As the Robert E Lee statue was removed in Richmond, Virginia on Wednesday, Black Lives Matter 757 activist JaPharii Jones ran through a barricaded area with a flag and was promptly removed by police.
While many in the crowd cheered, a handful of activists confronted Jones, who they accused of being "allies with white supremacists" for forming a coalition with the anti-government "boogaloo boys," and claimed he works with police.

A coalition of progressive groups led by The Palm Collective marched in Washington DC Monday morning to demand President Biden "Get a Backbone" on securing the passage of his signature "Build Back Better" legislation.
The group marched from the White House to the office of "No Labels," a 501(c)(4) that encourages bi-partisan compromise but is seen as encouraging Senators Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema to stand against "Build Back Better."
"No Labels lied!" chanted the activists. "Biden, get a backbone!"

Today AntiFa (“Anti-Fascist”) protesters faced off with Richard Spencer, a white nationalist leader in Washington DC. Spencer was leading dozens in a protest against the war in Syria, which the Antifa say is misguided because of his other views such as restricting immigration and ethnonationalism. “We absolutely oppose this war, as much as we oppose Nazis and fascism,” the protesters said.
The protesters fought using fists, flag polls, and a glitter bomb. Spencer and his group attempted to flee in a taxi and the Antifa forced the cab open, starting a brawl on the street leading to two arrests. Spencer ultimately ran across the national mall with protesters on his tail and managed to hail a cab nearly two miles away.

Adam Kokesh speaks exclusively to News2Share following his release from D.C. Central booking, where he was held from his April 10th arrest to the 15th.
Kokesh was arrested by Secret Service outside the White House on an extraditable warrant out of Maryland stemming from an incident with TSA (Travel Safety Administration) in December 2015. The warrant was for failure to appear.
Kokesh says his government-issued ankle bracelet from a previous gun charge was being additionally screened by TSA, and he remarked, "Don't worry. It's probably not a bomb." This resulted in the ten minute closure of the checkpoint and a criminal citation for disrupting security procedures.
A January 2016 letter from TSA indicated that the agency wished to reduce their case to a warning. Kokesh believed this resolved the matter, while the government says the letter only frees him of civil liability. Maryland, meanwhile, is free to pursue the case criminally.

Mr. Kokesh was ordered released Saturday after Maryland declined to pick him up for extradition within 72 hours of him waiving his right to an extradition hearing.
To his knowledge, there is still a Maryland warrant out for his arrest.

Thousands of students walked out of classes across the United States on Friday to protest for stricter gun control. News2Share's Ford Fischer captured raw footage from the scene in Washington DC, where about 400 students gathered at the White House and marched to the Capitol.
The event was intentionally held on the 19th anniversary of the massacre at Columbine High School and was the second national walkout since the Feb. 14 massacre of 17 people at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida.

Over 300 protesters blocked multiple entrances to AIPAC 2017 conference at the Washington Convention Center on 26 March, cheering on about a dozen risking arrest by sitting-in at the foot of the building's southern entrance. Clashes broke out between pro-Palestine members of the group, and counter-protesters affiliated with the far-right Jewish Defense League which advocates protecting the Jewish community from antisemitism "by whatever means necessary."
