NYT reports 'hundreds' at a crowd and organizers were preparing for an expected crowd of 5,000 on Tuesday and more than 30,000 throughout the week. Not particularly newsworthy for HN.

To add: Even Fox News reports it as hundreds: https://www.foxnews.com/us/dc-protesters-police-clash-on-eve...

and at least 6 have been arrested for weapons possession and assaulting police officers... so not exactly peaceful pro-democracy folks, given that what they are protesting is a (mostly) functional democratic process.

This comment didn't age well.. Actually rather quickly.
