Jeebus crap, can't they stop him??? He's still continuing (and escalating) this behavior. If we can't stop him, who can we stop?
A black guy with a broken tail light?
That can cause accidents though.

Thank you for your diligent posting on these terrorists. I don't have a twitter account (although I do have a number of people bookmarked) and this helps me keep up on things.

You are welcome, but LOL, I don't have a Twitter account either. I just have some names I can follow via web browser

Judges have allowed Jan 6 defendants to do the following while awaiting trial:
1) Multiple trips to Mexico (Cancun)
2) Attending wedding 100s of miles from home
3) Beach vacation in Alabama
4) Family trip to N. Carolina
"The former President’s threat against a U.S. Capitol Police officer is only the latest in a long line of vile Republican attacks on the officers who risked their lives to protect the U.S. Capitol on January 6"
An Ohio man who was identified by online investigators in the aftermath of the Jan. 6 attack was arrested by the FBI on Thursday and charged with attacking law enforcement during a brutal siege on the western side of the U.S. Capitol Building.
Dave Mehaffie of Dayton, Ohio, was known to online investigators as #TunnelCommander because he was issuing orders to members of the mob who were attacking officers during a brutal battle at the lower western terrace entrance to the Capitol. Mehaffie was 86-AFO on the FBI’s Capitol wanted list, meaning he was wanted for assault on a federal officer.
A judge signed an arrest warrant for Mehaffie on Aug. 4 after he was indicted by a grand jury as part of an existing case.
Mehaffie was involved in one of the toughest battles of the Capitol siege. Members of the mob had stormed past police barriers and ascended the scaffolding set up for President Joe Biden’s inauguration on Jan. 20, and were attempting to break into the building. During the “medieval” battle, members of the pro-Trump mob kidnapped D.C. Metropolitan Police Officer Michael Fanone, who was repeatedly electroshocked. Rosanne Boyland, a pro-Trump member of the mob, was trampled during the brutal clash. The woman’s brother-in-law said that former President Donald Trump “incited a riot” that killed one of his “biggest fans.”
But here’s a real “holy shit” facial recognition moment: When one sleuth plugged in a photo of Dave Mehaffie from back in high school… it pulled up a photo of him at the Capitol decades later.
Not everybody who stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 deserves criminal punishment, according to Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas).
“If an individual assaulted a police officer, they should spend a long, long time in jail,” Cruz told HuffPost.
“If, on the other hand, the Biden administration is targeting and persecuting people for exercising political speech that is nonviolent and simply expressing their peaceful support for a political party different from that in power, that is not the purpose of our criminal justice system,” he added.
The Justice Department has arrested more than 570 people in connection with the attack. Many of the defendants have been charged with low-level misdemeanors, like unlawful picketing.
But even if they didn’t punch a cop on Jan. 6, those who stormed the Capitol weren’t simply expressing their “peaceful support for a political party.” They believed lies about a stolen election and were convinced they had to “stop the steal” as heirs to the American Revolution.
Now some allies of former President Donald Trump are upset that protesters who didn’t assault police officers are being charged with misdemeanor offenses, the same type of charges they’d face had they been arrested at any protest inside the Capitol. Demonstrations are banned within the Capitol complex, and even an errant laugh during a congressional hearing can get you led out of the room in flex cuffs.

NEW: I’m told Steven Cappuccio is #stripesguy, and was 123-AFO on the FBI’s Capitol wanted list. He ripped off Officer Daniel Hodges’ mask during the tunnel attack.
New indictment will add Federico Klein, two still-uncharged individuals, to Capitol tunnel assault case
Klein, a State Department appointee of former President Donald Trump, was previously charged individually. The other two individuals have yet to be charged.
WASHINGTON — The Justice Department plans to combine the cases against a State Department appointee of former President Donald Trump, six other defendants and two individuals who are expected to be charged soon in a new superseding indictment, according to a notice filed in federal court Thursday.
In what will be the fourth superseding indictment against at least some of the defendants, the DOJ says the evidence supports joining the cases against Federico Klein and “two presently uncharged subjects the government expects to be charged within 30 days” to those against six other men:
Patrick McCaughey III
Tristan Chandler Stevens
David Lee Judd
Christopher Joseph Quaglin
Robert Morss
Geoffrey William Sills
