“You you think that's why we’re, you're here today? Just because you climbed the scaffolding?”

The moment when the FBI first starts pressing Trump enthusiast Danny Rodriguez on the fact that he electroshocked Officer Mike Fanone on Jan. 6:
"I'm so stupid. I thought I was going to be awesome. I thought I was a good guy."
“You know how many times I had to argue with people about backing the blue… and I tazed one.”
“So you tazered him to protect him?”

“I mean, that sounds stupid.”

"Marquez then held his vape pen up to the camera, as if to capture the arrogance of the rioters… smoking in a senator’s office during an Electoral College certification proceeding to formally elect the next President of the United States.”

DOJ wants four months behind bars.

NEW: Michigan’s Justin Jersey — aka #Fingerman — was one of the Jan. 6 attackers who helped kick off the online manhunt for Capitol rioters back in January.

The FBI arrested him up today.
huffpost.com/entry/fingerma…
One of his codefendants on the superseding indictment is a fellow Michigan resident IDed through similar means: huffpost.com/entry/logan-ba…
Justin Jersey is charged in a superseding indictment, so there’s no FBI affidavit laying out how this case was built. There is, however, this twitter thread:

BOOM: The feds got #fingerman, who brutally assaulted officers and was IDed by #SeditionHunters.
The “fuck you" tattoo on his middle finger helped, but he was also friends with another Capitol rioter who was already arrested, so unclear what got the ball rolling. Will post the court docs when we have them.
Tattoos are the unsung heroes of the Jan. 6 probe, probably followed closely by freckles and moles. ImageImage

“We are legit PIC,” one of the co-defendants wrote in the days after Jan. 6, using an acronym for Partners In Crime. “TMZ already released pictures of who they want. We’re good.”
Capitol defendant Rachel Myers, the feds say, is an employee of Delilah’s Gentleman’s Club and Steakhouse in Philly, and wore a Delilah’s backpack to the Capitol. So @PhillyDailyNews has their cover story set for tomorrow. Image
A friend of one of Myers’ coworkers told the FBI that Myers “claimed she was ok with a civil war 3 weeks before storming the capitol building with fellow terrorists.” Image

Capitol rioter Danny Rodriguez may look pretty pathetic in his FBI interview, but don’t let that distract says from the seriousness of Jan. 6, says Mike Fanone.

“Most of the people on the ground are buffoons, so what? There are 15,000 of them.”

huffpost.com/entry/mike-fan…
“They take a Danny Rodriguez interview, and they see that oh, this guy’s a moron. He’s a sad person who’s kind of pathetic in a way, and they think, ‘How bad could Jan. 6 really have been?’”

“They’re not looking at the big picture.”

Last week, Jan. 6 bus organizer Frank Scavo was sentenced to 60 days behind bars. Today, the feds released copies of his videos. (Thread) huffpost.com/entry/frank-sc…
Here's some of Frank Scavo's high-quality footage:
"This is top-secret shit, we're in the Capitol. Stormed the fucking Capitol of the fucking United States at 58 years old. What the fuck is wrong with America?" -- Frank Scavo
