!! ALERT

Series of beatings against police and another defendant of carrying zip ties & chemical spray in new court filings

Stick with me on this THREAD

First: Jonathan Pollock who allegedly said "We didn't come all this way just to stand here .. just to push back the cops"
Feds say Pollock grabbed and pulled an officer down the stairs, punched multiple officers in the face and appeared to choke another

Court filings show images allegedly depicting Pollock leaping over others and engaging in hand to hand combat

(MORE)
Joseph Hutchinson is charged in same case. He's accused of charging at police line, kicking at officers and pulling an officer out of the way. And he's accused of throwing punches

There are others charged.....

(MORE)
Josh Doolin is charged in same case. According to court documents, Doolin is seen with zip-tie handcuffs in his belt and chemical spray

(MORE)
Olivia Pollock is charged in this case too... accused of striking police with her elbow and hands
Michael Perkins is final defendant named in case.

Feds allege he threw a flagpole at officers and was part of the charge against police line
The number of people charged with assaulting police on Jan 6 seems certain to rise, based on what court filings and FBI press releases are saying this week.

Court docket does not immediately show if any pleas have been entered
** Not brand new filings. But from recent days. Case is gonna be new to DC court

NEW: Virginia political organizer and a military vet file federal suit, seeking court order to HALT the UFC fight at White House:

"This plan is deeply corrupt.. President is giving (Dana) White & his company what none have enjoyed before: unfettered access to the White House.. to stage a private, for-profit sports event"

MORE: In new fed. suit seeking a HALT to the White House UFC fight:

"The UFC is not being coy about the event’s pecuniary nature. One executive recently called it 'the greatest earned-marketing tool of all time.' He is far from the only one salivating at the business upside"
Suit challenging UFC fight at White House:

"The ostensible occasion for this spectacle is the semiquincentennial. Dana White says that the aim is to “to celebrate the 250th birthday of America.” Although June 14, 2026, will also be Trump’s 80th birthday, White has steadfastly maintained that the timing is just a coincidence"

FLASH: Justice Dept confirms it is establishing $1.776 billion fund "for victims of lawfare and weaponization to be heard and seek redress"

Fund will have five members and "issue formal apologies and monetary relief owed to claimants"
Justice Dept defends $1.776 billion fund by saying, "There is legal precedent for such a Fund, most notably the Keepseagle case where the Obama Admin. created a $760 million fund to redress various claims alleging racism against the federal government over a period of decades"
And there it is:

About $1.7 billion taxpayer-funded pot of $$

Justice Dept says, "Fund will consist of a Commission of five members appointed by the Attorney General. One Member will be chosen in consultation with congressional leadership. The President can remove any member"

MORE: 93 members of the US House are seeking to make a filing in the Trump $10 billion lawsuit against his I.R.S.

They've hired former Democratic Attorney General of New Jersey Matthew Platkin to represent them

Congress has been BLASTING this Trump lawsuit
MORE: A blistering court filing has just been submitted in Florida by 93 Democratic Members of Congress opposing Trump's $10 billion lawsuit against his own I.R.S.

In part the filing says, "10 billion could fully fund almost the entire annual budget for federal child welfare spending or the National Cancer Institute for a year. Or it could be used to purchase childcare for a million young families. Instead of serving these worthy purposes, the President instead asks this Court to allow him to use collusive litigation to force the American people to put that money into his pockets, and the pockets of his family and friends"
