"The defendant was in that hallway for approximately 10 minutes at times using his bullhorn to repeatedly yellthings such as "Who's house?" while the crowd responded "our house"; "F*** McConnell" while the crowd repeated it back; and "it's about time Mr. McConnell..."
"...realizes he works for us. The police work for us."

It seems they are either running very late, they have postponed, or they're not turning the microphone on today.

A call for aid, #SeditionHunters.

The crowdsourced effort to arrest assorted MAGA chuds who attacked the Captol in an effort to prevent the peaceful transfer of power in the United States has yielded results. I salute your work.
You have watched thousands of hours of video, looking for small details, identifying insiders and AFO suspects. Your work has been affirmed in federal court at the DCD, and has formed the entire evidentiary basis for many cases. I salute you.
My own skillset is a bit different. From the spring of 2021, I have focused on documents, rather than video evidence. From various soical media posts, from my second podcast episode on Shane Jenkins, through the Matthews Memo, through to the material in the Oath Keepers...

Developing a spreadsheet of all testimony before the January sixth Committee, sorting by date because I am interested in when the Committee began to ask specific questions about if or if they were contacted by Alex Cannon or any other Trump attorney.
Noticed that Doug Mastriano was only interviewed by the Committee on August 9, 2022.

That is extremely late. I started investigating this soon after the attack, and Mastriano was already established as an important figure by the very first sedition hunters.
Mastriano gave an excuse that, to use a technical term, is complete and utter bullshit.

He belongs in jail.

Apparently Mike Pence thinks being president of the Senate means that he's part of the legislative branch, and therefore untouchable, thanks to the speech and debate clause.

This is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard.

nbcnews.com/politics/justi…
In point of fact, in our modern system, the president plays a bigger legislative role than the vice president.

Pence is up against every org chart of the executive branch ever produced. The vice president is part of the executive branch. Image
It's true that Article I assigns the role of the president of the Senate, but the vice presidency is created in Article II. It's an executive branch position, period, and the claim his legislative role confers immunity to subpoenas is an innovation without basis. So conservative!

As you read the transcripts, you'll find investigators regularly asking Trump White House and campaign insiders what their current employment situation is.

This probably covers at least half of them. And the DOJ already knows where to look.
Outfits like Elections LLC. Do they have other clients?

Sure. But these are often things like the Herschel Walker campaign, so it's a distinction without a difference. The money is coming from the same place.

Or firms such as 2M Document Management, who received 4.6 million, supposedly to conduct privilege reviews.

Given Clarke's responses to the investigators, I very much doubt the books hold up.

Status conference in the case of Riley June Williams in the courtroom of Judge Amy Jackson.
#GreenShirtStairmaster
Convicted on November 21, 2022 of obstruction of law enforcement during civil disorder and AFO.

There's an interesting exchange in the transcript of Garrett Ziegler, the aide to Peter Navarro who opened the doors to the White House to allow "team crazy" into the White House residence.
Page 14:
Do you know someone named Riley?
I invoke my right to silence under the Fifth Amendment.

Oh, hey, look, law enforcement didn't just use the Proud Boys as a source for information on the activities of the left, they were also feeding information to the Proud Boys for January 6th.

A lot of agencies have a lot to hide, it's not just one rogue lieutenant. Image
h/t to Roger Parloff, @rparloff from Lawfare, who my followers probably already follow.

The government has been adamant that informants in the Proud Boys didn't tip them off about January sixth, the defense has been adamant they were provocateurs.
The theory that best fits with the data, however, is that law enforcement was using these relationships to get "intel" on leftist activists. If that's the case, it's not something unique to DC on January sixth.
