THREAD:

!!!! US Justice Dept releases messages allegedly sent by accused US Capitol Insurrectionist Kelly Meggs **planning** the riots and chaos before January 6.

"DC is no guns... if you have armor that's good"
Kelly Meggs of Florida allegedly created an alliance between extremist groups ahead of Jan. 6, according to messages released by Justice Dept.
"Trump's staying in, he's gonna use the emergency broadcast system on cell phones......."
A reference to a "QRF" in this message. Prosecutors allege Oath Keepers prepared an armed "quick response force" outside of DC on Jan 6 to be part of a second wave
"This isn't a rally"
"I hope Trump handles this .......... does he have the testicular fortitude"
Kelly Meggs is accused of being part of the "stack" of insurrectionists who stormed through the crowd in a military gear, using a military tactic.
"We are now the enemy of the state"..... "We are reloading"....
Kelly Meggs is a 52 y/o from Marion County, Florida. His defense attorneys are seeking his release from custody pending trial, arguing he's not accused of physical damage inside Capitol and that prosecutors have sought to "inflame" the court with accusations

THREAD: Some horrors are described in a court filing against alleged US Capitol insurrectionist Michael Lopatic of Lancaster, PA. He's accused of "pummeling" a DC police officer as that officer attempted to save a wounded colleague
He allegedly grabbed the officer by the head and threw uppercut punches
Then... amid the savage fight.... he allegedly stole the officer's body-work camera. Showing "the foresight to traverse an angry mob to take what would have been a crucial piece of evidence in bringing those who attacked officers... to justice"
