Former CEO Brad Rukstales is objecting to the release of videos of what he did inside the Capitol building, with his lawyer arguing "further publication of media, video, and images related to his case could deleteriously impact his well-being.” huffpost.com/entry/bradley-…
"The publication of the video clips only serve to harm Mr. Rukstales’ interests as a private citizen who has already taken responsibility and been held accountable for his conduct.” ImageImageImageImage
"Mr. Rukstales accepted responsibility for his actions, and the public record in this case is replete with detailed descriptions from both parties describing the contents of the video clips as it relates to Mr. Rukstales…” storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco… Image
Brad Rukstales was sentenced to 30 days behind bars. huffpost.com/entry/bradley-…

Jan. 6 defendant John Lolos is going off on a rant about voter fraud during his sentencing. ImageImage
John Lolos: “I see a window, it’s broken, people are going inside, yeah, I went inside, your honor.”
Lolos is going on a pretty batty rant, now claiming that “the smallest police officer I’ve ever seen in my whole life” was encouraging him to come into the Capitol.

He dismisses his agreed upon statement of offense: “We can stick to that version if we want to, your honor."

Seeing a claim out there that the DOJ “designated Jacob Chansley a domestic terrorist.” Big, if true. It’s not. While DOJ accurately referred to Jan. 6 as an act of domestic terrorism (using boilerplate language), they did not seek a terrorism sentencing enhancement. ImageImageImage
Here’s the language in the government’s memo in the Paul Hodgkins case from July versus their memo in the Jacob Chansley case this month: ImageImage
“The department is very judicious about deploying the term [domestic terrorism] in the first instance, and typically will only do so in the backend of litigation when the facts and circumstances are going to be clear.” huffpost.com/entry/white-te…

David Mish’s sentencing is underway. Judge Carl J. Nichols is concerned that he has to choose between incarceration and supervised release.

Position has been that judges have to pick one. But DOJ may change stance in J6 cases going forward, arguing for BOTH jail and probation.
Judge Nichols seemed to want to keep Mish under supervision for a longer period of time given Mish’s background, but was concerned that locked Mish up for 30 days would preclude him from giving probation as well.
More context from @ZoeTillman here:

BREAKING: “QAnon Shaman” Jacob Chansley sentenced to 41 months in federal prison. huffpost.com/entry/qanon-sh…
Jacob Chansley told the judge he wasn’t “an insurrectionist” or “a domestic terrorist,” just “a good man who broke the law.”

He said he would “do everything differently” if he could go back and relive Jan. 6.
