#WildProtest: the protest that never was.
The day Trump tweeted his call for Jan 6 to "be wild", Ali Alexander registered WildProtest[.]com.
It was to be held on Lot 8 on Capitol grounds.
It never actually happened. Instead, it was used as bait.

To write this piece I looked at website registrations and web archives. Knitted that together with reporting from @propublica, @BuzzFeedNews, @emptywheel, @just_security and @capitolhunters into a single narrative centered on #WildProtest, the protest that never was.
@propublica @BuzzFeedNews @emptywheel @just_security @capitolhunters For weeks before Jan 6, Ali's #StopTheSteal protests outside government bldgs had brought together militants, conspiracy theorists (Alex Jones) & white supremacists. There were stabbings and capitol invasions.
Along the way they lied and lied and lied.

So these assholes who want to overturn the election have a website now, wildprotest.com. And what's this? Booking codes for local hotels? @mhMetroCenter @hicapitoldc @alexandriaholin explain why ur welcoming violent white supremacists who burn #BlackLivesMatter banners.
Let's also ask their corporate parents @marriott @holidayinn why they are doing business with white supremacists #DefendDC
