GRIFF JENKINS (CORRESPONDENT): You can see it stretches all the way back up to the Ellipse at 15th and then going all the way up here. We've seen some police activity as well but, obviously, the images you're getting from what we're hearing about the situation up on Capitol Hill getting more intense, heating up some. So we're going to continue to make our way up to Capitol Hill and see what's happening up there. But it has been peaceful, I should point out. Everything we've seen so far has been nothing but peaceful. But they're definitely fired up. The chant, by the way, I heard the most today was "Fight for Trump." And that's clearly what many of them feel they're doing here, protesting, rallying. And we'll see where the day goes.
