With President Trump’s inauguration just over a week away, several organizations sympathetic to terrorism are organizing protests.
From Capital Research Center. Two overlapping coalitions of pro-terrorism groups are planning protests in Washington, DC, on January 20 when President Donald Trump is inaugurated for his second term. The groups involved include endorsers of Hamas and the October 7 atrocities, supporters of the Iranian and North Korean governments, entities that favor Russia over Ukraine, and organizations with ties to the Chinese Communist Party.

We Fight Back Coalition
The first coalition has announced We Fight Back protests on January 20. The People’s Forum, a pro-Hamas group closely linked to the Chinese Communist Party, is hosting the official webpage and is fundraising for the event.
According to National Park Service documents provided to Capital Research Center by Richard Pollock, the group that applied for the permit is another China-linked, pro-Hamas group, ANSWER (Act Now to Stop War and End Racism) Coalition. ANSWER states in its application that it expects 15,000 attendees and requests a permit covering January 19–21, not just Inauguration Day. …
The Forum directly instigated destructive rioting in April when it hosted over 100 anti-Israel protestors in its New York office and urged them to copy “the summer of 2020.” They began destroying property at Columbia University merely hours later. …
ANSWER signed a statement declaring its endorsement of the Iran-led “Axis of Resistance” coalition of terrorist groups like Hamas and siding with Russia over Ukraine. It also has links to the Chinese Communist Party, such as being fiscally sponsored by the China-tied Progress Unity Fund.
The initial convenors who can be confidently described as pro-terrorism include People’s Forum, ANSWER, US Palestinian Community Network (USPCN), Palestinian Youth Movement, the Chinese Communist Party-linked CODEPINK, Palestinian Feminist Collective, Party for Socialism and Liberation presidential nominee Claudia De La Cruz, Artists Against Apartheid, Diaspora Pa’lante Collective and the pro-North Korea Nodutdol. …
January 20 Coalition
Michael Kelly of the January 20 Coalition applied for a permit on January 20 and estimated its expected attendance as 5,000. The application says “The January 20 coalition is made up of organizers which demonstrated at the 2024 RNC and the 2024 DNC.”
It is referring to the Coalitions to March on the DNC and RNC that was exposed as a pro-terrorism network by Capital Research Center, whose investigation of the nearly 300 groups determined that at least 162 qualified as extremist groups and supported terrorism or identified as Marxist, communist or anarchist.
Those coalitions appeared to be spearheaded by the pro-Hamas USPCN and the National Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression (NAARPR), which identifies USCPN as an “affiliate organization.” Both are pro-Hamas.
USPCN was the subject of a FBI counter-terrorism investigation in 2011, reportedly due to evidence linking it to the Iran-backed, Marxist-Leninist terrorist group Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. …
NAARPR endorsed the Hamas-led October 7 attacks as “a morally and legally justified self-defense campaign.” …
