“I’m gay and trans. Mike Pence wants to take away my rights.the queer community is being targeted”, said another.

“He also has voiced opposition to the repeal of ‘Don’t Ask Don’t Tell”, tried to ban same-sex marriages in IN and once equated homosexuality with ‘societal collapse”.

The demonstration was organised by Nsr, who funded “Werk for Peace” along with the DisruptJ20 group.

The participants along the streets of suburban Maryland included men, women, those of non-binary gender, LGBTQ and allies, young and old from across the land clad in tutus, sparkly stilettos and spandex, CNN reported.

A spokesperson for Carson confirmed the move, saying the congressman has changed his position from Monday when he told CBS4 he would attend Friday’s inauguration to observe and critique the president-elect.

Vice President Mike Pence’s dancing skills were in the national spotlight Friday night, and he wasn’t about to get fancy.

The protestors were not allowed to boogie directly up to Pence’s rental home, as the street was closed off for several blocks.

Also, the future vice president of the United States now lives in a neighborhood named after Chevy Chase.

Pence expressed his gratefulness for Trump being there.

At least one protester brought his 8-month-old daughter to the colorful protest. A pick-up track was around, blasting music loudly.

Mr Obama and First Lady Michelle greeted Mr Trump and his wife Melania on the steps of the grand North Portico, the column-lined entrance facing Pennsylvania Avenue.

“If memory serves, more often than not, we walked that way because we were being hauled into the speaker’s market, speaker’s office for being admonished for being rebel rousers in the Republican study committee”, House Speaker Paul Ryan said.

Pence, with her Secret Service detail in tow, will work full time at a film production company in Washington D.C. While not taking on any official roles in connection to her dad’s job, she said she’s “here to support my family”.

“To the extent that he is known both in IN and nationwide, he was known as a stalwart, social conservative within the congress, and that’s a group that the president will need”, said Bennion.
