It’s an action that is celebrated by the insurrectionists and those that support them.

I have a hard time believing the artist/people that placed it aren’t supporters. It’s an extremely misguided thing.

And as for whoever approved it? It’s the freaking national mall, some decorum is warranted. “It’s just a joke, bro” doesn’t really work here.

The article quotes the permit application, which calls Pelosi's desk symbolic of the integrity and democracy which the rioters desecrated.

"Overturn an election" is a dead giveaway that they are against the insurrectionists. That's not a phrase that supporters use.
