Fears are mounting over the potential for violent clashes in Washington DC this weekend after multiple left-wing groups announced plans to counter-protest a 'Million Maga March' event in support of President Trump.

Several left-wing groups are asking their attendees to wear all black clothing. Others are asking followers to dress as Trump supporters (but with backwards-facing caps) to sow confusion and feed mainstream media outlets with desirable narrative imagery portraying Trump followers as violent.

Tensions are high. Caution is urged. 

Pro-Trump rallies are expected to begin at 12:00 noon at Freedom Plaza, located at the corner of 14th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue NW, adjacent to Pershing Park (see the red dot in the map below).

Local, state and federal law enforcement are anticipating violence. DC Police have announced a large number of street closures within the District.

On Saturday, November 14, 2020, the following streets will be restricted to vehicular traffic from approximately 6:00 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. The decision to restrict vehicles will be based upon public safety and if safe to do so, vehicles will be allowed to enter the restricted area if they are on essential business or traveling to-and-from their residence.
