protesters basically told them to fuck off today at NO KINGS protest today.

Protesters plan demonstration as VP Vance visits Camp Pendleton https://share.google/yfTc9qaUB1NrOnFOa

"Protesters are planning to gather outside Camp Pendleton this weekend as Vice President J.D. Vance and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth visit the Marine Corps base for the service's 250th anniversary celebration.

The entrance to Camp Pendleton, one of the largest Marine Corps bases in the United States, was quiet Friday afternoon. But this weekend, the location is expected to be anything but that as both a celebration of hundreds of years of Marine excellence and a potential protest against two of the attending dignitaries take place."
