A group of masked men marched at Union Station and across Capitol Hill on July Fourth, chanting calls to rid the U.S. of immigrants.
The marchers were believed to be linked to a white supremacist group that emerged from the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.

The Aug. 12, 2017, rally grew out of a right-wing protest of Charlottesville’s plan to take down Confederate statues. A woman was killed when a white nationalist plowed his car into a crowd of counterprotesters.
A D.C. police spokesperson told 海角精品黑料 that it was “tracking First Amendment activities that occurred this morning in the Eastern Market neighborhood.”
Some police officers were there and later members of the National Guard walked by.
