VIDEO THREAD: Tonight, fans of Nick Fuentes (who was kicked out of #CPAC for anti-semitism such as praising Hitler and Holocaust denial) gathered at the Residence Inn by Marriott National Harbor to see him speak across from CPAC.

The men yelled "Groyper! Groyper!" inside the… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

@zdroberts

The self-proclaimed security for the "Groypers" confronted photojournalist @zdroberts by approaching him up close and falsely whining "stop assaulting me with your camera!"

The man repeatedly misidentified him as another journalist out-loud, provoking the crowd to chant at him.

@zdroberts

One of the men waiting to get into the "Groyper" rally showed off his suit to photog @zdroberts, noting that he wanted a "beautiful, 1930's style."

"What about the 1930's do you enjoy?" Zach asked him."

"Oh, all of it, especially the part where you all are dead," he replied.

Again, one of the masked "Groyper" security guards came outside and tried to put his hand into my camera while falsely saying "don't hit me with your camera please."

I laughed at him and called him fake news, which he retorted, as he continued this game.

He then tried the same… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

@Marriott

Then, uniformed security and/or police came out of the Residence Inn by Marriott National Harbor as the Groyper rally took place inside and approached journalists.

"No footage!" a uniformed officer said to people standing outside. "The @Marriott doesn't want you taking… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

@Marriott

Filming from outside the @Marriott, media could see masked "Groyper" rally security wearing a "YeIsRight" patch on his plate carrier using a handheld metal detector to search attendees before they could watch Nick Fuentes.

"Ye" refers to the artist formerly known as Kanye West,… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

@Marriott

Back at the hotel entrance, an officer approached again telling press that to photograph, they need to back up to the curb, citing private property.

Asked if that was a @Marriott request, the officer replied "that's for me to know and you to find out."

This is my full video of the exterior of the "Groyper" rally situation at the Marriott hotel across from CPAC, where Nick Fuentes and his supporters had previously been removed over the past two days.

As always, all footage available to license.

Inside the Marriott, absent press, Nick Fuentes streamed his speech.

"You know what else has got to go, in a Christian society?" he asked his audience.

"Democracy?" one in the audience replied.

"Jews?" another guessed.

"Talmudic Judaism" was his answer, to a roar of cheers.

In another clip from his livestreamed Marriott speech, Nick Fuentes says Jewish people are "half, or two thirds, or three quarters" of various institutions.

After meandering about the other portion, he concludes, "That's a long way of saying, I love Hitler!" again to cheers.

As a clarification here: When this happened, and listening back to it, I hear "Oh, all of it, especially the part where you all are dead."

Some are saying he said "aren't there" rather than "are dead" at the end.

Frankly, he slurred a little bit either way, so it's hard to… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Only one year after Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene speaking out alongside him, Nick Fuentes condemned her during his Marriott speech last night.

He defended his original support for her: "You gotta work with who you got," he explained.

"Slim pickins, alright? We said we loved… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

This is my 4K footage of how the violence outside the United States Capitol began today.

You can see the first mace deployed (over the heads of officers, toward the activists) which angers the pro-Palestine crowd, who begins throwing water bottles as officers continue using mace.

A little over a minute into the clip is a flash grenade, one of only a couple I saw used today.

My understanding is this occurred after Netanyahu arrived but before he spoke to Congress.

2) As police engaged the crowd, a man scolded police and was maced as well.

The crowd continued marching, taking a wider route around the Capitol and avoiding most confrontations during the march itself.

3) "Smack Netanyahu in the head with that billy club!"

Activists continued a wide march around the United States Capitol from the West side to the East side clockwise.

Some pro-Israel, anti-Netanyahu activists stood along the path and were mostly ignored. Police blocked off streets heading close to the Capitol complex.

VIDEO THREAD: Protesters gathered Tuesday night in front of the Watergate Hotel (the second night in a row) for a noise demonstration against Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu, who is staying inside.

"From DC to Palestine, Netanyahu's out of time!" chanted protesters using red and green smoke bombs. "Shut, shut, shut it down, no Zionism in this town!"

2) "Allahu Akbar! Hamas!" yelled one man through the fencer outside the Watergate at Israel supporters counter-protesting them from inside.

"Jewish motherf***ers!" he yelled. "We're gonna kill all of you!"

"We're gonna burn you!"

It should be noted that it was one lone individual, not the wider protest, using this specific rhetoric.

3) One man dawning an Israeli flag confronted the pro-Palestine protesters directly outside the Watergate.

"You're a coward, you should join the IDF and kill kids yourself, because you're a p***y," he was told.

The man says he's from Jerusalem, but he donates, rather than being in the IDF.

VIDEO THREAD: Police clashed with pro-Palestine protesters Friday night in New York City as President Biden visited Stonewall for an "LGBTQ+ Gala" and protesters demanded "No war criminals at pride!"

All video in thread by @olgafe_images for @N2Sreports

2) NYPD's Strategic Response Group forcefully pushed back pro-Palestine activists and made several arrests throughout the evening both attempting to keep protesters away from the event featuring President Biden and off of the streets.

3) Pro-Palestine protesters trying to reach the Biden event ran through the James A. Farley Building, but encountered both police and Israel supporters when they exited.

THREAD: The FBI, relying on the work of a paid Confidential Human Source "CHS" who surveilles from his own vendor booth at gun shows, and an additional undercover agent, have arrested Mark Adams Prieto, who they charge with trafficking firearms and say planned a mass shooting.

2) The feds say Prieto came to their attention in October 2023, when a paid CHS who had talked to Prieto 15 times in the past, "began making suspicious and alarming comments, including advocating for a mass shooting, and specifically targeting “blacks, Jews, or Muslims.”

3) At a January 20-21, 2024 gun show, the feds say Prieto was introduced to an undercover agent at the CHS's vendor booth.

By the second day, Prieto was allegedly sharing details about a planned mass shooting attack against a rap concert to kill Black people.

BIG VIDEO THREAD: Former President Trump received mostly boos from the Libertarians (a small VIP section plus 4 front rows) and cheers of support tonight from his supporters (who got most of the other seats) as he spoke in front of the Libertarian National Convention, who on Sunday will be nominating their own candidate for president.

Trump spoke in front of the "Become Ungovernable" logo featuring the anarchist circle-A.

The speech was unprecedented where for a major party candidate speaking at a rival political party's nominating convention.

2) As the Libertarians (closest few rows to the president) largely booed Trump and the MAGA (about 3/4 of the room, closest to the press riser) cheered him, some Libertarians stood with their backs to the former president during the speech.

3) Some context for this event can be found in the thread below.

Trump supporters filled much of the room about an hour and a half before the Libertarian delegates finished their work in another ballroom.

Delegates ultimately got back four front rows.

VIDEO THREAD: Anti-Trump protesters assembled tonight in opposition to former President Trump's rally in the Bronx.

A brief scuffle broke out over Trump supporters' Israeli flag, which led police - some in riot gear - to separate the two sides as some protesters fled.

2) NYPD officers (some marked "Counterterrorism Bureau") faced protesters chanting "Trump supports Diddy!"

"No justice, no peace!"

"Go home! Go home!" Trump supporters chanted from across the police line.

3) "If you don't like him [Trump], go suck a dick!" a Trump supporter told filmmaker @RodWebber, who proceeded to pretend to take him up on the offer literally: "You told me to suck a dick! Let's go!"
