1. Speaking at the USS Intrepid Museum and meeting with the PM of Australia

Is my understanding.

Edit to add:

White House press secretary Sean Spicer announced the meeting, which will come after Trump delivers remarks at the USS Intrepid Museum to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the battle of the Coral Sea in World War II. That battle featured American and Australian forces teaming up to fight the Japanese navy in the Pacific Theater.

[HoneyBadger]

2. anybody planning to picket him?

[BumRushDaShow]

5. Yes

Would have to search the link but they will be there ready to surround the Intrepid event.

14. Thank you!!!

The illegitimate president needs to know we know we don't accept his rule. The more we irk him the more inclined he will be to quit.

[HoneyBadger]

8. That should show whether or not black bloc are still in the game

I believe that the harbor is protected by the military (Coast Guard) AND Homeland. And FDNY/NYPD of course.

3. Photo-op

And protestors will be waiting for him.

6. Anything less than for an arraignment is meaningless.

[panader0]

9. We "apologize for the inconvenience."

He certainly is that.

[HoneyBadger]

11. The ferry started a few days ago

And their customers are already so pissed at their lack of professionalism that the ferry has pretty much ghosted on FB. This will not help.

10. Thousands will be dressed in white and

Will be banging pots and pans.

A "caserolazzo"

12. At least he isn't arriving at rush hour

SARCASM

[elmac]

13. Probably has another golden shower session planned with Comey and Putin nt

[itcfish]

15. This evenings

commute will be a nightmare

[HoneyBadger]

16. This week, the NYC ferry had typically30-40 minute delays and full boats even without Trump closures

Gonna be measured in hours tonite.

17. DC finally deported him back where he came from

and don't come back!

[leftynyc]

18. We don't want him

Never have and never will. He didn't even win the primary in NYC (went to Kasich). All NYers are saying these days is "we tried to warn you".

[IronLionZion]

20. It may be cheaper to build a wall around Trump Tower

and just keep the Trumps inside there for a while.
