I happened to arrive in D.C. the day after a massive peaceful protest in support of a cease-fire in Gaza, which had left its residue around the city: discarded fliers reading “Stand with Palestine” and stickers on a light post demanding, “Ceasefire Now!”

Video footage from the rally also showed the protesters breaking out into the national anthem, while holding American flags and signs reading, "Stand for health freedom," and "No forced vaccination."

Typically, such blazing heat records happen in July — the Northern Hemisphere’s hottest month — which makes Sunday’s 130-degree reading stand out.

Protesters in the park held a banner reading “Stand up Australia” near a statue.
