Divergent parties began assembling outside of the federal courthouse in Miami ahead of former President Donald Trump's arraignment on Tuesday, with pro-Trump individuals there to show support for the current frontrunner in the 2024 Republican presidential primary and leftists there to celebrate the indictment.
That mix, as friend of Townhall Marina Medvin pointed out, is a "recipe for tumult, if not worse."

Antifa put out a statement saying they will be in front of the Miami federal courthouse on Tuesday to celebrate Trump’s charges.
MAGA folks said they’re flying in to support Trump on his first court date— also planning to be in front of the Federal courthouse.
Heads up. Recipe…— Marina Medvin 🇺🇸 (@MarinaMedvin) June 12, 2023
The Miami police chief said on Tuesday morning that, despite significant security preparations, there would not be a barrier between opposing sides.
Whatever happens, Townhall's Julio Rosas is in Miami covering anything and everything that goes on as demonstrators show up, Trump arrives, and beyond.
Already, a bomb squad unit was called to a sidewalk near the courthouse but, as Julio had reported earlier, the item of concern was just a flat-screen TV with a profane message on its screen.

Outside the federal courthouse in Miami, this TV with “Fuck the communist controlled news media” is being posted on a pole by the numerous media tents.

By late Tuesday morning, most of those who had gathered at the courthouse were either members of the media or there in support of the former president.

Rosas talked to a few Trump supporters to get their view on the indictment and arraignment of the former president-turned 2024 candidate:
"The truth has been hidden...The mainstream media is corrupt, backed by George Soros..."

Vivek Ramaswamy, another 2024 GOP contender, showed up to hold a hastily thrown-together press conference near the federal courthouse to call on every other presidential candidate — including Democrats — to pledge they'll pardon Trump on their first day in office...but not before he had some trouble with a megaphone:

This is a developing story and may be updated.
I can smell the set up. FBI agents use the same stinking cologne.
As far as “Trump Supporters” go, I imagine that a LOT of them will be undercover feds/provocateurs. They *want* a riot, and will *provoke* a riot, well beyond engaging in riotous acts themselves. They are utterly shameless.
Add to them far left radicals who will *pretend* to be MAGA, including wearing MAGA and Trump accessories. And they will be as destructive as Antifa and BLM put together.
To top it all off, if J6 was the cue, the feds will then arrest conservative Republicans who happened to be in the area, maybe in the same region as Miami, though they have ZERO connection to the event.
And arrestees will quickly be shipped North, to New York or D.C., for kangaroo trial and cruel and unusual internment.

Lots of Trump supporters here, a great crowd! Totally peaceful from all walks.
Not in Miami. Trust me. Let them go ahead and wave a commie flag around some Miami Cubans..See how long they last lol...
Looks like a little street fair with all the vendors.
"Yes, we're fine with Antifa beating up Trump supporters."
Yep. Traditionally, Conservatives care too much about family and kids to resort to juvenile profanity- the left seems incapable of communicating without it. It makes the people who use it look thuggish and poorly educated. Unfortunately the right has become very undisciplined since 2016.
I dont want to see any trouble but huge shout out to those patriots there standing up for the Constitution and Trump...this is a line in the sand moment.
Lots of Cubans in Miami who are not fond of communists...to say the least!
The antifas might be a bit rusty on their techniques of provoking responses out of good people.
I think, though, that with a bit of practice, they’ll pick right up where they left off before the Cadaver was in the White House.
Does the FBI have it’s Geo tracking devices up and running? Trump supporters should leave all their phones at home.
Absolutely! The left/Dems know how to win! The right/ Repubs are losers. Trump will win but the deep state will do the same as ‘20. He will not be seated.
May I suggest a new game for such events?
Call it “Find the Fed”. Engage a suspected Fed in “getting-to-know-ya” casual conversation. Share with same your life’s work, places you’re lived, where you now live, where you worship, where you went to college, what was your major, how did you get hired, what were some of your good/bad bosses like? Lotsa stuff. See if the person is casual and engaging or not. It couldn’t hurt.
Some interesting “tells”, yea or nay, should emerge from the game.
AntiFed!
Ripe for another FBI false flag espionage event.
Trump supporters need to organize in squads. know each other, and point out the false flaggers.
I hear the mayor was supposed to put some security barriers for safety sake but did not. That to me speaks volumes …they are compromised and pressured from the swamp. Don’t expect any different from the judge. I’m just trying to be realistic.
Anyone see Ray Epps?
Back in 2017 I went to a Trump rally here in Phoenix with the family. The Phoenix police did an outstanding job in trying to prevent the two sides clashing. As we went into the convention center, they literally were screaming obscenities across the barriers at us. They were probably an average city street width away from us. I kid you not we literally had three nuns in front of us in line, and an elderly man in a wheelchair. Lots of kids in attendance, including my eleven-year old, my wife, subjected to this. As we exited the building, the cops had formed a cordon. Once past the cordon, the mob was all around us, again with the filthy name-calling. The looks in some of their eyes told me they were deranged and really would have killed us if they thought they could get away with it. There was still a heavy police presence, though.
