We’ve spent all that money on these great toys for the cops. Time to use them apparently.

Lots of cops and equipment to enforce the curfew.

I’m anxious to get a picture of the large bridge protest from about an hour ago.

Large group of socially distant peaceful protesters taking a knee- very inspiring but it will not end well

Throwing lots of objects into the building. I don’t know why.

They should go find OAN or Sinclair or Faux!

CNN is HQ there.

Fox is in NYC

Sinclair is located in an unincorporated area in Maryland. It doesn't even have a business sign. They don't have studios. All they do is own stations...They probably share this building with other tenants.

Here is there HQ:

I have no idea if OAN even has a HQ.

Look at the top of the frame. Someone gets shoved backward off of a concrete bench. They stumble backward and fall off into other people standing by a tree

Then the guy gets pepper sprayed!
