Pro-Illegal Protester Taunts Marines by Showing His Mad Push-Up Skills – Twitchy

You’ll notice it’s the fat guy in the white jacket with the bullhorn who’s talking trash about the Marines (or National Guard, we’re not sure) stationed in Los Angeles. It’s not the shirtless guy jogging in place and doing push-ups to intimidate them. At least, we think he’s trying to intimidate them. Or maybe it’s just some new “Push-Ups Against ICE” group we haven’t heard about yet. (Language warning)

Los Angeles, CA 🚨: Protestor without a shirt does push ups in front of U.S. Marines and taunts them “let’s fucking go”, as protest has been deemed an unlawful assembly, and crowd ordered to disperse. pic.twitter.com/YstBeb88PB

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Dude did like 3 pushups and his butt cracks showing — they are laughing at him.

6 pushups and some light jogging-in-place is far from intimidating

Yeah, the jogging in place is pretty scary looking.

Even his hair is embarrassed and running down his back.

Nobody wants to see that shoulder back hair

This is the least offensive way to protest they’ve yet found, and should be encouraged.

Woooow tough guy. Not tough enough to actually start anything, but still- tough guy 🙄

All I see is someone that wanted to be a Marine.

If that’s all of the push ups he can do at once, I’m certain those Marines aren’t impressed. He looks like he’s wearing a sweater

Dude’s gonna get humbled real fast.

Meth is one hell of a drug

Most Marines will bust out 100+ pushups in a row in under 2 minutes. This guy did a max of 3 pushups per “set”. It’s like bringing nothing to a gun fight.

He does three pushups and then jogs in place. One is not like the other.

But at least he’s keeping undocumented neighbors from being detained.

Why are they so insufferable?

Dude would last about 20 minutes in the Corps. 😂

And that’s supposed to bother them?

— Faegir23 (@faegir_hrafn) July 5, 2025

As we said, we think he’s trying to intimidate them, but maybe he just thought he’d get in his workout while protesting.

There’s always someone who wants to start trouble then play fawn when the opponent fights back because they think the optics will work in their favor.

It’s why so many dislike outsiders filming them, it can break the narrative they’re trying to make.

Dude, they are right there just waiting and hoping they are the lucky one.

He knows he’s perfectly safe. If only there were a longer video where he assaulted one of them.
