(5/6) The Ukranian counter-protest took their position behind the Russian rally and disrupted the live performance with chants and megaphones. Parks police did not like the usage of megaphone sirens to disrupt the Russian live performance.

I do think that the drug war is just one of many battlefields that class warfare is being waged on, as is our current struggle with this administration, but upon reflection, it would have been better to post by itself. Thanks for commenting. I always strive for improvement.

(9/10) Restaurant workers in #DC have been struggling to unionize due to #unionbusting tactics and the neutering of the #NLRB. They held an info picket at the #Occidental Restaurant to inform the public that there is NO #UNION CONTRACT!

(7/10) Later in the day, hundreds of protestors crammed the Freedom Plaza in front of the city council building. By the way, those are real QR codes, and I have verified that they are probably safe.

(5/10) Earlier in the day, I stopped by the @maydaymovementusa.bsky.social 24/7 sit-in at the #NationalMall. Unfortunately, they were hindered by bureaucracy, and the event was delayed by several hours. However, at the time of writing, it should still be ongoing. Stop by if you have a chance!

(3/10) There were many other creative #protestsigns and outfits spotted as the crowd marched towards the White House.

(2/10) The crowd convened at Franklin Park and marched through downtown before going straight down 16th St, directly towards the #WhiteHouse.
Spotted in the crowd was #Pikachu, and assuming there's only one in the area, they were just arrested the prior day at another peaceful protest.

Hey! I attended this event, and was with the group that marched down Constitution Ave, where some brave activists were arrested for their peaceful civil disobedience. I've got a bunch of photos and a brief write-up here: bsky.app/profile/ulzi...

Amazing! I had heard that multiple groups were involved, but had no idea who or where.

(2/3) This protest was organized to protest the first 100 days of this disastrous administration. They marched over a dozen blocks and were part of a larger demonstration that blocked multiple intersections throughout the morning. The group was accompanied by a large police presence as they marched.
