A federal judge in Washington, D.C., rules that the National Park Service (NPS) cannot revoke a permit for an anti-Trump protest that includes a flag displaying the phrase “86 47.” The dispute centers on whether the wording should be treated as a threat. Court filings and reporting say the Secret Service viewed the phrase as potentially linked to a call for violence against President Trump and that federal officers ordered the flag removed after the issue arose. The NPS sought to revoke or interfere with the protest permit, arguing it could present a safety concern. In Monday’s ruling, the judge determines that the protest’s display is not a threat of violence against the president and that the NPS lacks authority to block the permit based on that rationale. As a result, the group is allowed to continue flying the flag as part of the permitted, ongoing demonstration. The outlets agree the court rejects the government’s characterization of the “86 47” message as threatening political violence, at least for purposes of the NPS permit action.
