You did good BestemorIshere. I found the article here:
https://www.oann.com/commentary/anti-trump-protests-are-being-readied-in-the-nations-capital/
However, I found some grossly inept editing of the article. Someone just flat blew it. For instance:
The article states:
“The NPS documents suggest the city will be flooded with more than 200,000 anti-Trump protesters leading up to and including Inauguration Day, set for January 20.”
Then the next 3 paragraphs give October dates:
“On October 16, four days before the Inauguration”
“On October 18, another 50,000 are planning to attend a protest”
“On October 19, the leftwing, anti-American group called the ANSWER Coalition”
Anyway, I get the point. Here’s a short synopsis of the protests scheduled:
Rev. Mark Thompson has a permit for an estimated 100,000 where the theme of the protest is “Shadow Inaugural of Donald Trump.” Mark Thompson seems to be part of an organization called Common Cause, but he has mysteriously been scrubbed from their site:

On [January] 18, another 50,000 are planning to attend a protest titled, ”Mobilization to protect the Climate and Our Democracy,” according to NPS documents. That same day, another 10,000 people are expected to attend a demonstration “in support of Progressive Issues.”
On [January] 19, the leftwing, anti-American group called the ANSWER Coalition, which has sponsored numerous pro-Palestinian rallies, is planning their rally.
On Inauguration Day itself a group called the “January 20 Coalition” plans to send 5,000 protesters to the Inaugural. According to their own filing with the NPS, the coalition states it was the group behind a violent pro-Palestinian demonstration at Democratic National Committee headquarters in November 2023.
Welcome to the Q thread. If you have questions please reach out. That’s why we’re here. We dig. We meme. We pray.
Thank you, #1.
Thank you. I had noticed the problems with editing. What really got me was there were no pro-trump permits listed at the time the article was printed. So I gathered that the fencing, etc would be for leftist protests.
As someone else has posted, is this a setup to make Trump look like a dictator supporting their campaign claims?
