When the left says they want to silence us, arrest us, re-educate us, and utterly and completely destroy us, they mean it. And as we know all too well, they will use any means necessary.
This is what tyrants do.
And so, as patriots start to converge on Washington DC for Trump’s rally, the left is applying pressure to make it difficult for us to secure accommodations.
First up is the Hotel Harrington which just announced it will be closed on January 4th, 5th and 6th in order to deny access to Trump supporters. They cite concerns about the Proud Boys

Just rent some RVs and park them around the Capitol.

We're driving down from NJ. We have where to park. And we know when to leave.

Attempting to prevent a rally by Trump supporters would just kick off the largest demonstration of civil disobedience this republic has ever seen.

Try the Trump Hotel - very close to the Mall and the Capitol. If you take the Metro subway into/out of DC, you will need a Smartcard so purchase it in advance at one of the Metro stations and don't wait until the morning of January 6. Although Maryland and Virginia are leftwing states, too, like DC, I wouldn't spend a penny in DC - screw Bowser. Check out hotels in MD and VA - and take the Metro subway.

Trump had best be one step ahead of the Mayor! Make it as easy as he possibly can for those planning to attend. Might also be a good idea to have the National Guard on Stand-by as I'm thinking the place will be flooded with BLM and ANTIFA! The Democrats are not going to go down without a fight. If a MIRACLE happens and Trump is named President instead of Biden, all hell is going to break loose! Better to be prepared!! They will do everything in their power to burn down Washington, The White House and everything else in walking distance!

Lot of folks talking REVOLUTION around here to water that tree of liberty with blood and all that. And they're afraid of parking tickets...
What would Progs do? They'd take over the Mall and flood it with ratty tents and shantys, build bonfires. They'd put up signs declaring themselves the Autonomous State of Truth and Honesty amid this District of Perfidy. They'd defy the authorities, not asking for permission or permits. The Capitol and Park Police would stand down, and Metro has no jurisdiction on Fed lands. They'd surround the Capitol and jeer all entering. Run the halls of the office buildings, jam Mitch's office with sitdown demonstrators, toss blood on Kevin McCarty's door. They'd occupy the steps and plaza of the Supreme Court demanding justice, offering "no peace".
Conservatives recommend $200/nt rooms at swank downtown hotels.
Let me know when the muster on the village green...
BTW: For those going, don't depend on the Metro subway or busses to get around. They may not be running...no money is the excuse.

I'm staying walking distance to the Capitol. Don't plan on being out after dark as I am not of the size, heft or gender to be out there fighting in the streets.
The good thing is that DC is somewhat set up to thwart attacks by vehicles that plow through crowds. But I'll be keeping my eyes open.
I've been to a few protests/rallies during this mess (Sacramento twice at the beginning of the lockdown and a Trump Rally in Prescott, AZ), but this one feels different. There is so much riding on Jan. 6 and I am bracing myself for major disappointment. But also, what will happen in that crowd if they steal it? Lots of unknowns and I'm a little apprehensive.

If they try, push on in. In fact don't limit yourselves to the usual venues - if you can, take over capital hill, go wherever the mode takes you. If we have enough people, lay siege to the FBI and CIA. Lay siege to the Pentagon. Fill the halls of Congress and make your voices heard and DO NOT let anyone stop you.
Gently, firmly push aside those who would stop you. If they strike out, merely disarm them, as gently as possible and shunt them aside. Harm none, but let it be know they are on borrowed time, and support for the Dems and their falseness, will be remembered.
Take back our country.

Well, #s 6 & 10, conservatives need to figure out the logistics, as they have no George Soros to provide them food, shelter, and weapons, and to bail them out should they get arrested, or provide medical assistance should they become victims of the left’s violence. It’s easier to throw shade on those figuring out how to most effectively make their voices heard, than to pitch in and help. I do, however, think #6 makes a valid point about thinking like the left, as the time for conservative timidity is now over. But, #10, perhaps YOUR keyboard courage could be used in more effective ways.

Drive down many avenues in DC and you're in Maryland or VA. If DC hotels don't want your money, don't try to force them to let you give it to them. If you're denied, take names, tell everyone you know, and put them out of business.

Obviously this author has never been in DC or the surrounding areas. The hotels welcome visitors, protestors and rioters. Anything for a buck. Just because one damn hotel turned away Trump supporters does not mean all of them will. There are so many that are within walking distance to a metro station.
As for Proud Boys, they are welcome because they will fight off BLM and Antifa. Washington DC, live with it.
