Radical protesters have used vans to block the entrance to Mount Rushmore ahead of President Trumps speech. They are taking the tires off so they can’t be driven. That’s okay because a couple of tanks can move them with ease.A couple hundred soldiers could arrest them all. Remember, this is a federal crime and the DOJ will lodge charges.
In order to stop this kind of nonsense we must arrest and prosecute as many as we can and eventually they will learn to protest without the violence they currently use as domestic terrorists. I suspect some strong action will be taken to remove the blockade and the protesters.

Oglala Lakota tribe member Nick Tilsen says Mount Rushmore is a “symbol of white supremacy.”
“When you carve out four white men who were colonizers, who committed genocides against indigenous people … and for that to be okay in society today is fundamentally wrong.” pic.twitter.com/mrnM4RJgpC

I am waiting with bated breath to see how this develops. These thugs cannot be allowed to get away with this.
