And I seriously don't think those guys could "march" 2 blocks, even if it saves money on Gas.
They were whining the other day that the closest portable potties were a couple blocks away.

They'll have people needing ventilators by the end. I promise you someone is gonna need some Socialist healthcare, which means they'll have to abandon medical freedom and if they're not vaccinated and are admitted, they'll be quarantined.

They may be able to request a certain room and it could be the Rm 1776 RM !

Looks like that red truck was flying a black flag. My understanding is that this signifies no quarter given, don’t capture your enemies, execute them. And their enemies are…

I'm surprised that they haven't been removed. Police are keeping a close eye on the group and I assume have decided to pick their battles.

It's a clusterfuck.

The walk is 5203 feet from the National Gallery to the WH.

Most of these folks can't make it 1 mile.

Sun afternoon, a farmer near the 1776 base camp offered to loan the group his RV. This would give 1776 a place to shower and use a real toilet.

They asked the guy to prove he really had an RV to loan. 'Cause trolls.

Farmer was very offended. I think the 1776 will have to continue using the poo bucket.

Amateur. ;)

I, who uses Twitter very lightly, managed to get blocked by a user after only one reply. All I did was point out that it was odd that he would take to the time to respond to "nobodies" to tell them they were "nobodies" before blocking them. He blocked me. Granted, getting blocked by him was like shooting fish in a barrel. It was Avenatti.

I had no idea that "You're unable to view" meant you were blocked-I took the second part literally. Now I wish I could go back and see who's blocked me.

They just walked past a young man on a bench reading who didn't bother to look up at them. So much winning!

I wonder how many will make to the WH, only to be unable to walk back to the starting point. Did someone stay behind to guard the encampment or are they carrying their poop bucket with them?

Good question. I think that at least 1/2 stayed back at The Mall encampment. Also note they didn't bring any of the children on the morning stroll. I guess they can get Uber/Lyft to scurry back to their poop buckets. Do I really give a damn?

Well I'll be. They made it. The group looks bigger because other groups/people were already there doing their own thing. So now what?

Someone said something like "we can go in there once they open it." Do they think they'll be allowed on the WH grounds?

They just muted their own stream. Guess things aren't going to plan. The camera is live on one of their signs so I don't know what's going on. Anybody?

The camera is now on what I suspect are 3 security people across the street, who are watching them.

Mute is off. Let's see what they have to say.

I'm going to bail. I hate giving them the views.

I did hear them call over to the guards, asking them if they could take a copy of the constitution to Biden so he could read it. They laughed and the group thought they were laughing with them, instead of at them. Big victory for them. They think the guards are on their side.

Well, that was rather anti-climatic. :?

Oreo's baby momma's car is finally ready. He's going to pick it up later. Probably expecting him to bail on the convoy grift in the next few days.

Not always. Sometimes it means the person has set their account to 'private- either that or people I've never interacted with before blocked me preemptively.

A bunch. I don't have an exact number.

I give Mama (Sarah), who is in her 80's, a pass if she didn't make it all the was too the WH or back to the park.

That woman is hardcore. And in her 80's.

I mean, they seem to have long since completely abandoned the idea of converting people to their cause, and instead are just trying to out-asshole each other to anyone that has the misfortune of running across them. X-Ray is in the lead, I think.
