NEW: The feds want Jan. 6 defendant Mariposa Castro to do 60 days behind bars.

“we’re breaking in! We are breaking in! We’re doing this. We’re breaking in, right?… We’re taking our house back. This is our Capitol. We’re taking it back. No more bullshit! That’s it.”

Passerby: It’s a war. It’s a civil war.

Castro: It is. It’s a civil war.

Passerby: Backed the blue all fucking summer and this is how they treat us? Fuck the blue. This is our country and we’re taking it back.

Castro: We’re taking it back. We’re not a communist country.

"During the interview, Castro falsely stated that the people being violent were Antifa and Black Lives Matter, not Trump supporters.”

"To the extent that Castro feels any remorse for her actions of January 6, 2021, she has not expressed so publicly."
