#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/

#SeditionHunters know the Capitol attack was organized. The J6 Committee knows too. Rep. Zoe Lofgren: "There was a planning. There was a purpose. And we are going to uncover all of that." Consider - if the attack had succeeded, how world events might be unfolding now... 1/
There are too many links between the Capitol attack & Ukraine. From Russia this week: Maria Butina, convicted foreign agent, honeypot with ties to J6 figures, now a Duma Rep, shows how to draw the fascist "Z" on your jacket to support invading Ukraine..2/
Maria Butina famously seduced Patrick Byrne, faithful henchman for former Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn. Here's Byrne at Flynn's side at the 'dry run' rally in DC on Dec 12. Six days later, both men were in the Oval Office pushing Trump to green-light Jan 6. 3/

#SeditionHunters & those who #StandWithUkraine can help by reporting long-time white supremacist Twitter accounts now posting against Ukraine. Here are Cassandra Fairbanks (then at Russia's Sputnik News) and Tim Cernovich making the white power sign at the White House in 2017. 1/
Here is Fairbanks (@ CassandraRules) today mocking NATO and U.S. military. She had been trying to analogize Ukraine and US borders. Fairbanks is now at The Gateway Pundit, supposedly US-owned but the sympathies are the same. 2/
Fairbanks has a bunch of re-tweets telling people not to believe "hyped-up hero stories" (e.g. soldiers Snake Island are still alive!). Meanwhile Mike Cernovich (not Tim, typo earlier!) , an open white supremacist, is busy blaming Zelenskyy. Report him: @ Cernvoich. 3/

#SeditionHunters and journalists: as Russia launches its attack on Ukraine we will hear - are hearing - U.S. public figures praising Putin. The same who also pushed the Jan 6 attack. Realize: the PR groundwork for today was laid over years. Here is Jack Posobiec last month. 1/ Image
Posobiec, chief propagandist for the alt-right, is so obvious he's a guide to whatever op is current: election fraud, racial division, trucker convoys, war. Candace Owens is almost as reliable. Both ex-actors, 'platformed' in 2016-2017. Here's Candace & Jack last month. 2/ Image
Last month was the signal to panic: Posobiec temporarily changed his Twitter name to "Jacek" in January and started posting about Ukrainian territorial integrity. He's a barometer for disinfo, a pure tool. But he represents many, not just 'influencers' but also politicians. 3/ ImageImage

#SeditionHunters - #GreenPlaidLady finally arrested, Shelly Stallings of KY. On Jan 6 she was with #PlaidBearSpray, Peter Schwartz of KY (the felon on probation who skipped drug rehab for DC). It's not going to be a complicated case (video h/t @MThymol) 1/
After spraying officers on the W. Plaza, their group moved up to the Lower W. Terrace tunnel. Here's Stallings exiting just behind Schwartz, after being pepper-sprayed. They're now jointly indicted, tho only Schwartz has charges for tunnel assaults. 2/
Image
Here's the indictment, & video of another bear-spray assault by Stallings on the W. Plaza (h/t @CMominator). These folks aren't organizers or militia members - 'normies' willing to commit violence were key to the Capitol attack. 3/

#SeditionHunters have watched hours of Capitol attackers screaming "traitors" to US police; the same now happening in Canada. Video from Global News, at the Ambassador Bridge 10:13 AM Sat. The tactical vehicle is apparently Ontario police, not military. 1/
10:39 AM, police try to sweep the bridge. No riot gear, but at least two tactical teams in back. The Ambassador Bridge is (normally) the busiest international crossing in N. America and a key conduit for automobile manufacturing. 2/
As of today Ford's Ohio Assembly Plant (1600 workers, medium-duty trucks) is shut for lack of parts. GM sent shifts home early on Friday. 3/

#SeditionHunters - as Canada tries to clear its invading trucker convoys, they're gearing up in the US. A year after Jan 6, reporters are savvier about the scale of organized disinfo campaigns used to mobilize crowds. Good thread & article from NBC... 1/
nbcnews.com/tech/internet/….
Here's a thread about it by NBC's Ben Collins, who emphasizes the fake and foreign Facebook accounts, the disinfo campaigns pushing conspiracy theories, the grifters and the political interests, the fact that "truckers" are largely not in fact truckers. 2/
As we saw for the Capitol attack, once a date is chosen - this year it's Mar 5 - the influence machine rolls into action quickly. Several rally promoters are now pushing parallel campaigns to mobilize people on that one selected day. 3/
