A nothing burger until the siege people start to peacefully protest and things start burning and breaking.

Unless it was funded by Soros it won’t happen.

A bunch of basement dwellers can send posts to each other planning stuff. None of them will DO anything. They actually have to come up with bus fare to make it to DC. Mom probably didn’t up their allowance. So after paying their “War Thunder” fees there’s not enough left.

I’m sure Barr has put a chill in their spine with his current get tough approach. The rioters can no longer rely on the local marxist prosecutors to let them off.

I have mentions on Daily Beast, the UK Daily Mail, and Facebook regarding how the Siege is being “toned down” from its “inflammatory rhetoric” to emphasizing a “peaceful protest”.

Daily Beast states that the proposed epicenter of the siege, Lafayette Park, has been claimed by BLM and they’re not moving.

The freshest of these are at least four says old now. It may not get any traction in the media, at least not yet

Had read several stories that 9/17 was D-Day for these pond scum...

Have to wait & see...

Maybe, the Park Service and National Guard pre-emptively shut down Lafayette Park...?

This from their site:

Hey all you activists, artists, musicians out there,
Picture this: On street corners across America, a few musicians gather here, a few there . . . a brassy riff starts drifting, lilting above city thoroughfares and suburban byways . . . a swell of drums tumbling, trumpets crooning, basses thumping, saxophones wailing. As the thrum reaches a melancholy crescendo, the air itself becomes steeped in a deep blue revolutionary hue.

The sound implores you to give in to its evolving, swirling pull . . . to respond, to step out, trust your instincts — and act.

It’s the sound of jazz:

bold, soulful, joyous, collaborative, improvisational.
And, with a bit of luck, it’s going to swallow up the whole country for 50 days, starting this Thursday, September 17th — and remind it of the revolutionary mettle that it’s made of.

Bring courage and wits — and your musical chops — to a street corner near you . . . and to pop-up sieges in front of federal buildings across the nation . . . and as the election approaches, to the White House in Washington, D.C.

America doesn’t know what it’s about to hear.

See (and hear) you . . . from September 17th through to Election Day.

#RadicalLeft activists plan to gather here at noon today to lay siege to the #WhiteHouse.

If you spot groups arriving by plane, bus, or train, let’s share pics to ID the militant leaders and where they originated from. #WashingtonDC

I guess we won’t hear anything about the White House siege until the afternoon.

The dirtbags all sleep well past noon.

The “big date” escaped me, and when searched found nothing. Perhaps if we were to search the whereabouts of Madonna, it might be a start. She did, after all, want to blow up the White House. Intimidate, threaten and bully; all tried and true methods of d’rats.

The Daily Mail (UK) seems to be the only ones covering it. I’d check their site later today for any updates. This link is from September 3rd, announcing their intentions:

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8693853/Anti-capitalist-organization-plans-lay-siege-White-House.html

An anti-capitalist organization who started the Occupy movement in 2011 have vowed to ‘draw wind’ from BLM protests tearing through the country and ‘lay siege to the White House’ for 50 days.

Adbusters, a non-profit environmentalist organization based in Canada - who are known for spurring the Occupy Wall Street movement in 2011 - have announced plans to ‘lay siege’ to the White House from September 17 until November 3.

The group describe themselves as ‘a global network of artists, activists, writers, pranksters, students, educators and entrepreneurs’ whose goals involve advancing a ‘new social activist movement’.

In a post on their website titled ‘#WhiteHouseSiege – Tactical Briefing #1’, the activists say: ‘It’s time again for dramatic, decisive action.

‘Which is why, on September 17th, in the original and enduring spirit of Occupy, we and tens of thousands of our fellow citizens will stream into Lafayette Square, in Washington. D.C.’

*SNIP*

“According to their website, the group hopes their movement - which they say will be nonviolent - will go global:
‘A siege only works if it is sustained,’ their post reads.”

Diana, here: Adbusters is a CANADIAN group. Excellent comments after the article.
