Overview

• A flyer schedules the event for 6:00 to 6:30 p.m. in a University of Virginia parking lot and promotes hot dogs alongside flag burning imagery.
• Organizer Kirk Wolff, a UVA law student and U.S. Navy veteran, said he planned the protest on behalf of the Friends Against Fascism Organization, an unofficial group.
• A university spokesperson said FAFO is not an official student organization and no approval was granted, adding that officials are reviewing the post’s legitimacy.
• UVA noted that people affiliated with the university may engage in expressive activity in certain public spaces if they follow university policies and applicable laws.
• The flyer drew national attention after White House strategist Greg Price shared it on X, and the protest references Trump’s executive order as legal backdrop to the 1989 Supreme Court precedent.
