Court hearing for Jan 6 defendant Pauline Bauer of Pennsylvania. Bauer says she's sovereign citizen & author of filing below ==>
(She's pleaded not guilty, made multiple disruptions in prior hearings.. feds want her ordered back to jail)
STANDBY **
Judge has just rejected Bauer's motion to dismiss case... in which she questions authority of court over her
Bauer is apparently standing up and interrupting judge as he specifies his order
Judge is reading from prior case (from 2011) in which he explains the rejection of sovereign citizen claim/argument
Bauer has apparently stood up multiple times and disrupted. Judge has again admonished her
Prosecutors say plea discussions are underway in case of Bauer's *co-defendant*... but they say they haven't heard from Bauer about whether she's interested in plea discussions
Pauline Bauer is now speaking "They've had nine months in this dog and pony show" .....
"I did no harm... I did no damage.. a dead entity cannot be a victim"
Bauer just told judge she can't get help at her business... because "everyone is getting unemployment and doesn't want to work"....
Then: "How do you arrest people without any evidence?"
Judge asks Bauer if she is free for further hearing on Oct 29
Bauer is now disrupting judge and standing again..... He's trying to stop her.... she's not stopping
Her microphone is muffled

STANDBY: Donald Craighead is scheduled to appear in court this hour. Craighead, of California, is accused of having a machete in his pickup truck near Democratic National Committee headquarters yesterday. And police say the truck had a swastika image on it
Per court filings from prosecutors, Craighead told Capitol Police, "Why are you pulling me over when there are brown people hurting white people" ==>
Prosecutors' court filing says the machete in Craighead's truck had a 21-inch blade and was on his front dashboard
Heads-up: Court hearing is beginning in Jan 6 case of Brian Mock
Mock's accused of multiple assaults vs police (One of which led to "excruciating pain" for officer), alleged threats vs ex-girlfriend, prior case of putting gun to kids' heads
He's pleaded NOT GUILTY.. standby
Feds tell the court they have made a plea offer (verbally) to Mock. More formal offer forthcoming, per prosecutor
Standby... Mock is now speaking. And says he has a series of complaints about prior proceedings
Right now: Defense for Ethan Nordean is again for arguing for his release from jail in Jan 6 case, saying family will put up $1 million bond. Defense has accused Feds of falsely suggesting bond $$ might be “dirty money” (lawyer argued same to me in series of emails)
Feds are arguing Nordean was conspirator. And they tell judge “minutes after he arrived at Capitol, he stormed the gates”
Prosecutors specify there are “hundreds of thousands” of video files that are now part of US Capitol riot investigation. That’s one reason it’s being called largest criminal investigation in US history
ALERT: US Capitol Police announce disciplinary actions against six officers for conduct on Jan 6. Nothing criminal per agency. News release linked here ==> uscp.gov/media-center/p…
US Capitol Police: “The six sustained cases should not diminish the heroic efforts of the United States Capitol Police officers. On January 6, the bravery and courage exhibited by the vast majority of our employees was inspiring”
USCP (more):
6 disciplinary cases -
•Three for conduct unbecoming
