For lack of a better story, I guess it's starting with the orange clown again:  Donald Trump and his White House team are still angry over the irrefutable evidence that the 45th president's inauguration was dwarfed by Obama's two previous inaugurals and the Women's March on Saturday.  "Watched protests yesterday but was under the impression that we just had an election! Why didn't these people vote?" Trump tweeted at 7:47 AM, local time.  Of course, most of those people likely DID vote, as Trump lost the popular vote by 2.8 million ballots.  Later in the morning, a second more conciliatory tweet came out:  "Peaceful protests are a hallmark of our democracy.  Even if I don't always agree, I recognize the rights of people to express their views," it read.  One could almost picture the White House staffer running down the halls while typing that second tweet as Trump followed and yelled, "Give me back my Android!"

The ridiculousness stems from the first White House briefing of the new administration held on Saturday night, during which spokesman Sean Spicer angrily lambasted the media for reporting the size of the crowds.  Spicer lied several times during his tantrum:  He claimed Trump drew the largest crowd, although that was wrong.  He claimed that the Secret Service delayed crowds by using Magnetometer metal detectors - the Secret Service instantly denied it and said the weapon detecting devices were not used at all.  Spicer also said that the US Parks Service used white ground coverings to protect the lawn for the first time, and the contrast made it appear as though the crowd was smaller - in fact, ground coverings were used in 2013.

No more whinging, no more excuses:  Trump did not draw the biggest crowd ever, far from it.  So where does this new sociopathy in the White House come from?  White House counselor Kellyanne Conway appeared on NBC's Meet The Press on Sunday morning to defend Sean Spicer's glaring factual errors:  "Sean Spicer gave alternative facts to that," Conway said, regarding crowd size.  "Alternative facts are not facts, they're falsehoods," replied host Chuck Todd.  Similar exchanges occurred on ABC and Fox.  She quickly changed the subject, giving up on trying to defend her administration from lying about things that are easily verifiable.

Now that Barack Obama is out of the White House, Israel approved hundreds of new settlement homes in occupied East Jerusalem.  This comes after a phone call between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Trump, apparently coordinating policy.  Approval had been delayed because of Mr. Obama's opposition, and Obama allowing a UN resolution against settlements to pass.  Israel settlements in Palestinian lands are considered illegal under international law.

The Trump administration is threatening the historic peace pact signed by the Colombian government and the Marxist FARC former rebel group, ending five decades of civil war.  Secretary of State nominee and former Exxon Oil chair Rex Tillerson wrote his doubts about the deal in response to questions from US Senators in his confirmation process.  These doubts were reportedly seeded in the US Republican Party by Colombia's former president and RWNJ Alvaro Uribe, according to Chris Sabatini, editor of Latin America Goes Global which broke the story.  Until now, Democrats and Republicans had been able to get together to back the peace process.  But Sabatini says it's fracturing "just as the country is at the cusp of what everyone wanted for originally: peace".

Former Gambian dictator Yahya Jammeh may have gone into exile, but his pockets weren't empty.  Jameh allegedly looted state coffers of US$11.4 Million and sent a fleet of luxury cars and other high-end goods ahead on a private cargo plane.  "The Gambia is in financial distress.  The coffers are virtually empty.  That is a state of fact," said Mai Ahmad Fatty, special advisor to President Adama Barrow, "It has been confirmed by technicians in the ministry of finance and the Central Bank of the Gambia."  President Barrow is reportedly still in neighboring Senegal until a multinational military force creates a safe atmosphere in The Gambia for his return. 

Tens of thousands of protesters marched in Bucharest, Romania against the Social Democratic government's plans to pardon thousands of prisoners convicted of corruption, supposedly to ease prison overcrowding.  "A gang of politicians who have problems with the law want to change the legislation and weaken the state of law," said President Klaus Iohannis, a government critic who supports anti-corruption efforts, "Romanians are rightly indignant."  A ruling party official accused Mr. Iohannis of fomenting a "coup".

At least 39 people are dead and dozens are hurt after a train derailed in Andhra Pradesh, India.  Nine coaches and the engine left the tracks near Kuneru station in Vizianagaram district.

The Indian government caved to protesters and temporarily lifted a Supreme Court decision banning Jallikattu bullfighting in Tamil Nadu state; two men were almost instantly killed in the first such event.  Jallikattu was banned because of the public danger of men trying wrestle bucking bulls to the ground in the streets - people get trampled and gored pretty regularly.  Animal Rights groups say the bulls are put under ridiculous stress, and they will appeal the government's decision.
