CNN had a "reporter" marching with the rioters along some street in D.C. and he somehow knew they were marching to the White House. How did he know that? CNN didn't even know there were rioters outside their front doors for two hours.

Curiouser and curiouser.

There were Tweets galore last nuight to “Burn down the WH”. Many of them were from newbies who deleted their accounts or made them private but Mark Dice was reporting them and screenshotting them.

D.C. is laid out with streets in a grid pattern overlaid with diagonal avenues leading to squares and circles. If the reporter knew which street or Avenue he was on, and what direction he was headed, it would be obvious where the crowd was going.

It’s interesting that D.C. was designed with the lesson of what happened in the French Revolution fresh in mind. The squares and circles connected by the diagonal avenues were spaced apart to be within the effective range of 18th Century grape shot. The intent was that by placing canons in them during an emergency, the army could cut off rioters moving down the grid patterned streets.
