NEW N.C. man Jeremy Bertino is set to become first Proud Boys leader to plead guilty to seditious conspiracy in Jan. 6 plot, potentially implicating former Roger Stone aide Henry 'Enrique' Tarrio, Ethan Nordean and Alex Jones employee Joe Biggs.
In a sign of the sensitivity and potential importance of Bertino's testimony, the government in a plea deal agreed to seek leniency at sentencing and to enter Bertino into the government's witness security program in exchange for his "substantial cooperation."

November 22, 2022 10 Comments
The Proud Boys, a far right extremist group, has announced that they will be gathering at a drag queen story time event in Columbus on December 3rd.
The Holi-drag Storytime event is slated to be held at the First Unitarian Universalist Church of Columbus and is described as “a new family-friendly, LGBTQ+ holiday tradition in Central Ohio.”

I’m a gay man, but why in the world are drag queens reading stories in children’s schools ? this is so insane ! STOP this nonsense ! This is a selfish attempt by these drag queens to get attention.

Drag Queen story hours are sponsored all throughout the world and are truly entertainers getting children to love books. I think you might have it wrong about what actually happens at these events.

All sorts of groups read to children, literate people tend to like it. I fail to see why drag queens should be any differnt.

(original: Daily News)NYPD gives Proud Boys free subway rides after neo-fascist group disrupts Drag Story Hour in Queens: video
Michael Gartland, New York Daily News
Tue, January 3, 2023 at 1:23 AM GMT+1
Members of far-right extremist group the Proud Boys got free rides on the city’s subway system last week — courtesy of the NYPD, a video of the incident shows.
The video clip, which appears to have been taken after members of the Proud Boys protested a Drag Story Hour event at a Queens library last Thursday, shows a group of the notorious white nationalists streaming through an open slam door at a Jackson Heights subway station — and a police officer telling the irate person who’s filming that the Proud Boys could ride gratis.
Only minutes earlier, the Proud Boys and supporters of the Drag Story Hour clashed, with police reporting that pepper spray was used by some of the people who gathered to protest and counter-protest the controversial event that features people dressed in drag reading books to children.
In a statement released Monday afternoon, the NYPD said that “to deescalate the situation and prevent further violence a decision was made to escort one group to the Jackson Heights subway station to remove the group from the area.”
“Due to the urgency and rapidly evolving situation, a determination was made to place the group on the subway and remove them from the area before the situation could escalate further,” the NYPD said.

The headline "NYPD gives Proud Boys free subway rides after neo-fascist group disrupts Drag Story Hour in Queens" seems a little misleading, like "Free rides! Great for the Proud Boys!" when it sounds more like "Let's get them the hell out of here."
Yeah, I know, NYPD.

It seems about as "misleading" as "police give proud boys free taxi ride" if they shoved them into the back of a police van.

Seims like convicted felon attorney Racist Roger is allowed to defend a PB in DC PHV. His track record at defending poots suggests a conviction is likely but we shall see.

I thought that a felony conviction almost automatically results in disbarment. How can he be defending someone in court, PHV or otherwise?

Have you ever seen The Producers? I can just imagine the jurors after that argument sitting open-mouthed & stunned, like the audience after the close of the number "Springtime for Hitler." /232

Now atty Roger Roots for def Dominic Pezzola.
[we're seeing a photo of a young man in a football uniform in front of two coaches, each of whom looks black.]
Pezzola is a flooring contractor from upstate NY. lots of commercial flooring, linoleum, tile carpet.

It would appear Roots has a valid law license from Rhode Island.
I do not know if in Rhode Island a felony conviction causes "automatic" disbarment. (Nothing is "automatic"; there are still processes.)

Break over and now this:
Now there's a delay because Carmen Hernandez (for Rehl) failed to show her slides to the govt beforehand the way all the defs were ordered to do and all the other def lawyer did. She's flipping through them now for judge outside presence of jury.

It was a close call but the racist felon was admitted to the RI bar by the RI Supreme Court in 2000.

New: Defendants in the Proud Boy’s’ J6 sedition case said on Wednesday that they intend to subpoena Donald Trump as a witness at the trial.
That hasn’t flown w/judges in other J6 cases so we’ll see where it goes.

1. I guess they really want to see what the underside of a bus looks like because that is the only result if they actually manage to get Trump to testify.
2. Are these defendants who want to subpoena Trump in the current trial? I would think you have to work that type of stuff out before the actual trial. I may be losing track of who is on trial and who is still on pre-trial.
