He decided to document their activities.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Howard has covered extremist groups in the past and knew \u2060the group&#8217;s method \u2060was to stage short marches and then scatter.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>&#8220;Knowing time was working against us, \u200bI immediately began gathering information about the march and talking with sources who track extremist groups,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I found a livestream following the group, social media posts from people who had encountered them, and Reddit posts that helped identify landmarks and street signs, allowing me to narrow \u200bdown their approximate location.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Howard set out with freelance colleague Cheney Orr. They saw an opening when the two \u2060found members \u2060of the group \u2014 wearing matching \u2060navy tops, khaki pants \u200band white face coverings \u2014 as they were dispersing and making their way to the Eastern Market Metro station.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>The Patriot \u200bFront did not respond to queries \u2060from Reuters about why they were marching or the identities of the masked members whose images the news agency captured.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>The group on Saturday posted that about 400 members had arrived in Washington. A manifesto on Patriot Front&#8217;s website says, &#8220;Democracy has failed this once great nation,&#8221; and a &#8220;hard reset&#8221; is needed to &#8220;return to the traditions and virtues of our forefathers,&#8221; who they say were European \u2060settlers.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/officemovingamerica.com\/?p=454\">Judge in Charlie Kirk Case Blocks Parts of Roommate Video<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Howard and Orr photographed hundreds of group members heading into the Metro station, waiting on a \u2060platform and boarding a train, the sea of masked faces incongruous with the everyday scenes of public transit and commuters. The photographers split up and took up positions at two ends of a passenger car, packed with members.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>One photo in particular, taken by Orr, has attracted global attention. It shows a woman in a green T-shirt sitting alone on the train, her face impassive. Members of the Patriot Front are sitting and standing in front of her, behind her and next to her.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>&#8220;As I photographed members of the group, I noticed the woman you see in this image sitting alone among them,&#8221; said Orr. &#8220;I leaned over seated members of Patriot Front, \u2060extended my arm, and composed the frame using my camera&#8217;s screen,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>At the train&#8217;s final stop in New Carrollton, the group disembarked and the photographers continued taking pictures as members dispersed and made their way to individual vehicles. Orr said he did not see where the woman in the photo went.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Reuters spoke to \u200bone of the woman&#8217;s family members, but was unable to reach the woman for an interview.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/officemovingamerica.com\/?p=452\">Mexico Arrests Man in Theft of Leonora Carrington Bronzework From Church Patio<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<p>(Reporting \u200bby Reuters, Writing by Rosalba O&#8217;Brien, Editing by Howard Goller)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><b>Copyright 2026 Thomson Reuters<\/b>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>US News is a recognized leader in college, grad school, hospital, mutual fund, and car rankings.
