Prosecutors also quoted from an 88-second video rant titled "KILL YOUR SENATORS" posted two days after the U.S. Capitol siege.
He allegedly spouted the white-supremacist slogan "ZOG" after a barrage of threats.
Complaint in the story at the top of the thread.
"ZOG" is short for the white supremacist conspiracy theory of a "Zionist Occupied Government," and "88"—the length of the video—is neo-Nazi code for "Heil Hitler," after the eighth letter of the alphabet.
His social media trail—on Facebook, YouTube, Reddit, BitChute and elsewhere—is filled with extremist, conspiratorial fanaticism of all stripes, plus pro-Trump fanfic about the 2020 election.
I will not be sharing those accounts here.
By fanfic, I mean conspiracy theories interspersed with images of Ben Garrison-style cartoons of a leaner and superhero Trump.
The videos didn't get many viewers.
