The Photo That Sums Up the 'Far-Right' Rally That Terrified DC and Liberal America

Did anyone really show up for that super scary far-right rally on Saturday? The “Justice for J6” rally was supposed to be ‘insurrection part II: endgame.’ The barricades were set up again around the US Capitol. The police were everywhere; they were decked out in full-blown riot gear. They were prepared this time. They were prepared…for the media? Yeah, typical elite media whiff here. There were more media members than actual protesters. The threat was exaggerated. The liberal media may not know this yet, but even prior to January 6—the far right in America is…not big. There are probably more people watching a WNBA game than there are members of the far-right that the liberal media thinks are on the cusp of taking over everything in America. At any rate, the rally was a dud (via WaPo):

The most anticipated visit by right-wing activists to the nation’s capital since a mob stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 ended with a whimper Saturday, as demonstrators supporting the rioters found themselves far outnumbered by police, journalists and counterprotesters.

...

Police made just four arrests throughout the day, seizing two weapons. The relative peace and quiet was a welcome turn for the U.S. Capitol Police, whose leaders endured blistering criticism in the months after Jan. 6 for inadequate security.

This was known to everyone but the establishment media. We all knew this wasn’t going to be a big deal. The photo of the undercover federal agents at the rally trying to blend into the crowd was the highlight of the event. The picture says it all–and it generated some grade-A memes and commentary.

"Justice for J6" was more of a “FED gala.”

Nothing's too good for the taxpayer.

It looks like an ad for Grindr.

They were probably attending a local mil/fed school at pentagon/dia/quantico etc. and had the saturday off to play around. All of the guys are in great shape. Any real op would have been the opposite of this. Facial hair, comms, spacing. This group of guys didn’t care. Nobody would do this working. My guess navy, except the guy in middle. He’s army as can be.

I’m just baffled at the near-universal negative reaction on this site to a group of normal looking young guys.

[bagster]

they are going to get some razzing and nicknames out of this maybe we can make a few suggestions?

Agent Smith?

[AFreeBird]

Yea, that’s a keeper.

I'll bet when the FIB party train pulls into Lisapage, W.V., (tiny town a couple of hollows west of Mingo) he's always the caboose.

How many men can fit in a caboose?

Easiest CAPTCHA evah!

[AFreeBird]

Hey babies, are those glocks in your pockets or are just glad to see me? 🙄

What tools.

FIBies are aptly named.

We know the answers to those rhetorical questions. Humiliation of the intended targets, intimidation towards anyone associated with Trump, creation of a public narrative that such people really are Public Enemy #1 and deserve whatever happens. A predictable treatment from a two-tiered system of justice. Consider yourself fortunate you're retired and long gone from the business. No telling what sort of political corners you could find yourself boxed into these days.

The comments on these threads have given this old man a lot of enjoyment and laughter.

Freepers at their best!

"I’m just baffled at the near-universal negative reaction on this site to a group of normal looking young guys."

I'm not jumping on the "they must be gay" bandwagon, but they DO look like uncover cops of some sort, probably FBI. But there is in fact a buff, ultra-male version of homosexuality. I had one as a supervisor for a year or two. He was ex-military, wound very tight, and looked much like the men in the photo.

The notion that all gays are limp-wristed pansies and wine sippers is a myth, a myth that was used to sell the gay thing to the public on the pretense that gays are a harmless group of eccentrics who just like eat gourmet food and sip wine.

You mean a GAYGAL

[qaz123]

Everyone of my former co-workers that are still there are bailing out as soon as they can. Some even willing to take a hit on their pensions just to get out.

Possible, but I don't think it is likely. Guys that age on weekend break would likely be at the DC strip bars if they are even open during Covid.

[Grampa Dave]

These guys are either blazing faggots or living really, really sheltered lives.

These ?’s are the FBI’s brightest new stars!

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Wow. I don’t blame them.
