatown will offer marchers a free care package including a hot beverage (hot chocolate, cider, or coffee), dulce de leche caramel corn with sliced almonds, and hand-warmers. Centrolina in CityCenter will have free hot chocolate in its market area. Neither of these restaurants, however, want people using their bathrooms and outlets without purchasing anything.

From 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., the Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company—a 15-minute walk from the March’s starting point on Third Street and Independence Avenue SW—will serve as a meeting place and bathroom stop with hot drinks and snacks. Near the White House, DC Councilmember Mary Che‘s office will be open as a place to warm up, use the bathrooms, and rehydrate. A photo ID is required for entry into the building.

For all other rest stop stations during the March, refer to this interactive map, created by Lori Boerner and Kay Sera. Click here for a printable list of all the locations, which might come in handy if cell service is spotty. Each location offers different services.

President-elect Donald Trump isn’t just appointing incompetent buffoons to his Cabinet, but deeply immoral individuals who are completely lacking in family values.

Biden cared more about the appearance of having an independent DOJ untainted by politics than he did about holding an unrepentant criminal ex-president accountable.

The American people clearly spoke, and the drubbing Democrats received requires looking beyond just issue polls, voting patterns, campaign strategy, or get-out-the-vote tactics.

The recent decisions by two of the most influential national newspapers of record to not publish their endorsements of Vice President Kamala Harris says a lot about how seriously they take Trump’s threats to democracy and his promises of vengeance against his enemies.

On the eve of the historic November vote, it seems important to ask: What's wrong with men, how did we get here, and can we change this?

If the Democrats’ theme of 2017 was Resistance, the theme for Democrats in 2025 needs to instead be Opposition — and these two GOP senators may be the models to emulate.

The country has never moved as close to the course it took under Benito Mussolini as it is doing now — and even if Meloni is not a neo-fascist politician, she has put herself in a position to appeal to and broaden fascism's political base.
