A Rally In Support Of Capitol Attackers Is Coming To D.C. Here's What To Expect.

Despite fears of violence on Saturday, it’s unclear which of the major far-right groups, if any, will show up for the event.

Far-right demonstrators are once again planning to rally in Washington, D.C., on Saturday, in support of the insurrectionists who breached the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 and now sit in jail.

The so-called “Justice for J6” rally, organized by former Donald Trump campaign operative Matt Braynard and his group Look Ahead America, is meant to show support for the violent mob that overran the Capitol eight months ago. Five people died in that riot, and hundreds more were injured, many of them police. Since then, hundreds of arrests have been made, and federal officials are still searching for more suspects.

Despite fears of violence on Saturday, it’s unclear which of the major far-right groups, if any, will show up for the rally. Extremist groups like the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers — both of which had members who were at the Jan. 6 insurrection and who have since joined demonstrations in support of the defendants — appear to have backed off publicly from Saturday’s event, fearing further arrests.
