Trump appeared on Jones’ show in 2015, and Jones has sung the president’s praises several times since then. His tune changed a bit during an appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience last year, with Jones saying “I don’t dislike Donald Trump” but that he hates how the president “became my identity.”Thousands turned out for the D.C. march on Saturday, with many women explicitly saying their opposition to President Trump spurred them to join the rally. “No one is less mad now,” one marcher, who also attended the first march in 2017, told The Washington Post. “We might be a bit more tired, but we are certainly no less angry and our opinions haven’t changed.”Read original story Alex Jones Crashes DC Women’s March, Chants ‘Down With Trump!’ With a Bullhorn At TheWrap

U.S. sanctions have crippled its economy as tensions with America have soared. In a rare Friday sermon in Tehran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei stuck to the playbook Iran has relied on since 1979, blaming the country's woes on the U.S. and other Western powers, and proclaiming that Iranians still support the Islamic Revolution.
