Our Little Domestic Terrorism Problem, Con't

Meanwhile, in Trump's America, white nationalist groups are freely marching down the streets of Washington DC with police escorts.

A march by the white nationalist group Patriot Front was done near Union Station in Washington around 4 p.m. on Saturday.

The members of Patriot Front that were marching shouted, "Reclaim America" as they moved down the streets of D.C. The group would later end their march at a Walmart in the Union Station area, as some onlookers called them cowards, said WUSA9's Mike Valerio.

Those marching wore similar long-sleeve clothing, wit hats, masks, sunglasses and American flags. They were trailed and surrounded by police officers who were there to de-escalate any issues that arose.

The group, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center, is an image-obsessed organization that rehabilitated the explicitly fascist agenda of Vanguard America with garish patriotism.

The SPLC added that Patriot Front focuses on "theatrical rhetoric and activism that can be easily distributed as propaganda for its chapters across the country."

According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, Patriot Front formed as a white nationalist hate group following the "Unite the Right" in August 2017 that left one woman dead in Charlottesville, Virginia.

This is not the first time the group has protested in Washington. According to the group's website, it was in D.C. June 2019 for remembrance of the USS Liberty on the 52nd anniversary of its attack by the State of Israel.

It's happening in our nation's capital.  Something that would have been worldwide news and universally condemned during the Obama era and unthinkable before that.  It's now a ho-hum occurrence in the Trump regime.

White nationalists, Patriot Front, marched through DC yesterday. Many had their faces covered in white masks while chanting “reclaim America.”

Their parade of racism and extremism cost taxpayers at least 2.6M.

White masks.  Guarded by cops.  The police are used to protect the white nationalists.

This is America.  The quiet white nationalism part of this country is once again being said out loud in marches and rallies, and brown and black bodies always suffer badly in the eras where that happens.

Spoilers: the eras where that happens comprise the vast majority of this country's history.  This isn't new. This is America reverting to the historical mean.
