Pro Trump Rallies Turn Violent, as Antifa/BLM anarchists join the chaos
Violent clashes in nation’s capital lead to four Trump supporters being stabbed by Antifa/BLM anarchists
Lawenforcement Today A pro-Trump rally during the daytime devolved into chaos under darkness as groups of pro-Trump supporters, including members of the Proud Boys clashed with Antifa and Black Lives Matter anarchists who went to the nation’s capital with the intention of creating chaos.
Breitbart and numerous other outlets reported on the mayhem that ensued after a day of peaceful rallies in support of the president devolved into chaos under the cover of darkness.
Breitbart reported that at least four supporters of the president were stabbed during altercations in Washington, DC.
Numerous tweets showed the violence that took place on Saturday night.
People who had been surrounding that man can be heard yelling out, “Knife, knife, knife!”
WJLA said they were told by first responders they had transported four critical stabbing victims from the area of 11th and F Street NW to DC area hospitals.
NBC News, citing Doug Buchanan, a spokesman for the District of Columbia Fire and Emergency Medical Services Department, seemed to confirm that the four stabbing victims had sustained critical injuries.
Witnesses told WJLA’s reporter that the stabbings occurred during a clash between supporters of President Trump and anarchists, likely affiliated with Antifa. A restaurant in that area, Harry’s had served as a gathering spot of sorts for Trump supporters on Saturday.
DC Metro Police reported at least 23 arrests, including six for assaults on police officers, 10 for simple assaults, and four for “riotous acts,” possession of a Taser and crossing police lines, The Hill reported.

BLM on its Facebook tells a different story, turned the wrath against the Mayor and Police Department and called it racism: “BLM DC hosts a presser on BLM Plaza, denounces the failure of both the mayor and her police department — to stop the racist attacks by the Proud Boys against Black people, Black churches & others who stand against racism.”
