@Caligirl2023 @wolflovesmelon I know! I’m so happy for him! He’s an inspiration to many of us.

@WP_Wolverines @wolflovesmelon That’s wonderful news!

I will soon be leaving the bridge. I want to give heartfelt thanks for all the outpouring of support. My purpose here has been to fulfill my duty to the truth- to call on the people of this country to recognize and exercise the revolutionary power within us- the power of collective nonviolent action and non-cooperation with evil- by which we can bring an end to these hateful wars and the murders committed in our names. It is only with the passive compliance of millions- our obedience- our willingness to continue to do what's expected of us: to go to work, to school, to pay our rents, our mortgages and our taxes, that the Trump regime can remain in power and these wars continue. One man on a bridge is relatively powerless, but the collective withdrawal of our obedience and support is capable of bringing a swift end to the regime and its wars. This nonviolent collective action is our greatest power and it is the exercise of this power that those who rule fear more than any weapon. For the sake of the world, its children, and our future let us build this power with each other, together.

@Caligirl2023 @wolflovesmelon He was released. CODEPINK (Madea Benjamin) made a video.

@WP_Wolverines @wolflovesmelon Thank you for letting us know. I didn’t see any post shared about this. It needs to be shared widely.

After days on top of that bridge, Guido Reichstadter is finally down and free after being jailed for his act of protest. No food. No water. Wind. Rain. Arrest. And still, his message was simple: “We have the power. We just have to have the courage to use it.” Guido climbed that bridge to demand an end to war and to remind all of us that ordinary people still have the power to resist violence and empire through courage and nonviolent action.

These are the same three charges he faced when he climbed the bridge in 2022. In that case, he pled guilty to one misdemeanor and was sentenced to 90 days jail (all suspended), 18 months probation, and a $50 fine. x.com/FordFischer/st…

NOW: Guido Reischtadter, having come down from the Frederick Douglas Memorial Bridge yesterday, is charged with three misdemeanor counts: -Unlawful entry -Disobeying police order -Blocking or incommoding

@_alturky2001 @wolflovesmelon He was arrested and is in police custody. He was charged with crowding, obstructing or incommoding, unlawful entry and failing to obey an officer.

“We have the power to end the war.” - After 6 days, the man who scaled the Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge in protest against the war in #Iran has finally come down. We spoke to Guido Reichstadter (@wolflovesmelon) moments before officers took him into custody. @DCNewsNow

This man/veteran is a hero‼️ stop the war‼️

The protester who scaled D.C.'s Frederick Douglass Bridge on Friday afternoon and pitched a tent is off the bridge on Wednesday morning and now faces charges. nbc4dc.com/Me06Ymp

A woman sends prayers up for this person atop the Frederick Douglas Bridge (5/6/26 9:30a)

FINAL: Police Activity. S Capitol Street NB/SB on the Douglass Bridge. Washington DC, SE. The incident has concluded, and all travel lanes are reopened. Delays remain on the Suitland Parkway and extend on I-295.

After five days on top of the bridge, Guido is finally coming down. Through wind, rain, and exhaustion, he stayed up there to sound the alarm about the wars in Iran, Gaza, Lebanon, and Palestine and to remind all of us that silence is not an option. He risked his life to send a message and now we all have a responsibility to do more. Thank you, Guido.

LOCAL ALERT: The Florida man who scaled D.C.’s Frederick Douglass Bridge has come down, ending his 6-day protest. wtop.com/dc/2026/05/man…

@xMeaghanMaureen @wolflovesmelon He’s made it down the bridge safely, he’s in police custody in an ambulance.

@wolflovesmelon Someone should drone fly you some water and food man stand strong don't come down I literally just found out about this today

Hi it's Guido! I'm still here on the bridge. My water ran out Sunday & I'm heading down in the morning. I'll probably be going to jail for a while when I get down. I'll be handing off this account and hopefully we can stay in touch. I hope that this action has offered something to motivate and inspire you, and that it can serve as fuel for greater commitment and action in the cause of peace and in the fight for our future. End the Wars! Stop AI! Free DC! See you soon! Bella Ciao!
