THREAD: When the #MillionMAGAMarch reached the Supreme Court this afternoon, antifascist activists were already there to confront them with shields and a banner that read "PUNCH MAGA IN THE FACE."

"Fuck antifa!" chanted the Trump supporters.

While no violence had occurred, riot police moved in between the two sides, facing toward the antifa side.

"Back the blue!" chanted the Trump side. "Trump! Trump! Trump!"

"Antifa f****ts! Fucking homos!" yelled one Trump supporter.

I got around to the antifa side of the fence to film there, and some of the left retreated a bit.

Police took advantage of the retreat to push forward and create a wider gap between the two sides.

In one small scuffle I saw, an apparent cameraperson accused an antifascist of breaking his glasses.

He physically pulled her over to the police saying he wanted to file a criminal complaint, but no arrest was made on site.

For a sense of the scale of this thing overall, here's a look at the size of the Trump crowd looking down from Capitol Hill as I left that area.

About to head back out to cover the rest of the night in DC.
