It's crazy what The Washington Post's video guy manages to capture on camera just walking around Washington, D.C. For example, WaPo's videographer just happened to be walking past the Trump-Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in time to catch a bunch of out-of-work dancers re-create the killings of Rene Good and Alex Pretti in a dance recital. I'm not sure if it was the same videographer, but he happened by the Trump-Kennedy Center on President's Day just in time to catch more dancers. These dancers were blindfolded and wore leotards with different passages from the Epstein files printed on them. Nobody would have seen either of these events if WaPo hadn't happened by with a video camera.
On Monday, The Post's videographer was out and about and happened to catch a man in his fourth day on top of the Frederick Douglass Bridge to protest, we're told, the war in Iran and also artificial intelligence. Sounds like a nutcase … let's put together a video feature on him and post it online.
The Post informs us in its video that this isn't the first time new leftist hero Guido Reichstadter has climbed the bridge. He scaled it in 2022 to protest the overturning of Roe v. Wade.
Monday, May 4, marks day four of a protest by an activist who climbed to the top of the 168‑foot Frederick Douglass Bridge to oppose the war in Iran and the use of artificial intelligence.

Note the flags flying in front of Virginia resident Afefeh, who, like all progressives, has a bullhorn.
We've already had one insane person light himself on fire and burn to death to protest the war against Hamas in Gaza … you have to do better than climb a bridge.
Literally nobody cares

As if anyone cares about some idiot on a bridge

We're actually kind of interested in why he's protesting AI. The Post decided not to pursue that angle.
Remarkable how The Washington Post's camera crew is always there to catch these protests and publicize them. Otherwise, this idiot would go unnoticed.
