“I’m invincible,” Landon Mitchell bragged to a Facebook friend 11 days after he stormed the U.S. Capitol.

You’ll never guess what happened next.

The criminal complaint here shows Gracyn Courtright on the floor of the Senate with her stolen “Members Only” sign. When she pleaded guilty to “entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds” in August, there was no mention of her presence inside the chamber. Image
The reason that’s an issue is that entering the chamber is sort of where prosecutors have drawn the felony line, and Courtright got a misdemeanor plea deal. huffpost.com/entry/gracyn-c…
Paul Hodgkins, who was on the floor, is currently serving an eight-month federal prison sentence for a felony. huffpost.com/entry/paul-hod…

BREAKING: Chief Judge Beryl Howell orders Cody Mattice detained until trial.

Judge Howell said it was clear Mattice pre-planned to come to the Capitol and “fuck shit up” on Jan. 6.

She called the evidence against Mattice “overwhelming” and “very strong."

#FenceSnatcher
Judge Howell said some of Cody Mattice’s family members acted "as if he were a hero, as if he were a patriot that day, as opposed to what most of us saw, which is criminal conduct that shook the foundations of our democracy." huffpost.com/entry/cody-mat…
🚩🚩🚩Judge Howell said that Cody Mattice's view that he was acting like an American patriot on Jan. 6 was "a big red flag for this court." 🚩🚩🚩

Hearing underway shortly on the detention of Cody Mattice, a "stay-at-home dad” who attacked cops on Jan. 6.

DOJ: “the defendant’s care of his children is commendable. But the needs of his children… did not stop him from using pepper spray against officers.” #FenceSnatcher ImageImage
Government also argues Mattice’s mother, brother, sister, aunt, and fiancée all either "encouraged him to riot, supported his choice to do so, or condoned his behavior after-the-fact.” storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco… ImageImage
"Cody from Rochester.mp4” will be part of the record.

“When will the bigotry end?” Trump enthusiast Troy Smocks asks Judge Tanya Chutkan, who is now about to sentence him.
Judge Chutkan says it is “offensive” and “audacious” for Smocks to hold himself up as a victim of racial discrimination.
“I have not seen a scintilla of evidence” that prosecutors are making decisions based upon race, Judge Chutkan, a former public defender, says.
