For several days, as I'm sure you heard, the media had been, had been hyping up this white

0:04.8

supremacist neo-Nazi KKK rally that was supposed to happen in DC yesterday, Sunday. And then Sunday

0:11.8

rolls around and a couple dozen white supremacists show up along with throngs of news cameras and

0:18.2

hundreds of counter protesters. And the, the alt-right folks just, they were there for less than two

0:23.8

hours, I believe. They just kind of walked down the street. Then they stood around in a field for

0:28.0

a little bit and, and then they left. And that was it. There was no violence on that part.

0:33.6

1:24.8

You got to feel kind of bad for Antifa, especially at any Antifa folks who came a little bit late.

And then they got there and they're like, oh, everyone, all the white supremacists, well,

1:33.1

I guess we'll just have to shout at the police then. I mean, I came here to shout at somebody.
