Hundreds of masked men carrying banners, including the Confederate flag, marched through Washington DC on the Fourth of July, the 250th anniversary of the US’s inception.

The group appeared to be led by Thomas Rousseau, founder of the neo-fascist, white supremacist organization Patriot Front. Members of the group wore white masks and gathered in front of DC’s Union Station. They later marched towards Capitol Hill, WTOP reported.

Members chanted “Life, liberty, victory!” and “Reclaim America!” during the Saturday demonstration, according to video posted on social media.

Neonazi buffoons proudly exhibiting pride in their beliefs, concealing their faces & waving loser Confederate flags in Washington DC


I wish the news would carry something about the hundreds of people carrying a giant copy of the declaration of independence constitution down constitution ave.

This article is the epitome of values on which USA was founded and has operated, ever since. Stop worshipping a piece of paper. It is not, never was, and never will be meant for anyone but rich, white, male marauders.



Protected free speech. Unlike Reflecting Pool commenters. Jfc.


Maybe Trump can lead the new Confederacy and ruin their country. We can probably part with the deep south, just leave us New Orleans.


Thats not even the correct “Confederate” flag. I swear if you took the masks off there wouldn’t be three teeth for them to share. BTW… I’m a born and bred southerner and want to put my biggest boot up their ass.

They accuse anyone to the left of Hitler of hating America while flying the flag of an enemy nation defeated 150+ years ago.

To be fair I am to the left of Hitler and hate America.

See, both sides are the same

Not even the flag of an enemy nation. They chose the battle standard of a particular regiment.


That’s what I was thinking. How is this in any way not the opposite of patriotism? On technicality they’re steering torward treason, but neither state they adhere to exists anymore.



The white face mask is the new white pointed hood


buncha cowards scared to show their faces


Brave patriots. Proudly standing up and not being identified.


Oh yeah, I forgot a lot of ICE agents have the holiday weekend off.


Why not start beating their asses or gently running them over when they’re seen? Every time we don’t act the more this cancer takes root.

There’s a reason they wear masks, hide all identifying information, and march only in a large group in sparsely populated areas.


Go ahead.

Get yourself an “assault on a federal agent” charge.

Yeah we’re all cowards. I guess there’s nothing we can do! Oh well!

Im not sure what you think youre getting at here.





Seriously , a giant mob needs to break up the rally and burn those flags


by fuck trump depth: 1

DSA, instead, spends time kicking ass at the polls


Take the masks off traitors. I’m not afraid of some treasonous rats that hide behind a mask like cowards.


The confederacy doing its victory lap.


The strangest gay subculture there is


Dude in lower right has a bump cap in his hat.
