A few dozen supporters of Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters gathered outside her office on July 19, and burned an American flag while chanting “Black Power.”

The small group appeared at the scene to counter a planned protest from a right-wing group called the Oath Keepers. In a call to action posted days earlier on July 17, the Keepers group described the congresswoman as a “protest terrorist inciter” on Twitter.
