looks like a more than Mostly peaceful protest.
I do not agree with destruction of public property. that is wrong
however airing ones grievances in a public yet peaceful manner is Democracy.
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

$750 billion is a drop in the bucket compared to what we give in foreign add every year. "Opinion polls consistently report that Americans believe foreign aid is in the range of 25 percent of the federal budget. When asked how much it should be, they say about 10 percent. In fact, at $39.2 billion for fiscal year 2019, foreign assistance is less than 1 percent of the federal budget." Brookings Institute

as long as people are just peaceful non destructive , non looting nut jobs then they may be nut jobs.
I am reminded of the time the anti Walker (former governor of WI) protesters occupied the state capitol building for days in protest of his plan to no longer collect the union dues on behalf of the union through payroll and told the union they could get the members to each write the union a check each month.
that was declared " how Democracy works " by news agencies calling this an insurrection and a coup , terrorism.
