The once-hotly anticipated American clustertruck meant to fuck up the nation’s capital during President Biden’s first State of the Union address appears to have flamed out, as the permit for the National Mall protest of basically every and any grievance held by MAGAmerica on Tuesday has been revised down from 3,000 angry right wingers to a paltry 500, the Daily Beast reports.
“Permittee has amended his application to reduce the expected maximum crowd size to less than 500 attendees,” says a Monday night edit to the permit from organizer Kyle Sefcik. “Brother, all I can say is that we both know that it was seen by a lot of people in the United States, and I’m not talking numbers, but let’s just say I know that people will be there. Let’s just say, I know there will be people there,” Sefcik told the Beast, seeing the once high hopes for the chaos that once reigned in Canada’s capital city emulated in its southern neighbor likely crumbling to dust.
