On May 29, Memorial day, a pack of pro-J6 (Capitol insurrection) protesters showed up outside the DC Jail. Opposing them and disrupting their brazen support for Trump's coup attempt was "DC Residents against Terrorism and Sympathizers," or DC RATS for short. One of the pro-J6 protesters got violent, assaulting a DC RATS activist carrying a bullhorn and attempting to destroy the bullhorn. The attacker was not arrested.

DeSantis's "Twitter Fail" Presidential announcement draws protesters to 4 Seasons Miami

Submitted by Luke on Thu, 05/25/2023 - 04:06

On the 24th of May, Florida's fascist and theocratic extremist governor Ron DeSantis formally announced he is running for President in 2024. This announcement was delayed over a half hour by "problems" at Twitter of unknown origin. In Miami, his supporters were beginning a two day retreat at the Four Seasons Miami. This drew a small number of pro-Trump protesters and a large number of anti-GOP/anti-Fascist/anti-theocratic protesters. At least three of the latter got inside the event before being expelled.
