Assault on the Capitol (DC)

[Phoenix520]

The more video I watch from 1/6, the more I'm astonished that more officers weren't killed.

For me it’s that they have the unmitigated gall to call it peaceful protest, or political speech, or tourism.

[Slim Cognito]

or "unarmed" when we clearly saw officers tased, being beaten with flag poles, hockey sticks, I think even crutches and that was before we knew about the concealed firearms.

Many Jan. 6 defendants didn’t leave their firearms at home because of some high-minded commitment to non-violence, they did so because they were afraid law enforcement would enforce D.C.’s gun laws and arrest them up before they reached the Capitol. https://huffpost.com/entry/guy-reffitt- ... 230ff7?ew9

BOOM..... (i can't believe I'm about to type this)

Judge rules Bigo Barnett CANNOT go to the car show this weekend

"Court is not persuaded that the Defendant cannot pursue gainful employment within a 50-mile radius of his home"

[Kendra]

Courts are closed.. but Jan 6 court filings are still coming. Including one of the most troubling backstories I’ve read so far. Standby. Will update within 20 mins

Seems like a good time to repeat something that Shirley was posted upthread, that a bunch of them stored their weapons across the Potomac in VA with militia comrades hanging at the river in fishing boats, waiting for the word to ferry the weapons to DC.

[Kendra]

Just tourists and peaceful protesters.

A 30-year-old Ramsey man was charged Tuesday in Anoka County District Court with making terroristic threats and multiple counts of assault after he allegedly pointed a gun at children on Saturday.

Prosecutors allege that Brian Christopher Mock threatened three boys, ranging in ages 11 to 14, after accusing them of starting a fire in his yard, according to the criminal complaint.

A woman approached Mock and suggested he talk to the children’s’ parents, the complaint said. The woman could tell Mock had been drinking and called police.

When police arrived at Mock’s residence in the 14200 block of Dysposium St. N.W., he refused to leave his home, the complaint said. At one point, his wife and two children were able to leave the home.

Authorities say Mock threatened to kill himself, but he eventually came out of his home.

He is charged with two counts of second-degree assault, one count of fifth-degree assault and terroristic threats.

Keene, NH is definitely becoming a brand, whether the normal folks there want it or not.

Prosecutors make prominent use of the word "TERRORISM" in new filing against accused Proud Boy Robert Gieswein

He's accused of attacking multiple officers on Jan 6

Former fed prosecutor
@glennkirschner2
says the use of that term indicates a "case is building"

Jim Acosta just now ripped into Tucker Carlson and the Congress idiots for their alternate theories on who did it. A must watch,. I hope its posted to CNN and/or Twitter.

An award for tucker.

The whole segment is worth the time, I still haven't found it online. He's pretty fired up over the FBI was behind the insurrection madness.

[Luke]

Understand FRP and you're probably right, but interesting they are asking about it. They absolutely were involved with Akbar and kicking this off, if the Speech & Debate Clause covers incitement to insurrection that needs to be fixed at a constitutional convention. Note: Zerlina looks great, good for her taking on a journalism role, she seems really good. Gosh has she grown up!

01:04
HE WAS QUESTIONED ABOUT ANY

POTENTIAL TIES TO THE

THE EPICENTER OF THIS SPRAWLING

JANUARY 6th INVESTIGATION.

BUT HE WAS ALSO QUESTIONED ABOUT
01:16
WHETHER HE KNEW ANY MEMBERS OF

CONGRESS, ANY CONGRESSIONAL

STAFF, OR ANY CAPITOL POLICE.
01:20
TO ALL OF THOSE QUESTIONS, HE
01:23
SAID "NO."

BUT A FORMER FEDERAL PROSECUTOR

HERE IN D.C. SAYS THAT IS
01:29
INDICATIVE INTO AN INVESTIGATION

INTO POSSIBLE, POSSIBLE

I am really enjoying Scott MacFarlane's reporting, he says he's in it for the long haul. Looks pretty good on camera too

I think this is the whole segment, video at the link above.

NO VOTE: Public records show Capitol rioters from NC didn’t vote in the election

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (FOX 46 CHARLOTTE)- Brad Bennett of Randolph County stood in front of the Capitol recording a video right before he and hundreds of others stormed the building.

“Freedom baby. Tyranny ends today January 6th 2021,” Bennett said in a Facebook video.

That video was later used by the FBI to identify and charge him and 11 others, so far, from North Carolina.

In FBI charging documents, Bennett is described as a devote follower of the conspiracy theory QAnon.

Just days before the riots at the Capitol, Bennet posted on Facebook, “FAIR WARNING: If this election is stolen for Biden, Patriots will go TO WAR.”

But despite Bennett’s passion for the former President, it doesn’t appear he voted for him.

Fox 46 checked the voting records of all 12 people from North Carolina who are charged in the capitol attack.

Nearly half of them, 5, aren’t registered to vote in the state.

Another Trump devotee, Stephen Baker of Wake County, was recorded on a video posted to social media accusing democrats of rigging the election.

“Trump won,” Baker said.

But Baker, who according to the FBI live streamed videos while inside the capitol, also isn’t registered to vote in North Carolina.

Re: trump the FBI made me do it claims - How long before defendants and/or their attorneys make a move to use entrapment as their new defense strategy? We know the trump/foxitis defense isn't cutting it.
