Kathy Griffin Says She Wasn’t Welcome At The Women’s March This Year
Self-appointed mayor of Zero Fucksville, Kathy Griffin, appears to still be in crisis ever since that pic of her holding a bloody Trump mask backfired on her. Kathy has since taken back her apology for the pic, but claims to still be experiencing fallout. Yesterday, Kathy tweeted that she wasn’t welcome to hang with Team Pussy Grabs Back at the Women’s March.
In the tweet, Kathy included part of the infamous pic as well as a shot of TV journalist Soledad O’Brien’s Tweet of Disgust with Kathy’s stunt.
So, yeah, after all these months, I’m still not welcome at #WomensMarch2018 etc. (For now). But I support you!!! pic.twitter.com/IMlRx1PmUV

Kathy didn’t go into any detail as to why her pink pussy hat remains on the coat rack, but she’s still supporting the cause. The ginger provocateur alleges that she was under investigation (and eventually cleared) by the Secret Service for two months after #KathyWantsTrumpsHead. She also claims that she’s still on the no-fly list, and detained at the airport every time she wants to get on a plane.
Kathy’s been very strident about how she’s NOT sorry about the pic since it went down. Being pulled aside at the airport is super-annoying and would inspire me to declare “I’m not sorry. I take the apology back 1,000 percent” as well.
Especially if you’re overly self-conscious. Back in the post 9/11 day, a TSA agent pulled me out of line and made me unbutton my jeans (?) and sort of curl the top down to verify that I wasn’t concealing plastique in my belly button or something. And I felt sort of violated because it was in front of everyone. Because who wants to show off their muffin top for a large crowd of people? WHY WAS I BEING BODY-SHAMED FOR NATIONAL SECURITY? Part of me still thinks it was a gag to remedy a boring day for that particular TSA fascist.
