Any idea what’s going on at 3rd and H NE? MPD and National Guard have Hopscotch Bridge closed down with flares and say it’s closed for the night.

Just out of the picture is the Giant at H Street and Third Street NE. If I'm not mistaken, IronLionZion has been to the beer and wine store in the picture. I have too, but just to look. I've done some shopping at that Giant on occasion. You have to know where to look, but there's a shortcut from Kaiser Permanente Capitol Hill to the Giant by way of a flight of stairs just to the left (south) of the Hopscotch Bridge.

1. The perimeter has moved pretty far north now

There are guard stationed all over union station and along Mass Ave.

Yes, I've been to that craft beer store. Thankfully I stocked up on groceries a few days ago because I would not want to be driving here now.

The deplorables/Qanon have made credible threats that the Feds are taking very seriously. They must have targeted rail and metro because they closed off so many stations downtown.
