(Reuters) Hundreds of thousands of women flooded the streets as an unparalleled wave of “counter-inauguration” rolled in Washington and several other capitals on Saturday, a day after the inauguration of Donald Trump’s presidency. Organisers said the protests against Trump’s campaign rhetoric and misogynistic behaviour drew nearly 5 million across the world, far surpassing expectations. On Sunday morning, Trump acknowledged the demonstrations on Twitter, first with a swipe and then with a conciliatory statement. His report follows: Washington, Jan. 22: Washington DC experienced on Saturday what Calcutta has witnessed for decades. One can, however, legally gift or carry up to 56 grams of marijuana in DC.
