The Department. This property could be trespassing in violation of Federal District of Columbia It may be arrested federally prosecute S That's, the one that S S So the police have just said that they officially recognize wido rather than Maduro and his stock, rather than Maduro staff and that the people inside are officially considered to be trespassers who are there and sort of subject to be prosecuted It's. Not there to be a they're actually going to make a physical breach of the embassy But they've essentially declared that they have the right to and the places for me with friends S S S S S S S S Two percent Wanted S S S S No N From the cross S S S S S S S S Police have issued two commands They haven't framed it as a three warning situation, but under the law situations where someone basically is in somewhere where they are illegally are supposed to be given three opportunities to leave they've been giving two warnings over a gigantic loud Speaker The police set up which means that at some point soon basically a raid will be probably imminent as soon as you hear That's. Third siren go off I'm only one person. So at this point I can Really only see one side of the Street but the people on this side of the Street. Here are on the program side. They're happy to see it be random And as you can see her chanting, we won loser and they're, pointing at the idea when they say S S S S S S You can film, I thought Washington fee two zero along the public, the foreign additionally a portion of property utilized by whatever Permanent Commission Organization of State International This property is for official business and diplomatic the United States of America recognizes As a defendant with local control over the property before early United States recognize the ambassadors foreign officials or authorized Property in the United States not recognize the authority of performer or any of total representative to allow individuals who enter the man's property or take any action with respect to this And directly to anyone who was present on the property Referred out Express authorization Property immediately President on the front and person who refused to comply In order to the property will be in violation of federal and District of Columbia law Any arrested permanently from S Signature without any Really loves it That's Not something we say it looks like there's, no field or so status I don't have the paper with no ceiling combined I'm Single S S Muscle painful, those nowhere do you feel like trying to circle around so sign that side? You take mine okay S Sorry Eventually it makes it seem S Really 55 Hour Never S D S S Cuz there's there's Next answer coalition says california's safety I don't know that S S Other side could not be happier or more relieved Very S This United States who The United States Were all priced individual departments of the United Regime Any individuals to enter rebate on this property we'll take any other action we're back to this problem Touring a blessed infection anyone present of this property to Department immediately and to God return expressed motivation Initially in the for the deliver, this bring notice request while President on this property any person refuses to comply with his request in borders to depart from his company will be trespassing in violation of better of District of Columbia law and maybe the President and probably prosecuted S I think में S S S S No Write some contests he's activists inside Several They're inside This left through traffic on that side of the Street. I still think. It's cooking So this is the North side of the embassy. This was actually an area that all of this tape was put up earlier today ostensibly because they were trying to keep food resources from getting out I'm sorry from getting into the embassy if You're watching my live stream earlier the new song that Is there anything going on over here Just a lot of police officers we're not we're trying to figure out which side they're reaching out So we just went by as somebody was on the quote quite outside that, I've interviewed before I just wanted to see the other side of this What's going on alright S Are they both their parking Looks like Alex Rubenstein was inside has left Good to see you in the flesh streaming Yes so what the hell is happening so we just got a notice posted on the front on the front door I believe was Metropolitan Police Department that posted it and basically the order said that we were trespassing and that we needed to leave if we Didn't want to be arrested what this what this memo also said was that this was done on the orders of Carlos Vecchio who is long. Why does fake ambassador to the United States Obviously, the Embassy Protection Collective does not recognize his authority Neither does he have any Already in Venezuela he doesn't control the airports he he's. Never want wide, though his President so to speak has never won an election and It's It's totally I'm runs counter to more people stay inside There are people inside still who are who are risking arrest right now Obviously this is totally against international law their The US recognizes the government of Nicholas Maduro It's, the only government with power and Venezuela and States government in an attempt to further its Coo to bolster its Cuba has decided to seize this embassy and reclaim it as a cool plotting Center It's going to be used by the Cdc by other agencies to continue to subvert democracy in Venezuela So That's what the Embassy Protection Collective was taking a stand against again. I'm a reporter who is embedded inside I've been here since two Wednesday, the 20 fourth of April so over a few weeks now and I've been I've been staying there since we fell under siege and before that okay Ground on what let's do today happening, I know the power's been cut for a couple of days. Now. It's been like well. It's special It's I mean It's been pretty pretty creepy. Actually I mean people have been sleeping in the garage because there's been constant breaking attempts people are calling my name personally at night trying to intimidate us. We've overheard them saying you know that they want to inflict as much fear to us as possible so It's and then again there's the food shortages in the water shortages so everything's been rush in it's been Extremely uncomfortable situation and the United States Government has watched on as a violent mob has laid siege to an embassy in this country clearly That's some violation of the US Criminal Code I Can't tell you which I'm not a lawyer but It's a clear violation of some law and It's happened at the with You know Secret Service and then they were recently swapped out by Metropolitan Police Department It's happened under their wash Thanks so much I assume You're coming to S Alright so we're gonna. Double back. The I still wanna see these time yeah there's against the people who are watching that was Alex Rubenstein. He was actually one of the people who was barricaded inside and he was in a car with approximately four people that appears to have left So this is the garage that they exit through presumably I count Three visible engines there covering that exit You can see there's a bit of excited excitement from that side Sheriff's Corner The the police officers they will be watching See why. There's Harry Potter like sticking the It would be Romance Oh में S I gave him my number and he has my nose. So I think We'll stay live Twitter afterwards my camera Super awesome day I think we I feel like We'll, hear them cheering if there's a rescue S S Live Stream we're so people saw To be clear, these are quedo supporters. These are people who are celebrating the apparent upcoming brain is happening again three people have already sort of left It's unclear exactly how many people are left inside Down S S Oh S S S S So again, a lot of alright, so again, you can see that the the East side is being covered by this But It's not clear that they're actually gonna attempt to breach the building away Alright So federally, they have the authority to go in seems the police are kind of done everything that they need to legally speaking in order to make the bridge. So the question is just at this point one S S Sees this These people don't care Not like you know 6060 countries support widow and was like Lauren The other 100 6000 there's Morocco is the only country in Africa Australia is a country you know australasia, which includes agent to support White out Not support more than half the countries of the world do not recognize wide up That's Funny S S S S S S According to the United States Authorized United States or to allow individuals to Wall the cancer we made on this property or take action with respect to the problem S Motivation Anyone S Sweater Hats Off Dude S S S Down S S Do anymore No more Come on Andy S S S S Please S Come on S S justicia así poco a poco no más se va a volver en un festival de la cumbia S S C S They did not get up in my studio S S Hello Thank you appreciate it Seven days Okay S Yeah S S S S S S S Rifles very lost people Miami S S S S S Right S S S I know it sounds ridiculous Embassy is under attack What do we do Ever S S S S Stop it S S Up S S S S No S S S Oh Oh S S S S S S S No S S C Police sourcing the order again the cry issued almost 10 times. Now It's, the same repeating decorate the inside. There are now these are gonna be arrested because the United States recognize what they call the raji Of course, what you hear is all the celebration of the people and for them. This is an enormous victory for the United States, officially taking their side and threatening imminent arrest of the people who S S S S S First S S S S S Cheese This S S S S S Eventually S S S S S S S S S S S S S S S S They're going S S S S S Thank you S The board I think so S While we only inside my friends S Washington Post S Make S No y a veces cuando estamos en estas condiciones como estamos todos no nos controlamos verdad celebre disfrutemos pero por favor se los ruego nadie puede entrar a la caja les voy a explicar porque aunque todos queremos explicar aunque todos queremos entrar y tenemos derecho a entrar tenemos que esperar una invitación ahorita las autoridades van a entrar tienen que evaluar los daños que estos criminales terroristas invasor hicieron en nuestras manos todos It Middle de los usurpadores de los que defienden la tiranía fracasaron y seguirán fracasando porque el triunfo de la libertad es más grande que el terror de la tiranía disfruten celebren que esto usted se lo ganaron a pulsos S S S S S S S S Baby S S S S Down S S S S S Hey S Come on That's What I goes S S We gotta get out S S S S It seems it's about to happen and they got power tools and they're getting ready to use It's going to my friends they are celebrating the tour It was 34 long stand off is about to close S Behind andaba terminaba la puerta que esta gente ya S S S S S S S S So I'm going to get it क्योंकि अभी बैठो S S S S S S S Nothing S S Oh S S Turn it up I S S S S S S S S S S S S S Employees S Move S S S S S S S S We suspended in the air S S S S S S S S S She's Dead Took me 45 minutes to get her on by Invite yeah literally just You've been here for about an hour right Did you hear police inside They haven't made a freedom See that So the folks who are watching basically both sides are here sort of excited or frustrated, depending on what side they're on that the police officially cut the lock on the front of the door and it looks like we're basically just waiting for them to make a breach some some people left upon their order to leave. Some of the individuals left willingly But basically once the police go in they're gonna arrest, however, is still there S S M चलिए Second S S S S The first way, of course S Not extreme backup all the way back behind the car behind the car A hundred car back up you're. Not it stays light. It's gonna. Stay back four Many of Wow we made on this S President on this Enrollment in the intern Extras in relation Trusting The Couldn't do That's all their request Any person For Christ and Order federal and District, the ball may be arrested and probably S Us covering it covered US governments governments S S Government S S S His pockets S S Get a picture With the glasses is a good thing The people watching the women with curly hair and the glasses, right next to the flag. There is the attorney for good things, so she's, standing by presumably to begin immediately attempting to sort of defend her advise her clients will be presumably dried out front door S S S Careful S S Dang S S S S Eleanor Goldfield fans compensated judgmental information that the woman is, there is a legal Council to the Embassy Protection Collective not a lawyer Kind of specific but correct the record for the artist to my voice right now S Say legal counsel S Take care S S Time S Hey It's a drum drop your habit Yummy S Behind The S S S M S S S S S Yeah Okay Look what I S All right Lawyer I see It's, the woman who has an antique sweatshirt I don't have a clear line of sight anymore, but she was right there so at least Who you used on Cbs this morning Just like like general just whatever S S Yeah S S S S S Miami S S S S Revolution As well S As well S S S S S S S S Santa 10 Venezuela Venezuela Well then as well That is love that as well then S You can see Then S Hello Second anymore No not anymore No Cheers Understood sign S S Somebody inside S S Anymore No Hell No No Hell, no hell No S No Hell, no hell, no hello we say hello We say hell No S No No S I don't know no Newest husband us puffy S S S No, no No I don't know You ask us puppet Portrait sitting there S I think It's the I think It's The cops is holding flexing You go around the back No no there's More War anymore No Thank you daddy Awesome Close They put a cop on the door The police put their own lock on the door I Didn't make any arrests now Thank you On the door had so they've, actually relock, the door of the police officers locked the door themselves Activists refused to come out Thank you Let's go Sure some of these Hits the S So Setting up this I don't know District S S S It seems like at the front door negotiations broke down somehow because we saw at least one of the activists there at the front door put. The police ended up closing it and those people unhand not handcuffed we entered the building, went right back inside and now they're for some reason they're opening up the barricades around the building But you got a kiss. My first kiss my feet S For the sweetest thing but obviously S This is all for the banks and the old puppies all for the banks Carlos go to the other side You have to one S S Nervous S S Up What time you got time to? I am yeah S S Okay, the people who are watching some things seem pretty still right now I'm going to just try to explain Basically, there are a number of people who are still inside the embassy These are people who are trying to prevent the takeover by program that why those supporters and you know hit and his embassy staff that the Trump administration recognizes so there was a handful approximately three people who left earlier upon giving notice that they would be immediately arrested and Yesterday six people left when they lost water in the building so at this point, It's unclear exactly how many people are in there. It's between about seven and 12. Maybe police seem to have a they. They breached the door. They use our tools to basically open a lot with the actress and put on they breached the door and then they were speaking to activists visibly with their lawyer present and It seems like communications broke down because they actually ended up closing and relocating that same front door where they were having a conversation, my impression I could be wrong. My impression of what happened is that police were trying to negotiate with them to get them to leave on their own for the police, it seems like it would be disadvantageous to enter the embassy and make the arrest and subject themselves to any kind of lawsuits that could follow So they are So the field behind me, our greatest supporters who want the people who are inside to leave in any event So it seems like communications broke down that recalls the door and it's not clear to me. Whether the police are gonna attempt to breach the building on the eastern side. Instead or whether this is gonna continue to be a waiting game for sometime we're gonna, find out cut the water and the full more than a week about a week ago This thing just happened trying to starve people up and make them I don't know drink what is in there So it's a technique of intimidation and bullying It happen yesterday like you telling you people At least four of them are visible right now in Mariani just commented that the camera is shaky when It's not planned That's because the cameras zoom dental lot when It's pointed over someone You tell people that the cups allowed the right wingers to attack people as they were inside and outside Are you going to tell them different? Cops feel away That's the truth That's the truth media doesn't want to admit it They say at least four visible people inside and refusing to get themselves out of heart Invited by the government yeah Over here the government Everybody in the gym running baby really the important realist 100 tons of Funny lady money over there I don't know one person face space Nobody took us down grace S S You buy me a ticket to arrest the bankers and all company take us to the test good morning No class No S Good job you want to five boxes Five bucks very good for it S Somebody on the outside who is involved with the the style, the staffing says that basically, they resisted, and that now they're going to immediately begin making arrests. That's. Why police are clearing out the entire side. So basically This is gonna turn forceful S S S S S No S Tell me That's, not gonna S S S S S S S S B S Was gonna a black Suvs showed up in front of the building someone on the part of the Wido Emblematic Commission or whatever was telling his supporters that basically the negotiation failed for a non forceful takeover. And so they are going to go in and forcefully removed them It's unclear exactly which agency this weird black man that showed up this But it is quite possible that That's what they're going to detain them into the garage Gross Point S Yeah, I'm trying to S S S It's pretty evident to me that this black Suvs was placed here to scare the people watching of course, there's lots of press That's made it here. Now I would say that I was one of the first ones to be here, but of course, there's lots of media That's here and so they put this black as you basically right in front of the most important spot S No The rest of my S Why are you coming down S It looks like a really download it government vehicle The federal government S Work S S S है S Yeah S S S S S Oh my S S Little S S Pocket again, the again there's for visible remaining S For somebody N S S Thank you S Federal S S S S S S S S S S S He's these police and just a lot Applause They're going We'll be right back with more S No S S Look at you S S S It's gonna be hard and we will try to go people outside here of the people are feeling up what's happening secret service So they resisted arrest They refused to leave on their own So federal law enforcement is now here and they're supposedly gonna start arrest soon okay we're given the opportunity to leave on their own The people who are chanting behind me are primarily provide folks, but they're kind of mixed in with the code pink folks both of them on the side of the Street and there's additional greater supporters to this side of me S M Like I said, oh yeah S Just now M Windows S S S For the S It's like Oh S है में हैं Sorry that's are you recording I'm Live S Live Take the stuff out To be some of the have now connected direction of police and they are moving what they left on the sidewalk before they they were Supplies are not being by the Venezuelans S S S Attention being taken away now Watching from busy S S So, just right now, the the folks clean up their stuff That's outside the building. So That's. What you're seeing is a movement that you were just saying is basically they the police, having the widow activist come and take everything they had some tents set up. They have lawn chairs things like that they're having them take them out of the way before they take a second attempted preaching Earlier. What happened is that basically the police used they provide in this sort of power tools that the the fire Department doing in order to open the door they created snap open a lock that was put on by the activists And then they had a conversation they were trying to flashlights inside. They open the door and they were speaking with the activists who are inside the building and their Attorney was actually present during that conversation and then the cruise left empty handed They reclose the door and a relaxed kind of a lock. They shut it again and close it and so the last we saw them at least four activists are still in the building and on the second floor they were waving out the window They finally just close They waved goodbye and close the window and we were just told by somebody in one widow sort of administration as as Trump acknowledges it explains that basically those negotiations for town be over jurisdictional issue. They weren't Basically lawyer convinced him not to do it and the police were trying to get the and now it seems like the police are gonna have to make the arrest with the prolonging and as long as they possibly can S S Thank you for Never S S Service A little bit Moving on And they will push this Wide outside Council S S S S S S S Again, the movement that you see is that the police, because now they're gonna basically be making a forceful entry at some point they wanted Everything will move from the side so they have asked the people to go there pack up all their stuff and take it away so That's sort of what we're looking at now and of course they placed these two gigantic black Suvs in front of everything, so it's a little hard to see what's coming off C S S S Yeah S S S To answer two questions, somebody asked is that video I'm, not sure if you actually saw him on the Street, but he is here Yeah, he was right Yeah, no, he was no. He has been here. I'm Not sure if the person asking the question actually just saw him. But he is generally speaking like like on this block of the Street and and It's ever lived. His assistants were out here too right yeah and this I mean I can see one of these but The other question was is this Washington DC Yes to be clear This is the Venezuelan Embassy in Washington DC which is in the community of Georgetown S They're clearing up S They've already I think S S S You do this S S We already have S S S S S S Signs are coming down Purple Oh Sure में S S S Video This 10 'clock right I Barely That's. All this started S They put up a fight That Flexing Christmas but on the outside of the White House would like to believe, I suppose the thing is meant to be something probably enough fun from the diplomatic The Ceo is here Sister here Assistance S S S S Sorry S S S See we even as well i don't know where all of you all S Final District Completely S Mommy I'm Not very true S That's Why Oh S S S S S Baby or maybe sometimes right or Costa dropped in And you had to endure Enjoy the S है The Street is open new burn from me S It's carry, possibly I think that I think one of the I think one of the people inside just compensation So far. If you want to explain that my life so what one of the She writes this is the 30 first है है अल्लाह S S S I see one commenter names I see one how much her named Carrie who reports to me someone who's inside. If you actually are when you come in to confirm that you're, actually, one of the people is inside the building A little bit S S S S Save them Down the Street. Now this is Ashley Thirtieth Street in Georgetown Person Actually preached for hour The first is to shut down I might have to do to repair this will find hours This might be the longest license 54 a few times Kevin Not times for So some company So everything else on Saturday, but there were Now three hours away Cuz I'm, like I'm like this is like a story what's gonna happen It seems like S Citizen Forever Three hours and seven minutes Spot Breathe S S Noticing just S S I recognize This has to be said we shouldn't move too S so it's hard to tell us happy vehicle Several Republicans over their muscle Results I see See people who are not part of either side here, just kinda walking by and watching what's going on again. This is George sounds pretty busy neighborhood Neighborhood here Diplomatic security S I think they're still they don't really want to be inside S Background It's possible they could they could sign up Outside right now Working sidewalk before So I don't see anybody come out yet Please You're kind of in a holding pattern Just outside Especially The signs over there One is you Federal government Together there's definitely no Russian The activists inside of gone somewhere they were before Supplies at the point of supporters have been on the sidewalk over there have cleared out Super Close No one declared themselves. Sparticus Something happening please something happens I guess Cory Booker They don't need warrants now They could get it. Doesn't seem like something They are activists who are against the US kind of involvement, and in their view one widow is a manifestation of us involvement of course, people on the other side see differently But so those people inside are basically American activists. It's, not political figures of any government S Prison Really help S S S S S On a serious note, Emma who works at Mint press and sort of a fellow independent journalist, with the kind of Organization J Three. So Hi I'm commented that she believes that there's four people inside I have personally witnessed and again. This is after three of them left to be clear. Three people left earlier since then I have physically seen four people simultaneously in the window. It is possible that there are activists inside other than those four I can't discount that possibility Emma says there's four In my opinion. There is at least four But four confirmed S S Awesome Thanks S Nick Camp says that could pick confirms that there are four people inside and so That's, in addition to saying that she believes it and of course, my eyewitness exactly for people So it seems like it is a although unconfirmed, I think It's a reasonable assumption to make that they're precisely for people inside the building permit it, Commenter said. That could be good for But the comments are also planned for Santa So I'm Not a puppy, well there's misinformation out there S So how much have you heard that conversation before the actual shut the window The windows up there I can't afford that are still inside the embassy, another commenter says media veterans' support currently saying for us to be eventually be Empty Absolutely Right Police pickup truck Car over here Vehicles I thought I was gonna get more in the way there's another That's Where S S S S S S I mean from the entrance of the store Stand officer Not Thirtythree S S S S S S Great Night for National S S S S S Kevin's mother Flowers is behind him The activists taking their Kevin out their faces our Kevin Z's on the left and Margaret Flowers on the right We're still here Having a saying good night and we'll see you tomorrow that widow lost the cube And so they believe that they're gonna make it through the night inside which is questionable Some of the folks are mocking them, saying Don't Shop S S This one lady on the second floor pass the tree raising their fist at the window Restaurant S She's yelling We love you, Jerry, which is reference to the President of Veterans for Peace who was arrested trying to throw a cucumber too, though S S S S S Just joining us It says I love cucumbers Yes, I'm if You're listening, I know that you would probably love cucumbers. But if you're inside during like situation, like this you probably want something a little higher calorie you criticize you know what folks this is important Everybody Camera Small cooking presence S है करना they they have lost really games so please welcome date Federal S S S Come set this room number I don't have my glasses on and dark Can't. See it Next one S S S A couple hundred. S You don't always S C S S S S S Next time Bye S Hey Karen So you got S Pend against the sign S S Someone has how many people are there inside We talked about this earlier, but we have basically considering confirmed information that there precisely for people left inside and at least three people left earlier to leave us at that total S S S S S C S S S S S S Somebody asked whether Alex never got his sings they're, referring to Alexander Rubenstein, who is journalist inside who held up a sign that said the seized journalist need cigarettes and to answer your question I spoke to him briefly when he left the embassy today and so he he's out I assume he is smoking like a chimney now I assume he got the cigarettes or maybe quit if maybe that lead him off since he ran out. I don't know but and one way or another dancer question Alex sing us out which is a good question S S S S They have not been able to get food into the building for quite a while and this earlier today, you can see actually earlier on the news feed that earlier today I filmed when they tried to use a pulley system to get in and police cut the rope. Police prevented the food from getting in so they don't have access to food resources the water has been either sabotaged or cut It's not exactly clear why they're not getting water but there's no more water And their electricity was cut two days ago and that was a quite. Obviously the police is doing so again because It's reaching the four hour Mark It's Gonna force me to shut down the live stream I mean he used the opportunity to post some updates on Twitter My Twitter handle is at Ford Fisher It's My exact name and then I'm Gonna go into a part two so Carrie just asking you go into another live stream Yes I'm Gonna quickly do some some tweets to update the Twitter sphere but then I will go to a part two on this live stream so stay tune.
