New Capitol case: Lois Lynn McNicoll was arrested today in Industry, California, per court records.
"...the red and white flag draped across McNicoll's shoulders appears to be a variant of California's state flag -- The Bear Flag -- where the words CALIFORNIA REPUBLIC have been replaced by the words TRUMP COUNTRY.”
In a voluntary interview, McNicoll allegedly told the FBI that she knew about the U.S. Capitol’s barriers and security measures, but still claimed “she did not feel that she was doing anything wrong.”

She also confused the crypt for the rotunda.

Since a certain crowd on here is cherry-picking this low-stakes Capitol arrest, just wanted to make sure they picked up on this recent case as well:

Here’s a Capitol update that #seditionhunters have been waiting for: Gabriel Brown — who repeatedly said his name and even signed it — has been arrested. He was FBI 204-AOM and #IAmGabeBrownPB. Image

BREAKING: A man in the Oath Keeper stack has testified before a grand jury under a plea deal with the federal government that includes a cooperation component. Mark Grods is in court this afternoon. huffpost.com/entry/mark-gro…
"Delaying the government’s need to notify other defendants about Mark Grod’s related case… will ensure the defendant’s safety while he cooperates pursuant to his plea agreement and testifies before the grand jury.” huffpost.com/entry/mark-gro…
Grods will admit he entered the Capitol rotunda carrying a large stick moments after others he’d traveled with entered and assaulted law enforcement. huffpost.com/entry/mark-gro… ImageImage

Back in January, when the feds first charged Michael Foy with attacking officers with a hockey stick during the Capitol attack, they said they found him through "open source research.” Now, in discovery, they disclose a facial recognition search. ImageImage
They don’t disclose the name of the facial recognition software in the discovery letter, but you can tell from the affidavit that it scrapes public Facebook photos and you can make an educated guess. justice.gov/opa/page/file/… Image
So in a addition to finding a violent insurrectionist off his girlfriend’s Instagram, the feds got a violent insurrectionist off his dad’s Facebook page. huffpost.com/entry/facial-r…

"FUCKING TRAITOR... MACE HER!”

Feds say a Trump fanatic arrested in the Jan. 6 attack egged on the assault of a New York Times photojournalist.

She traveled to D.C. on a bus paid for by Pa. state Sen. Doug Mastriano, a major backer of Trump’s Big Lie.

Here’s Sandra Weyer posing with Doug Mastriano: Image

“FUCKING TRAITOR, GET THE FUCK OUT!”

Sandy Pomeroy Weyer was arrested in Pennsylvania today in connection with an assault on a New York Times photographer during the U.S. Capitol attack.
“I seen no riots. I saw Patriots sick of being lied to and the election being stolen from us!… I saw no violence from the Patriots!”
"Weyer can be heard yelling: 'GET HER OUT, MACE HER’ as the [member of the news media] victim is again pushed back by her assailants as they flee.” storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…

William Barr knew Trump’s mass voter fraud claims were “bullshit” from the beginning. Trump had telegraphed his plan for months (years!) before the 2020 election. Yet Barr let those ugly lies ferment for nearly a month after the election. Joined @AliciaMenendez to discuss:
That’s in addition to allowing a top Trump-appointed federal prosecutor in Pennsylvania issue a highly unusual public statement in Sept. 2020 about an ongoing investigation (into an election worker’s mistake) that further fueled bogus claims about mass voter fraud.
What Trump did after the 2020 election was so incredibly predictable that you could’ve prewritten your story about it ahead of time. He made clear what he was going to do over and over and over again. huffpost.com/entry/trump-vo…
