What looks like a combination of Park Police and MPD have pushed the the line back past H St. Chemical irritants are everywhere, it is felt strongly in the air. #dcprotest #lafayettepark pic.twitter.com/tskPfpgFse

Far left militants are also in the process of setting up an “autonomous zone” near the White House, after the one in Seattle has been plagued with violence, theft, shootings and murder.
Rioters took over a six square block area of Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood earlier this month and have been refusing to allow police entry. They have been allowed to continue their game with the blessing of Mayor Jenny Durkan. She has compared the chaos to a “block party.” However, the area has been plagued with violence, theft, and murder. There have been multiple shootings since Saturday.
