The scheduled detention hearing for the Jan. 6th defendant known as #FacepaintBlowhard will begin soon.

Read more about his case here, @lawcrimenews: lawandcrime.com/u-s-capitol-br…
Prosecutors said that Lazar "loved" a Facebook post with the threat against Antifa/BLM/Democrats, which began with the words "Arm up" and "March to D.C."

Lazar didn't write the post, but he screenshot-ed it, circled it, and pointing at it, feds say.
The post pre-dated Jan. 6th and was from circa December, the prosecutor said.
Judge on why Lazar might pose a continuing danger:

There is an "ongoing belief" in the "illegitimacy" of the current president, even well after Jan. 6.

New order in Ghislaine Maxwell's case:

"Feds Must Disclose ‘Identities of Any Unnamed Co-Conspirators’ to Ghislaine Maxwell, Trial Judge Rules"

Developing story, @LawCrimeNews lawandcrime.com/high-profile/f…
As the hed suggests, the order is about disclosing the identities to the defense.

The story and screenshot further clarify that the identities are limited to those that prosecutors plan to refer to at Maxwell's trial in November.
This could be a rather short list:

Prosecutors say they currently plan to refer to co-conspirator statements by two people—but that could change.

That hedge is one of the grounds Judge Nathan ruled against prosecutors.

There's another very interesting part of the order.

Judge Lamberth just accepted Jacob Chansley's guilty plea.

Developing story. Hearing ongoing.

"Horned, Furred, and Face-Painted ‘Shaman’ of the U.S. Capitol Siege Pleads Guilty in Federal Court" lawandcrime.com/u-s-capitol-br… via @lawcrimenews
Arguments over pre-sentencing release continue:

Despite saying Chansley's psych eval showed him competent, Watkins insists that it also revealed mental health issues warranting release.

"I want to get him healed and on the road to get him further healed."
Judge Lamberth said he'll take the pre-sentencing release issue under advisement.
