"Unprecedented" in #FBI history:

What we know about the Capitol riot arrests

Federal prosecutors have charged 164 people for their roles in the riot and opened over 400 investigations into possible criminals.

BUT 800 ENTERED THE CAPITOL BUILDING

#MOG cbsnews.com/news/capitol-r…
TREASON

8 Insurrectionists are #veterans and 2 currently serve

4 Insurrectionists worked as law enforcement officers

19 traitors were from extremist groups, including the #ProudBoys #OathKeepers #ThreePercenters #TexasFreedomForce #QAnon

#MOG
The January 6 mob was largely male, at least 19 women have been arrested for their alleged participation

34 defendants whose ages are known, the average age was 40

The youngest known rioter is 20-year-old... The oldest were 65-year-old
40 were released, sent home after posting bail or agreeing to supervised release (WHY?)

How much evidence exists?

The Feds issued +500 grand jury subpoenas and search warrants, and have fielded +200,000 digital media tips from people hoping to share evidence of the riot

Center-right Republicans fear party headed for disaster

Their worry is that the party is branding itself as the party of insurrectionists and conspiracy theorists. This spells catastrophe for the GOP’s ability to appeal beyond a hardcore base

#MOG thehill.com/homenews/admin…
Tensions within the party are at boiling point.

A spokeswoman for Rep. #AdamKinzinger (R-Ill.), one of the 10 GOP House members to vote for Trump’s impeachment this month, sent The Hill an email statement blasting #QAnon’s Greene.

#MOG
“Congressman Kinzinger has said from day one that QAnon has no place in Congress. And while he respects the voice of the people and their right to elect a #MarjorieGreene, he does not agree with the decision to give her a committee seat”

“Wow what a slap in the face,” Karla Semien wrote

Nearly a quarter of the residents in Allen Parish are Black

When she and her children went to the cemetery to pick out a plot, the saleswoman “just looked us cold in the face, and straight-up said, ‘I can’t sell you a plot,’”
The saleswoman also reportedly said that the graveyard was not for people of color

“It’s a white human being-only cemetery”

H. Creig Vizena, the board president said that he was stunned to learn Semien was denied burial.

He fired his 81-year-old aunt, the salesperson...

The Justice System Is Going Too Easy on the White Insurrectionists

The vast majority of those 800 criminals were white, which means the vast majority are walking around free, at least for now.

Only around 125 people have been arrested so far.

#MOG
thenation.com/article/politi…
People at Justice are leaking to the press that they’re worried that bringing cases against these people would “overwhelm” the courts

That’s an absurd claim.

Every criminal court in a major metropolitan area in this country is “overwhelmed” with cases...
Most arrested have been released... WHY?

Every single person who breached the Capitol that day committed a crime. Every single person who breached the Capitol is, presumably, on video, captured by security cameras, committing that crime.

Impeachment officer details the case against Trump as the second trial begins

“... That being a despot, drunk with power, trying to keep his grip on power and using the people of this country to try and stage an insurrection."

#MOG rawstory.com/impeachment-of…
Trump has engaged in a prolonged effort to overturn the results of the 2020 election and spent months spreading disinformation and the results falsely claiming that he had won by a landslide," she explained. "He stated it would be illegitimate to accept those results”

PREMEDITATED ATTACK

He brought individuals to #DC on Jan. 6

[It] was an extremely important date in his mind and in our Constitution's time, because there was a time where the entire body of Congress along with the VP would be present at the Capitol to fulfill our duties
