Since the MSM play games with photos, showing pictures of events from before the attendees had fully arrived, I tried DDGing "Christina Rally" hoping to find pictures of the event. The results gave no hint of what event MM was crowing about. Anybody got a full name I could DDG-search?

I think MM is getting his undies in a wad about this, which the AP says thousands attended, and the Fox article includes a tweeted video that looks fairly crowded.

Part of the Freedom 250 stuff, the whole event is here (https://freedom250.org/media-center) a quick scan through the 8 hours looks like it wasn't a packed house but looks fairly well attended.  Not everyone is going to stay in the seat/spot for that whole thing, giving plenty of opportunity for image manipulation.  Not that the DUmp needs any evidence, "words we agree with=reality"

THe media also tried to downplay the size of the recent London protests, by not showing aerial footage.

IOW, MM swapped the "a" and "n", accidentally or imagining himself clever. Well, like I said, the MSM play games when publishing "attendance" pics of events MSM-folk hate. DU-folk have bit on this trick before, and their confirmation bias makes them credulous of the MSM's tricks.

I wonder if he was watching Katy Tur self-beclowning herself on MesS Now:

Katy Tur Seems Deeply Confused

I guess it shouldn't come as a surprise given that this was broadcast on MSNOW, but somehow it still surprises me. Katy Tur was asking her panel of guests about something that Speaker Mike Johnson had said Sunday at the "Rededicate 250" rally on the mall in Washington, DC.
...
Here's Tur's reaction when bringing it up on MSNOW to her panel of guests.

Quote
What about this passage from Mike Johnson declaring that our rights do not derive from government? They come from you, our creator and heavenly father. Is this him putting God over the Declaration of Independence?
...
Coppins didn't want to lose his gig at MSNOW by pointing out how nonsensical and dumb her question was, so he just tries to sidestep it and move on to something else. But I'm not and MSNOW regular so I'm under no such obligation.

What Tur says here is so confused that I'm not sure what her point was. Usually when someone is confused I can kinda sorta see how they got there, but not this time. The suspicious passage she's referring to is just a paraphrase of the Declaration of Independence which reads:

Quote
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed...
