Democratic state and local officials are targeting alt-right and free speech groups who plan to hold rallies in nearly a dozen U.S. cities over the next few months despite last weekend's violent ending to a white supremacist event in Charlottesville, Va. San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, for example, have asked the National Park Service to rescind its permit to a group called Patriot Prayer, which has permission to hold a rally on Aug. 26 at Crissy Field (pictured).
