BIG VIDEO THREAD: On Jan 24, FedEx driver D’Monterrio Gibson was shot at while working in Brookhaven, Mississippi.

On Saturday, he returned to the scene of the shooting to tell his story with the armed protection of Black Panther groups and the Elmer “Geronimo” Pratt Gun Club.
I spoke to D’Monterrio Gibson & his mother. Gibson says "We appreciate everybody that's coming out" for him but he feels "it's not respected though, at least by the law enforcement.

He wants "upgraded charges, them going to jail" for the men who shot at him while he was working.
As the armed groups supporting D’Monterrio Gibson were leaving, several police officers including Brookhaven Police Chief Kenneth Collins (in the overalls) confronted them, telling them to "leave the area" and escalating as they had been trying to leave anyway.

Super long customer service line here at CLT airport in Charlotte after cancellations.

My layover was supposed to be roughly an hour, taking off at 3pm for a 90 minute flight.

@AmericanAir kept gradually delaying, it’s always in the way soon, for ~10 hours.

They cancelled it.
I could have figured out some other plan if @AmericanAir had been forthcoming, but instead they slowly postponed the flight all day until just about 1am.

Announcement on loud speaker says no checked luggage will be returned, airport closing now.

All local hotels booked.
With their customers’ luggage trapped in the plane, an announcement saying “no accommodations” will be offered, and customer service closed until 5am apparently, @AmericanAir customers (including me) basically are standing in line just waiting for it to open again in four hours.

Tonight I spoke to Gabriel and John Shipton, the brother and father of @wikileaks publisher Julian Assange.

@GabrielShipton says "there's a real opportunity for President Biden and Secretary Blinken to sort of walk the walk" on international human rights by releasing Assange.
John Shipton, father of @wikileaks Julian Assange, tells me that continuing to prosecute would be a "terrible burden upon President Biden's legacy."

"Removing the prosecution of Julian Assange would be a great gift to the United States," he adds. "He would be fondly remembered."

During the March for our Lives on Saturday in Washington DC, a man created panic stormed the stage yelling "I am the gun!" and was forced away by security.

Some microphone issues, so parts of this clip are muted (but not edited.)

Filmed by @T_Jones_Media for @N2Sreports
United States Parks Police escorted the man who had stormed the stage screaming "I am the gun" away from the DC March for our Lives in handcuffs and took him away.

He was reportedly actually unarmed, and his intentions were not clear.

HD VIDEO THREAD: Today 31 members of the avowed fascist group "Patriot Front" were arrested, unmasked and charged with conspiracy to riot on their way into Coeur d'Alene, where a Pride in the Park event was taking place.

My full footage of the arrests:
Following the arrests of 31 Patriot Front members, Chief Of Police Lee White and Sheriff Bob Norris held a prompt press conference describing how a "telephone call from a concerned citizen" was what prompted a traffic stop leading to them finding and arresting the men.
In response to questions from me, Chief White described an "Operations plan" found with he group and said additional charges "might be pending."

No firearms recovered, but there was at least one smoke grenade, multiple shields, and hats that had plastic inside them, he said.

Right now in Couer D’Alene: As the local pride event kicks off, one man wearing camo is visible on the edge of the park with a rifle on his back.
A guy just came up to the pride event on the opposite side relative to the guy with the gun, this one with a sign and shirt saying “Know Jesus” beginning to do some kind of street preaching.

Police confronted him and told him he’d be arrested for trespass if he stays or returns.
Police tell another street preacher at the pride event that he has to leave,clarifying that they will enforce “disorderly” laws to remove anyone counter-protesting with noise makers
