[Lincolnparkdc] BOLO - Be On the Look Out Re: DC Security--East of Capitol

[Marche Maine]

Another thing to be aware of are campers and vans with out-of-state plates
in parking garages, such as the Harris Teeters on Pennsylvania Ave (Jenkins
Row), parking lots, or public non zoned or metered parking areas/alleys
which protesters may use to camp out.

If you are asking, 'what is informing the thinking of many of these people'
looking to wreak havoc in the coming days'?; below is an article from
Rachel Bovard, Director of Policy of the Conservative Partnership Institute
<https://www.conservativepartnership.org/> (300 Independence Ave. S.E.,-
German American building).
What I found specifically galling was her failure to appropriately
acknowledge just how Officer Brian Sicknick was murdered by the mob.
