An overwhelming presence of presence of patriotic American citizens descended on Washington, D.C. Saturday for the Million MAGA March against voter fraud, and as promised antifa black bloc and Black Lives Matter showed up to counter-protest. Curiously, however, while Antifa and BLM are known for their anti-police rhetoric, their members largely opted to hide behind lines of uniformed riot police while waving signs emblazoned with empty, violent threats.
Video footage from the march shows a contingent of black bloc Antifa cowering behind the police while holding up banners with violent calls to “Punch MAGA in the face,” as well as “Biden/Harris 2020” campaign signs.
Trump supporters can be heard repeatedly calling the antifa members “p**sies” in the footage.

National File found another small contingent of Antifa, some wearing cheap tactical vests and gas masks, on the ground at the march. Heavily outnumbered by Trump supporters, the black bloc activists did not seem interested in engaging in their trademark tactics of violence and arson when there was a chance of backlash.

Several hours before the march, members of the Proud Boys chauvinist organization marched through the D.C. streets shouting the phrase, “F**k Antifa!”

Overall, Saturday’s march has been markedly peaceful, as despite their bold aspirations to “punch Nazis” and “punch MAGA in the face,” BLM and Antifa activists seemed mostly content to stand well behind the lines of protective Metro police tasked with preserving their safety.
The numbers of Trump supporters at the million MAGA march appeared to easily dwarf the numbers of violent Black Lives Matter rioters who had assembled in the same city just a few months before.
