#SeditionHunters - we told everyone that conspiracy charges would come for some not physically present at the Jan 6 Capitol attack. And now they're here - Proud Boy leader Enrique Tarrio has been charged. 1/
washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2022/…
Tarrio wasn't in DC on the 6th because he was arrested for an old offense, told to leave. That arrest has always been odd. We know Jan 6 was green-lit the night of Dec. 18th. Just before, Tarrio reached out to multiple media outlets to confess a crime...2/
docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d… Image
The indictment is an excellent read - it carefully lays the case for conspiracy via timeline, showing how events follow each other. On Dec. 19, the first announcements for Jan 6 go out. On Dec. 20, Tarrio makes an encrypted chat for Proud Boys leaders. 3/
justice.gov/usao-dc/press-… Image
Just as a reminder, Enrique Tarrio, chairman of the Proud Boys, is a protege of Roger Stone - picture is them together in 2018. Joe Biggs, who led the Proud Boys march on Jan 6, is a former employee of Alex Jones at InfoWars. 4/
miaminewtimes.com/news/roger-sto…
The indictment follows the timeline we had worked out, with some bombshell additions. The first: on Dec. 30, Tarrio receives a 9-page plan for the Capitol attack from an unnamed person. They all know this is big, serious: Donohoe calls it a "completely different operation". 5/ Image
Tarrio continues self-protective CYA, refusing to be specific about plans "until Jan 4", & ostentatiously leaves a voice message Jan 4 morning saying that he had, oh! only just heard now that someone might want to storm the Capitol! That's a man considering his legal exposure. 6/ Image
2nd bombshell: Tarrio was still working with PB leaders. We knew that after the arrest, other leaders created a new encrypted chat, fearing Tarrio's was watched. Now we know: on Jan 5th eve. Tarrio was added to the NEW chat, & Biggs, Tarrio discuss the plans they'd been given. 7/ Image
Proud Boy messages on the 6th are also informative. As the gathered PBs march around the Capitol in the morning, Donohoe texts "WE ARE WITH 200-300 PBs". #SeditionHunters had counted 235 of them. 8/
The new indictment adds more PB texts, making it even more clear: Proud Boys leaders were commenting on the action as it unfolded, and Tarrio was following. Look at the timing of actions (red) and messages (yellow) during the main attack period. Every advance gets a text. 9/ Image
One surprise: Tarrio's mention of the Rayburn (House) office building. We'd thought something bad might be planned for the Russell (Senate) office building, because OAN (not news but propaganda) was set up there. This post is 2:09 PM, just as invaders took the NW stairs. 10/ Image
The new details from Tarrio's indictment are added to the 'VIP timeline', not yet to other docs in bit.ly/Jan6Analysis. See those timelines for video links, tho. All are crowdsourced efforts by 100s of volunteers in the #SeditionHunters community. 11/
docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…
Update: Tarrio arrested this morning in Miami, at his father's house: early AM, FBI agents hid in the bushes, then swarmed the house, put Tarrio in handcuffs - fully naked. See NBC Miami article for video; pic here is after they let him get dressed. 12/
nbcmiami.com/news/local/ex-…
Tarrio is such a public figure in Miami that new coverage should be great; just a reminder now of his deep connections. Here he is with Donald Trump Jr. and Kimberly Guilfoyle in 2019, from the FB of his fellow Latinos for Trump leader Bianca Gracia. (h/t @AuntBeethe1st). 13/ Image
On Dec. 12, just before the 'dress rehearsal' rally in DC, Gracia and Tarrio both got a tour of the White House. Gracia's well-connected herself - her son interned for Jody Hice, R-GA. On Jan 6, the line between attacker and attacked was very blurry. 14/
salon.com/2020/12/15/how…
Two minor corrections: 1) it's Proud Boy Rehl, not Donohoe, who calls Jan 6 a 'completely different operation' (h/t @visionsurreal). 2) some claim Tarrio was not fully naked when arrested (watch). Life hack: if under investigation by FBI, wear PJs. 15/

As weird as it is to see Trump, his VP, SecDef, and SecState out in DC with hardly any security, it is weirder that it was Codepink that was protesting. Codepink is an astroturfed "women for peace" group whose "peace" means giving Putin whatever he wants. Slavishly pro-Russia. 1/
Codepink has left such a long trail of dubious actions and shadowy funding that @P_Kallioniemi, who posts about Russian influencers, needed 23 Tweets to outline it all. If they are involved, tonight's events were not a normal protest. 2/
Medea Benjamin, Codepink co-founder, is so committed to Putin's talking points that she wrote an entire book about the Russia-Ukraine war rehashing them: Ukraine provoked the invasion! 2014 in Ukraine was not the people's liberation but a US coup! Nothing about this is normal. 3/ Image

Welcome comrades to the new free-speech university UATX, created by the co-founder of Palantir! Today after early-morning calisthenics we will discuss the writings of the Palantir CEO and also co-founder. Be ready to discuss his belief that companies must take over the state. 1/ Image
Tomorrow's topic: how Joe Lonsdale and Alex Karp exemplify Merit and not Woke DEI! Both
* were student friends of Peter Thiel. Lonsdale edited Thiel's Stanford Review.
* spent their entire careers in companies created or funded by Thiel
Next week: "Freedom is Slavery"
-- UATX
2/
Comrades - building an empire of proteges is not Woke DEI but Righteous Merit! Because your friends obviously have more Merit than those, well, other people. Competitive job applications bad, hiring your friends good! - UATX. Where Speech is Free!

Eric Schmitt's blood-and-soil nationalism at Peter Thiel's NatCon this week is making news - but this isn't new. Schmitt's staffer Nate Hochman, posting here, was fired in 2013 from Ron DeSantis' campaign for pushing a video where the Florida flag turns into a Nazi Sonnenrad. 1/
MO Senator Eric Schmitt hired Hochman AFTER he got internationaly famous for using a Nazi symbol. That tells you a lot. Schmitt didn't mind the Sonnnerad, or Hochman's later work pushing conspiracy theories about immigrants. 2/
theguardian.com/us-news/2025/j…
When you listen to Eric Schmitt deny that America was founded on an idea about liberty - he says it was just meant as a homeland for white people - remember this guy is fine with Nazi Sonnenrads. And he's now in the US Senate. It can happen here. 3/

The guy who is going viral complaining that "we" have judges who aren't what "the founders intended" is... based in Italy, named his substack after a cultish Russian philosophy, and uses a profile picture of a man who grew up in Nazi Germany and became a mercenary in Africa. 1/ Image
Note that this account isn't "captivedreamer7", the now-famous racist who is actually Canadian. This guy seems truly European from his posts and his pretentious Substack, which is very focussed on the German officer Ernst Junger (anti-Nazi at the end). 2/
web.archive.org/web/2025080301…Image
His profile picture is another German soldier: Rolf Steiner was too young to join the Nazis (though his father did). Like Junger he went to the French Foreign Legion, then tried to overthrown the government of France and fought in a French mercenary unit in the Biafran war. 3/ Image

The techbro takeover of the US continues: while CDC employees "clap out" their principled leaders who resigned, Trump swears in a 2-decade Peter Thiel advisor to lead CDC. Thiel's Palantir already has all your data. He controls your VP. Now he controls your public health too. 1/
No one's even trying to hide the Thiel takeover anymore. Jim O'Neill's been a key Thiel lieutenant for nearly 20 years. He ran the Thiel foundation, Thiel's Clarium Capital and Mithril Capital (the one that employed JD Vance). 2/
citizen.org/article/jim-on…
Jim O'Neill's not just a Thiel lieutenant, he's a true acolyte, pushing all Peter's fruitcake ideas: building government-free floating cities. Achieving eternal life. Getting kids to drop out of college. And he says drug safety testing is for wimps. 3/

Trump's posts are getting really transparent. His plan for power - probably Jan 6, certainly now - is to create a violent, chaotic event and order in troops. He's saying it plainly now. He's also invoking the antisemitic Soros conspiracy created by his own political mentors. 1/
What's happening in the US makes more sense if you get that it's the same group of people doing the same things, over and over. The Soros conspiracy was created by a US political advisor - Roger Stone's mentor - to elect Hungarian autocrat Viktor Orban. 2/
The US is not special, and our would-be fascist overlords - not just Trump but Silicon Valley techbros - look to Hungary as a model. Orban crashed his economy and made Hungary the poorest country in Europe, but he got power and that's what they want. 3/
