Protesters made themselves heard in the nation’s capital Friday, leaving shattered property along some city blocks and disrupting security checkpoints to President Donald Trump’s inauguration, where they slowed crowds from entering onto the Mall and, in at least one spot, stopped them completely.

Dozens of anti-Trump protesters marched in downtown Washington along K and 13th streets ahead of the inauguration ceremony. (The Washington Post)
