Ventanas Rotas Y Enfrentamientos Durante Juramentación De Trump Ventanas rotas y enfrentamientos durante juramentación de Trump Por Jessica Gresko WASHINGTON — La policía dispersó hoy a bloques de manifestantes que se enfrentaron entre sí durante las protestas por la asunción del presidente estadounidense Donald Trump. Las enérgicas manifestaciones se desarrollaban pacíficamente en varios puntos de control de seguridad cerca del Capitolio mientras la policía ayudaba a quienes poseían entradas para acceder a la ceremonia inaugural. Entre varias pancartas podía leerse “Que la libertad sea para todos” y “Liberen a Palestina”. Pero en un momento dado la policía persiguió a un grupo de unos 100 manifestantes que destrozaron las ventanas de empresas del centro de Washington mientras denunciaban al capitalismo y a Trump. El equipo antimotines usó aerosol de pimienta y eventualmente acordonó a los manifestantes que gritaban “Manos arriba, no disparen” al tiempo que un helicóptero sobrevolaba el lugar. Los incidentes se produjeron aproximadamente una hora antes de que jurara Trump en el Capitolio. Cerca del lugar las filas de quienes tenían boletos para entrar a la ceremonia comenzaron a hacerse más largas a medida que los manifestantes obstruían los retenes de acceso. La coalición DisruptJ20, que tomó su nombre de la fecha de la investidura, había prometido que intentaría bloquear las celebraciones arriesgándose al arresto si fuera necesario. La simpatizante de Trump, Brett Ecker, dijo que la acción de los manifestantes no iba a arruinar el día. “Sólo están aquí para causar problemas”, dijo la maestra de escuela pública de 36 años. “Me molesta un poco que la gente elija hacer esto, pero una vez más es una de las cosas que me encanta de este país”. En un puesto de control los manifestantes llevaban monos de color naranja con capuchas negras sobre la cara para representar a los prisioneros de la cárcel estadounidense en la Bahía de Guantánamo. Eleanor Goldfield, que ayudó a organizar la protesta de Disrupt J20, dijo que los manifestantes querían mostrar a Trump y a sus “equivocados, mal informados o simplemente peligrosos” partidarios que no se mantendrán en silencio. Black Lives Matter y grupos feministas también hicieron oír su voz. La mayoría de los partidarios de Trump que caminaban a la inauguración ignoraron a los manifestantes fuera de la estación de tren Union Station, pero no a Doug Rahm, quien mantuvo un acalorado intercambio de insultos con ellos. “Consíganse un trabajo”, dijo Rahm, un miembro de un grupo que simpatiza con Trump de Filadelfia. “Dejen de llorar copos de nieve, Trump ganó”. Fuera del Museo Internacional del Espionaje manifestantes con sombreros rusos ridiculizaron las alabanzas de Trump al presidente Vladimir Putin y marcharon con carteles en los que se leía en inglés “Títere de Putin” y “Empleado del mes del Kremlin”. (Kathy Willens/AP) Más manifestaciones están previstas para lo que resta del día. DisruptJ20 convocó a una marcha desde Columbus Circle, afuera de la Union Station, al mismo tiempo en que Trump jure como presidente. La ruta de la manifestación, que los organizadores llamaron “Festival de la Resistencia”, se extiende por 1.5 milla hasta McPherson Square, un parque a tres cuadras de la Casa Blanca, donde habrá un acto con el cineasta y activista liberal Michael Moore. “Vamos a hacer una fiesta en la calle para nuestro lado”, dijo el organizador David Thurston a los reporteros la semana pasada y anticipó que habría bateristas, músicos y un grupo de bailarines. A lo largo de la ruta del desfile la coalición de grupos antibélicos ANSWER planificó demostraciones en dos lugares. Manifestantes y partidarios de Trump se enfrentaron ayer por la noche fuera de un evento de apoyo al nuevo mandatario en Washington. La policía usó aerosol químico en un esfuerzo por controlar a la multitud rebelde. Cientos de personas se reunieron frente al Club de la Prensa Nacional en el centro de Washington donde se celebraba el “DeploraBall”, un juego basado en un comentario de campaña de Hillary Clinton que una vez se refirió a muchos de los partidarios de Trump como una “canasta de deplorables”. Las demostraciones no terminarán cuando Trump ocupe su lugar en la Casa Blanca. Una masiva marcha de mujeres está prevista para el sábado en Washington. Christopher Geldart, director de Seguridad Nacional del Distrito de Columbia, dijo que 1,800 autobuses se han registrado para estacionar en la ciudad el sábado, lo que podría significar que casi 100,000 personas vendrán a la ciudad por ese medio..

Several documentation projects have emerged in re- sponse to this presidency to track attacks on the press.8 * Executive Director of the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press (RCFP).

  • When Comedian/Actor Aziz Ansari Was Accused of Sexual Harassment On
    ANDREA BOWERS Open Secret June 22 – August 11, 2018 Opening: Friday June 22 6 - 8.30 pm When comedian/actor Aziz Ansari was accused of sexual harassment on January 14, 2018 by an anonymous 23-year-old woman, the story was met with a mixed response from the media and public, some of whom believed the details of the account to be too consensual to be considered misconduct. Feminist writer Jessica Valenti tweeted, "A lot of men will read that post about Aziz Ansari and see an everyday, reasonable sexual interaction. But part of what women are saying right now is that what the culture considers ‘normal’ sexual encounters are not working for us, and oftentimes harmful." In her second solo show at Capitain Petzel titled Open Secret, Andrea Bowers focuses on aspects of the women’s movement over the past year. Bowers participated in the #DisruptJ20 protests and the Women’s March during the presidential inauguration on January 20 and 21, 2017 in Washington D.C. The influence and energy of the Women’s March continues to manifest in many ways, but for this exhibition Bowers focuses on the #MeToo and Times’s Up movements. #MeToo, an international movement against sexual harassment and assault, spread virally in October 2017 following the public revelations of sexual misconduct allegations against Harvey Weinstein. The main work in the show, Open Secrets (Part One), 2018, consists of 100 photographic prints covering both sides of a 19 by 4-meter wall. Each print lists the name and occupation of an accused person in the #MeToo movement, followed by their "apology" and an up-to-date summary including details of the accusations, job status of the accused, legal actions, and other pertinent details.

At the end of the Obama administration, following Russia’s alleged cyberattack campaign and intrusions at two state election offices, DHS designated election systems as "critical infrastructure," on par with hospitals and the power grid. In making its designation, DHS created a new election subsector under the existing government facilities sector, one of the 16 critical infrastructure sectors. Sectors and subsectors are managed through coordinating councils, which include representatives from affected critical infrastructure operators, technical experts and consulting federal agencies. DHS and state officials will meet several times in the next few weeks to begin planning an election security coordinating council, Jenkins said at the NIST meeting. “We’re starting to engage with them more robustly.” The department will spend the next few months showing state election officials how coordinating councils work in the private sector, Jenkins said.

  • The Inauguration of Donald J. Trump the 45Th President of the United States of America
    The Inauguration of Donald J. Trump The 45th President of the United States of America Political Discussion Group Packet February 2017 Fact check: The controversy over Trump's inauguration crowd size Lori Robertson and Robert Farley, FactCheck.orgPublished 9:57 a.m. ET Jan. 24, 2017 | Updated 12:55 p.m. ET Jan. 24, 2017 White House Spokesman Sean Spicer doubled down on his claim that President Trump's inauguration was the most watched in history. He also said his intention is to "always tell the truth," but said there may be disagreement over the facts. (Jan. 23) AP (Photo: Timothy A. Clary, AFP/Getty Images) White House counselor Kellyanne Conway claimed that “alternative facts” were employed by Press Secretary Sean Spicer when he tried to make the case that “this was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration, period, both in person and around the globe.” Actually, Spicer got several facts wrong. He has since admitted that some of the figures he used were incorrect — though he believed them to be accurate at the time. The crowd-size controversy began on Saturday, Jan. 21, a day after the inauguration, when President Trump claimed the media had misrepresented the number of people attending his inauguration. Trump spoke at CIA headquarters and said that “one of the networks” had shown “an empty field,” while he saw a crowd that “looked like a million- and-a-half people” and “went all the way back to the Washington Monument.” Trump claimed that “we caught [the media] in a beauty, and I think they’re going to pay a big price.” Spicer then read a prepared statement later that day, further criticizing the media for “dishonesty.” Spicer, Jan.

In the following historical overview, we trace the roots of anti-fascist organizing in DC through the first two decades of the 21st century. Like our earlier text, “How Anti-Fascists Won the Battles of Berkeley,” this text offers some important background as anti-fascists in Washington, DC prepare to confront the second “Unite the Right” rally this coming August. Fascism is a pressing threat here in the capital of the so-called United States on occupied Pis- cataway land. Days before the first Unite The Right, the deadly white supremacist rally inChar- lottesville in August 2017, Nazis brandishing guns and Confederate flags rode through southeast DC, a historically black neighborhood. Two months later, in October 2017, Richard Collins III, a black University of Maryland student, was murdered by a fascist. Meanwhile, in the suburban communities around DC, police and sheriffs cooperate with ICE through 287(g) to kidnap, im- prison, and deport immigrants. In plainclothes and in uniform, fascism grows when we ignore it.
