Chansley: "I was wrong for entering the Capitol. I have no excuse. No excuses whatsoever. My behavior was indefensible. Number two: I may be guilty of this crime. But I'm not a dangerous criminal.. I'm not an Insurrectionist.. I'm a good man who broke the law"
Chansley: "I'm nothing like these criminals I've been incarcerated with"
Chansley says he told the FBI everything.. because he's a "man of truth"

Plea agreement hearing in Jan 6 case of James Little of N. Carolina
Little is accused of texting amid the mob:
"We just took over the Capital (sic).. We are stopping treason! Stealing elections is treason! We’re not going to take it anymore!”
Little's plea deal is to a misdemeanor. Unlawful picketing/parading (he joins the growing list of Jan 6 defendants cutting this deal)
0-6 months jail are the guidelines
$500 restitution. (Little just asked why he's gotta pay if he didn't cause damage)
There's a back and forth over whether to prohibit Little from possessing a firearm as he awaits sentencing. Defense says Little lives in the country... in the Piedmont area of N. Carolina and once had to shoot a wild animal attacking his dog
