DC Police Prep for Sept. 18th Rally Supporting Arrested Jan. 6 Capitol Protesters

DC Police Prep for Sept. 18th Rally Supporting Arrested Jan. 6 Capitol Protesters

There were over 600 people arrested on various charges by Washington DC police and federal agents on January 6th.

Now, authorities are bracing for a September 18th rally for those arrested on January 6th for protesting how various aspects of the November election were handled on that day.

The Washington Metropolitan Police Department said it will have an “increased presence” around the city on Sept. 18, when a group organized by a former Trump campaign staffer plans to gather on Capitol grounds.

Capitol Police Chief Tom Manger said the agency is “closely monitoring” plans for Sept. 18. Manger will also brief House and Senate leaders next week on security preparations for the rally, a source familiar with the matter said.

Police agencies declined to share specific details about their preparation plans. But law enforcement experts say the failure to predict and prevent the violence on Jan. 6 means officials should prepare for the worst this time around. The rally also comes a month after the Capitol complex was evacuated because of a bomb threat followed by an hours-long standoff with a suspect.

Police are planning to reinstall the fence around the Capitol ahead of the event.

Though no specific measures have been announced, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi hinted during her weekly press conference Wednesday at extra safety precautions for the Sept. 18 rally by saying: “We intend to have the integrity of the Capitol be intact.” Briefings for lawmakers, including congressional leaders, are expected in coming days.

A security plan that is being finalized calls for a fenced perimeter on the streets immediately surrounding the Capitol building and the Supreme Court, though not around the congressional office buildings nearby, said the person, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity ahead of an official announcement.

The Capitol Police formally requested the fence to the board that oversees it, and it is likely to be approved, according to a House Democratic aide who spoke on condition of anonymity to talk about private discussions.

It will be interesting to see how this event unfolds. Given the Biden administration’s failures in Afghanistan and along the border, now paired with a power-grabbing pandemic policy, ginning up anger at political opponents would be a standard play from their book of power.

Prediction: this protest by those “pesky right wing extremists” who pay their taxes and follow the law will leave the scene cleaner than they found it.

    And still, attendees will be hunted and harassed for months after by the Fascist Bureau of Intimidation.

    If the Jan 6th protestors are your standard that’s demonstrably false. Beating up police officers, racist antics against officers, criminal damage and more can be expected

    Who is supposedly organizing this? This has the stench of FBI setup all over it and FBI informants and agents provocateur will be deeply infiltrated into whatever crowd forms. If Michigan is any indicator, about two thirds of the crowd will be paid informants and BLAMTIFA agents provocateur, all under FBI control and present only to stir up trouble and provide negative optics and sound bites.

    Again, who is supposedly organizing this? Who is funding the buses and hotel rooms for the participants? Are there calls for crisis actors going out in trade publications or web sites? Are BLAMTIFA agents making preparations to travel to DC?

    When news coverage comes out, watch for black police officers being accosted by “white supremacists” yelling racial epithets. That tripped them up last time when they claimed it happened but there was no video of it.

    I can speak only for myself, but I wouldn’t go near this thing. It has dumpster fire written all over it.

I guess Dictator Dementia will get out his f-15 models toys and attack.

How many will be shot by the Capitol Police, with justification under some technicality?

There will be no violence unless Antifa/BLM show up and instigate it. The enemedia will blame any such violence on the January 6 protesters and not Antifa/BLM so there needs to be video recordings from beginning to end and from multiple angles. Preparation is vital because a false flag operation is sadly realistic.

Get ready for a lot of photo-ops like they did during the Tea Party gathering where a smiling, gavel-wielding Pelosi accompanied a herd of smiling, camera-wielding black politicians through the capitol grounds and then reported being assaulted with endless racist chants but couldn’t produce a single example for evidence. Apparently all cameras filter those things out.

By ‘fence’ is Pelosi talking about a regular fence-fence, or the huge monsters they erected in January topped with razor wire and guarded by National Guard troops yanked out of their regular jobs and given unloaded weapons to look fierce?

Because a normal chain-link fence has holes in it *just* the right size to stick Styrofoam cups into and spell out political messages. Not that I would condone such methods, and every protester should be carrying a trash bag and wearing gloves to pick up after the rare mess-makers anyway.

The totalitarians need another distraction to further their agenda. This is an invitation for honest people to get snared (or executed) in another false flag.

So near Vancouver Wa a judge granted an injunction against mask protesters NEAR school grounds after a “scare” prompted a lockdown. The injunction / TRO ruling was on the grounds of safety.

Meanwhile in Seattle, they have an entire homeless encampment actually on school grounds that they won’t remove.

Now that Biden is president, Pelosi et al have no motive to deny crowd control, to force disorder (“riot”) and spin a handmade tale.

I wonder if the liberalized rules of self-defense (“planned protester”) are still a viable (social/political) Choice.

1) First and foremost, it is a trap. Do NOT get involved with this.
2) Most of the people there will be Federal employees trying to provoke something.
3) Expect government agents to kill someone or a bunch of someones after a false-flag threat against our “betters”.
4) Expect that the Republicans will side with the Democrats. They have a history of that. There may be a “Reichstag Fire” scenario planned.
5) Since we are no longer allowed by the electoral system to vote them out, what makes you think that either party gives an obese rodent’s gluts about a demonstration, free speech, etc.?

    Wouldn’t it be hilarious if, after they put up the fence, nobody showed up in DC… but federal buildings in four large blue cities were simultaneously mostly peacefully protested?

Proud Boys says they know nothing about this, and it sounds like bait.

I pray that the protest is peaceful shows some “back the blue”, and wins over some of the DC Police Force.

This is a total false flag operation, and everyone knows it now. The only folks going will be naive patsies and federal agents.

Why would sane, mentally competent person get suckered into the false flag op?

BTW, this is set up within the jurisdiction of the Cap Police – immune from reporting rules or any reasonable oversight. They can do as they want.

They don’t need to protest regarding 1/6 political prisoners. Have the trials and force DOJ to give up the videos and put the informants on the stand. Where is the fake GOP on this. Why aren’t they kneeling for a photo op like Pelosi did for Floyd.

    Because Trump threatened THEIR way of life too. They like the bribe money and every other perk they get from being in Congress. There are only a few there with integrity, and the media and politicians who want the perks call them NUTS.

    The Republican Party stands firmly behind the Democrats in all things. They only kneel to please the Left.

“We intend to have the integrity of the Capitol be intact.”

Unless large numbers of politicians and bureaucrats are resigning, the integrity of the Capitol is a lost cause.
