What concerns me most about today is that the plan from #UniteTheRight2 has them marching, all at once in full force onto Lafayette Square at 5pm after counter protesters from #ShutItDownDC #AllOutDC have been building up and assembling there all morning. https://wjla.com/news/local/counter-protesters-gather-ahead-of-unite-the-right-2-dc

hoping the gods and goddesses are looking over the counter-protesters
In a D.C. coffee shop a few hundred yards from where the Unite the Right rally is slated to take place later today, patrons lining up for coffee say they feel uneasy. I hate the whole feeling in the city today, the barista replies. #UniteTheRight2 #ShutItDownDC
