People are already calling this alleged U-Haul attack near the White House a false flag

This is a breaking story, so the 24-hour rule applies: All reports within the first 24 hours are suspect. But we will strive to give you the most accurate information.

Last night, someone rammed a large U-Haul truck into barriers protecting the White House and local news was on the case:

The evacuation of multiple buildings makes sense as a precaution. A similar sized Ryder truck was used in the Oklahoma City bombing.

NEW VIDEO: Chris says he was walking home from his run on the mall when he witnessed uhaul driver ram the barricade at Lafayette Park near White House a second time.
"I decided it was time to get the hell out of there" he says

Took this photo of the White House and immediately heard a crash behind me.

Figured someone may have accidentally crashed until the U-Haul backed up and once again tried to break through the barriers.

And here’s an important detail. According to this producer at WUSA9, law enforcement pulled the flag out of the truck, so it was them who laid it on the ground:

NEW: Investigators pulled what appears to be a Nazi flag out of the U-Haul, but they haven't provided any further details.

However, in terms of reactions, what we think is interesting is how many people were declaring that this is a false flag operation. We are not saying they are right (we need more evidence than this), but the reaction is interesting:

Oh, look. The U-Haul truck that “crashed” outside of the White House tonight was conveniently carrying a “Nazi flag.” The PSYOP is way too obvious these days. 🤡 pic.twitter.com/TmnrkYvQKz

Here's a quick analysis: WHY?

Why crash a U-Haul truck with a "Nazi flag" into White House barriers?

What's the motive? Get arrested? For what?

Or maybe, hear me out, maybe this was staged by people who need "Nazi" bogeymen to distract us from failed policies. Just a thought. https://t.co/Pp2TeFTBFP

Just imagine. Renting a whole entire uhaul truck only to put a single nazi flag in the back before a weak attempt at an "attack" 100% staged.

Seems planted intentionally.
The whole uhaul truck.
Its such lazy writing.
"Oh no we're suddenly having a massive white supremacist attack, just like we have warned everyone about for decades."
"Oh we have to react now." https://t.co/54aRJhHZ0P

While the FBI and DOJ staged a uHaul Nazi flag truck “attack” tonight near the White House grounds for the press…

That poor uhaul van was just out getting a subway sandwich and then it was assaulted and had a nazi flag put in it. It had been temporarily blinded after having bleach poured on its headlights. While fleeing home it accidentally crashed into the gates to the whitehouse.

Okay, that is pretty funny, regardless of whether you agree with the Tweeter’s suspicions. Ditto with this one:

And more than a few people honed in on this perfect image:

You’re telling me someone drove a Uhaul with nothing but a Nazi flag in it, tried to ram it into the White House, got stuck on a curb, then the police spread out the flag on the pavement so the media can get it in the shot…

The Left needed a narrative change. They got it. pic.twitter.com/iWETUky14f

Let me get this straight… so you are telling me a guy with a Nazi flag in an empty Uhaul Truck randomly plowed into a White House barricade at low speeds, then gave up immediately and got arrested, and the FBI laid out the flag in front of the truck for the perfect photo op?

— Blehhhhhhcat (@CinderellaErine) May 23, 2023

While we are nowhere near ready to declare it a false flag (no pun intended), certainly the act of laying the flag on the ground is inexcusable. This is potential evidence. What on earth was it doing unprotected on the ground? And by laying it there, they gave fuel to those who think the entire thing is a false flag operation.

Of course, one Tweeter offered this tongue-in-cheek tip for the next rammer:

if you want to attack the white house in a uhaul van, sucess would require a rainbow flag , they would lower all barriers ,in you go
