Right-Wing Operative Ali Alexander Plans D.C. March With Far-Right Friends – By Kristen Doerer (Right Wing Watch) / Nov 10 2020
With his host of far-right friends, right-wing operative Ali Alexander has planned a national march on Washington, D.C., this Saturday as part of his “Stop the Steal” campaign to discredit the results of the 2020 presidential election. He also took a moment to lash out at D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser, calling her a bitch and telling her, “fuck you.”
Claiming that tens of thousands of Trump supporters will converge on the capital, Alexander shared details with those watching his Periscope broadcasts Monday. Among those in tow: far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, Nick Fuentes’ white nationalist “groypers,” Bikers for Trump, followers of the far-right conspiracy QAnon movement, the Proud Boys, and “famous evangelical pastors.” The rally will be held at 12 p.m. at Freedom Plaza, which sits east of the White House. From there, attendees will march to the Supreme Court building. Additional rallies are scheduled at state capitals and cities across the country at 12 p.m. local time.
Plans for a supposedly massive rally do not, however, jive with a recent public health directive from D.C.’s mayor. On Nov. 5, Bowser issued an order that visitors from out of District—save for Maryland and Virginia, the two states that border the District—would have to get tested for COVID-19 72 hours before traveling to the District.
“Apparently the D.C. mayor is watching my Periscope and her staff, so let me be very, very clear. I am a man of God, and fuck you,” Alexander said, flipping the bird with both hands. “We’re marching on D.C. with or without your permission. We don’t give a damn about your new COVID order. We don’t have to be tested, I’m telling all my speakers that they aren’t gonna be—uh, tested. But maybe we’ll bring tents, maybe we’ll bring lamps, maybe we’ll bring firepits, maybe we’ll bring marshmallows and graham crackers and chocolate and whatever else. It’s our streets, not your streets. We’re the taxpayers, we the people are the citizens of the United States, and we don’t answer to you, you stupid bureaucrat.”
