I was there when the flashbangs started. They'd teargassed us by then, a few times. I can confirm, that must've been 12:40-1:00ish. By the time I got there, the barriers had already been torn down. That happened BEFORE Trump even finished speaking, because there was a guy with a speakerphone about halfway announcing that it'd already happened. That was only about ten minutes into the march. Just before I got to the Supreme Court building, if I remember correctly.
