Here's what's striking if you read through the 460+ US Capitol Insurrection criminal cases ...

So many defendants in US Capitol Insurrection are accused of threatening or invoking the name of Nancy Pelosi

Haunting allegations

(thread)
Charging documents say Oliver Sarko of Ohio has video from Jan 6 saying, "Bring out Pelosi"
Leonard Ridge of Pennsylvania is accused of saying "America First B***h" upon entering Capitol and using Snapchat to say he raided Nancy Pelosi's office
Richard Harris of Florida is accused of picking up phone in Capitol and saying, "“Can I speak to Pelosi? We’re coming b*** ."
Feds allege Audrey Southard-Rumsey also said "Tell Pelosi we are coming for that b**" before shoving police sgt & pushing him into door w/ flagpole ("felt like he was being trampled")
And.. there's Richard Barnett of Alabama. The man accused of putting his feet on desk in Pelosi suite, taking mail and leaving vulgar note

Fundraising website for his legal defense is offering signed photos of Barnett with feet on desk.... for $100

Court documents obtained by @cbsnews said pardoned Jan 6 rioter Christopher Moynihan was arrested Sunday after saying in text messages that he planned to "eliminate" Hakeem Jeffries when the top House Democrat spoke at an event in New York City on Monday.
According to a court filing by prosecutors in the New York state criminal case, pardoned Jan 6 defendant Christopher Moynihan wrote, "Hakeem Jeffries makes a speech in a few days in NYC I cannot allow this terrorist to live."
Moynihan also allegedly stated: "Even if I am hated, he must be eliminated, I will kill him for the future."

Moynihan faces a felony charge of making a terroristic threat, according to court filings shared by prosecutors.

ALERT: James Comey files 51-page motion seeking to dismiss his criminal case, arguing "government’s animus toward Mr. Comey led directly to this vindictive and selective prosecution"

Here it is: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
From defense argument:

"Trump has installed his former personal lawyers and advisors as high-level officials in DOJ, including as Atty General, Deputy Atty General & FBI Director. He has then publicly and repeatedly urged those officials to investigate and prosecute his longtime perceived political enemies"
From page 11 of James Comey's defense filing, arguing "vindictive prosecution"

FLASH: Brian Driscoll, the former acting FBI director who was fired by the Trump Administration last month, has filed a federal civil lawsuit against Kash Patel, Pam Bondi and the President
Driscoll and two other fired FBI leaders (Steven Jensen and Spencer Evans) allege their federal rights were violated when they were fired

Suit: "Patel not only acted unlawfully but deliberately chose to prioritize politicizing the FBI over protecting the American people"
Lawsuit filed by fired acting FBI director Brian Driscoll:

"Patel explained that there was nothing he or Driscoll could do to stop these or any other firings, because 'the FBI tried to put the President in jail and he hasn’t forgotten it.”

NEW: Judge Jia Cobb rules in favor of Federal Reserve Board governor Lisa Cook, temporarily blocking Cook's firing by Trump

In a 49-page ruling, Cobb finds Cook's procedural rights were violated and that Cook made a "strong showing" in her argument

(MORE)
Judge Cobb's ruling in favor of Lisa Cook:

"The President’s equivocal claim that Cook 'may have made false statements on one or more mortgage agreements' refers only to conduct that may have occurred before she was confirmed to her position"

The Judge italicized the word "MAY" Image
Judge Cobb notes that Lisa Cook didn't receive "notice" or a "hearing" before Trump sought to fire her for cause
