#SeditionHunters - a six-person indictment today of III%ers, the first such from the Capitol attack (link). All from CA, tied to a group called the American Phoenix Project. No pics but Hostetter is shown in his local newspaper. 1/

Suspect the 6 are @DianthaSol's #TwistedTeaPosse which includes at least one from Lake Elsinore CA. Indictment matches their appearance at the Capitol - armed, armored, angry, but slightly clownish. Former police officer is expected for 3Pers. 2/
At least one perp from the new 3Per indictment likely deserves a #SeditionVIP hashtag as a rally speaker - here's #IAmAlanHostetter on Jan 5th with VA seditionist #IAmThomasSpeciale of Vets for Trump and the Army Reserve (h/t @PotrzebieSystem) 3/ Image
#IamAlanHostetter is well-known in So. Cal. and had some angry exchanges in February with people he thought had turned him in to the FBI. 4/
And of course @chadloder is onto Hostetter too, along with his insurrection buddy Russ Taylor. 5/
While the #TwistedTeaPosse looked a little silly to us, they are serious enough to hang with the big boys. Here at the Jan 5 VA Women for Trump rally are 1. Thomas Speciale, 2. Alan Hostetter, 3, 4. security guys assoc. w/ Flynn, 5. Russ Taylor, and 6. Joseph Flynn. 6/ Image
And here's a slightly different view of the Jan 5 rally that shows the banner of Hostetter's American Phoenix Project prominently displayed. (You can also now see #IamAntonioLamotta.) This video is no longer public, but #SeditionHunters archive everything... 7/ Image
@DianthaSol has now matched up the rest of the indictment to #TwistedTeaPosse members
* Tony Martinez = #Cali3PHat
* Erik Scott Warner = #BirdPatch3P
* Derek Kinnison = #FashHat3PShirt
* Ronald Mele = #BlackTan3P
But 7 more are not yet charged.. 8/

#SeditionHunters - Thursday’s arrest of Alan Hostetter highlighted extremism in Orange County, CA, but even he is junior-league. We knew OC would send their finest, and here he is, the highest-profile #SeditionVIP yet: former U.S. Congressman Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA 42). 1/ Image
In 2016, House majority leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA 23) famously said “There’s two people I think Putin pays: Rohrabacher and Trump.” On Jan 6, Rohrabacher roamed the Capitol all day with a guy in a giant ushanka hat. Is this epic trolling by Russia? 2/
washingtonpost.com/world/national… Image
Rohrabacher’s been a fervent defender of Putin and Russia, lost his seat in the 2018 election. On Jan 6 he joined the attack on his former colleagues with his pal #RohraBoris, arriving early at the E. Plaza, then moving West by 2:50 PM, in time for the fighting at the tunnel 3/ ImageImage

#SeditionHunters - #BluePatch aka Robert Morss is finally arrested. Military service, Penn State student, wears the patch of Nevada. Always smiling at the Capitol, except when he was violently fighting in the tunnel. Photo at R. from @DailyCollegian 1/
post-gazette.com/news/crime-cou… ImageImage
Morss is from Reno, NV, enlisted in the Army, then enrolled in Penn State, hoped to become a history teacher - a success story, the American Dream. What happened? Below is the article from the Daily Collegian. 2/
collegian.psu.edu/news/campus/ch…
Morss arrested today by FBI Pittsburgh; employed as a teacher. He was ID'd early by #SeditionHunters, not clear what radicalized him. He's on camera in 2019 talking about gun rights, but not yet extreme. PA and NV both have produced many Capitol perps.. 3/

#SeditionHunters - want to know what the Oath Keepers did at the Capitol on 1/6? Here's a 'reel' for the newly arrested #SourOK aka James Dolan, 7 mins of action over the day, from the amazing @StevieG54099097. Compare to his indictment for conspiracy! 1/
documentcloud.org/documents/2079
In an interesting twist, Dolan is now represented by Michael van der Veen, one of Trump's lawyers during his 2nd impeachment. The other, Bruce Castor, also now represents high-profile Capitol defendents. Neither will comment. 2/

#SeditionHunters have caught another #SeditionVIP in his lies! A big one - AZ State Rep. Mark Finchem claimed he was only “300 to 500 yards away from the Capitol. I was never really there.” Oh yes he was! Let’s review. (See thrd, h/t @cMominator for find & @MThymol for video) 1/
First, why is Finchem a big one? Here’s Ali Alexander on Jan 10: “Arizona started with one man -- State Rep. Mark Finchem… now we’re dealing with 40 or 50 [state reps]....I’m very optimistic that Stop the Steal has already taken over Arizona” (Posted by Church Militant.) 2/
On Jan. 2, Finchem tweeted his DC plans: “I will be in Washington DC on January 6 to #StopTheSteal and fight for President @ realDonaldTrump”.... “This is one of the most important days our republic has ever seen. We need all hands on deck.” 3/

#SeditionHunters - some bombshell #SeditionVIP's today, & not just politicians. Here is TN preacher #IamPastorGregLocke, VIP speaker on 1/5, insurrectionist on 1/6. Some pre 1/6 quotes: covid is a "fake pandemic", "God almighty is about to dethrone Nancy Pelosi" 1/
Pastor Greg seems to approve of the Capitol attack; he preached violence this Memorial Day weekend: "When they impede on our 1st Amendment Right, we'll meet 'em at the door with our 2nd Amendment Right!" "We're going to fight back - this is our 1776!" 2/
#IamPastorGregLocke's sermons seem awfully political for a church that claims Section 501(c)(3) tax exemption: "We're not going to fall to this Joe Biden".. "I have a president, his name is Donald J Trump!" Might be time to read up on IRS guidelines... 3/

#SeditionHunters have wondered for months how the unruly crowd on Jan. 6 could produce synchronized action. Let’s ask an expert: Lt Col. Doug Mastriano (ret.), who taught Strategy at the U.S. Army War College & writes about “hybrid warfare” (link). 1/
fpri.org/article/2016/0…
Mastriano: Russia might use “not .. uniformed separatists.. but largely people in civilian attire, bemoaning fictional abuse... Hiding behind the veil of ambiguity, the unrest would appear local... If NATO [then] dithers”, Russian forces could move in “without firing a shot” 2/
Mastriano has gotten a lot of press recently for being an elected state rep. at the insurrection. But there are lots of those on Jan 6! So far AZ, GA, MO, PA, TX, WV... What sets him apart is this background. Here are some things that might scare you. 3/
