Last night we noted that anti-Trump protesters had their first confrontation with police as American's violent, disaffected youth threw eggs at guests and set fires outside of Trump International Hotel as people attempted to make their way to the new administration's "Deploraball." But with the inauguration now over, protesters are showing no signs of slowing down as chaotic scenes of rioters destroying private property are flooding twitter.

Meanwhile, here is video of "DisruptJ20" protesters following through on the exact strategy to "blockade checkpoints" that Project Veritas exposed in a series of undercover videos posted just a couple of days ago.
