A common theme this year is extremist takeover of local GOP organizations. Last week it was Sarasota Fl, which elected Michael Flynn & Proud Boy James Hoel. The Daily Beast article left 1 thing out: Hoel is #SecretSquirrel, wanted by the MPD for Jan 6. 1/

On Jan 6, Hoel marched to the Capitol with the main group of over 200 Proud Boys, sticking close to his now-arrested FL buddies Dan Scott (#MilkshakePB) and Christopher Worrell (#SgtPepperSprayer), and confronted officers on the W. Plaza. (Annotation by @CassanderGrant.) 2/
Here's James Hoel aka #SecretSquirrel staging with his buddies a group of Proud Boys in front of the NW Scaffolds just before they were violently breached. Dan Scott was up front attacking police; Hoel and Worrell ducked out. 3/
#SeditionHunters - a long-awaited Jan 6 milestone: the Proud Boys, engines of the Capitol attack, now have seditious conspiracy charges too. Over 200 Proud Boys marched from the Wash. Monument, rushed the first police lines, were there at every breach. 1/

The Proud Boys were so integral to the Capitol attack that they were our first "reels". Here's leader Joe Biggs, former US Army, former media (reporter for InfoWars), pal of major US politicians - he links all the worlds. Full reel at link. 2/
#SeditionHunters - it seems the Proud Boys are flipping. One of the "big four", ex-Marine Charles Donohoe (#YutYutPB), who led over 200 Proud Boys to the Capitol, is copping a plea - see article. Here's Donohoe and the Proud Boys shortly before the rush of the NW Scaffolds. 1/
Here's Donohoe entering the scaffolds, just behind Pezzola (#Spazzo) who soon after broke the first window to set off the Capitol invasion. The other Florida Proud Boys who helped break the police lines have peeled off to the side and are skipping the action - typical for PBs. 2/
Unlike the rest of the "Big 4" of the Proud Boys leadership, Donohoe never entered the Capitol building. He ranks with them, but he bailed out of the scaffolds fight, then stood around on the lawn and never re-entered. So why is he flipping now? 3/

One year ago, today, the Proud Boys marched in D.C. and attacked our Capitol.
They still think they have the numbers.
They don't.
They think they are stronger.
They aren't.
They think they are smarter.
Not a fucking chance.

They said they would be in record numbers.
They said they would try to blend in.
They didn't lie.
I made a list of 100 Proud Boys and associates from Eddie Block's video.
Some got popped by the feds.
A lot haven't.
With the civil suit D.C. has brought...

identifying them takes on even more importance.
So, starting from my original 100, I'm going to start dropping the names we figured out.
As a community.
From #SeditionHunters to #Antifascists and everyone in between.
How many Proud Boys can we name in DC on J6?

Old-fashioned video watching thread: Starts on west walkway just after initial barrier breach, behind #ColSandersPB (0:00). 3:20 #InfoWarsPB. 3:24 someone with #greentapegroup #seditioncoms. 3:33 #GreyStripeGaiterPB
3:39 #fashproshop. 6:06 #EddieBlock. 6:33 no idea what is up with the orange dunce hat stick. 6:35 this guy with the #seditionkeffiyeh looks familiar but no idea why.
6:42 green armband #greentapegroup? 7:13 #KnitFlagScarfPB possibly talking to a buddy (who?). 7:45 here is the face of the guy with the orange dunce cap on a stick. 9:23 #KnitFlagScarfPB's possible buddy has black "army" hoodie and "we the people" red hat.
