If you were wondering how "J6 Praying Grandma" Rebecca Lavrenz entered the Capitol on Jan. 6, here's the east rotunda door she came through.
The person filming this video entered the Capitol roughly 2.5 minutes before Lavrenz, who was convicted of misdemeanor offenses.
Court evidence from U.S. v. Rhodes et al.:
The person who filmed this video showing the same scene also came through the doors roughly 2.5 mins before Lavrenz:
You’ll be shocked to learn this isn’t true, and that, in fact, the government has yet to make a sentencing recommendation in Rebecca Lavrenz’s case, given that she was just convicted of misdemeanor offenses and sentencing is still months down the line.

FBI sting nets an 18-year-old from Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, the feds say swore allegiance to ISIS. Previously, a white supremacist, apparently!
The suspect told a FBI confidential human source they worried the media would call him "a mentally ill psycho who did this out of desperation and delusion and not as an act of religiously motivated terrorism."
@RobertKennedyJr @aseitzwald Numerous Donald Trump supporters, in fact, are sitting in federal prison right now because they brought guns to the Capitol on Jan. 6! nbcnews.com/politics/2024-…
"Clearly, Gietzen is bright and able to get something done when he puts his mind to it – be it a college degree or assaulting officers as part of in a violent mob."
A disciplinary counsel fighting to disbar Jeffrey Clark argued that he couldn’t possibly have believed the ridiculous smart thermostat related lies he was peddling about the 2020 election. nbcnews.com/politics/justi…
“A rational person, faced with overwhelming evidence to the contrary, who still insists that the moon rises in the west, yes, that person is being intentionally dishonest.” nbcnews.com/politics/justi…
The way I’d explain this in a bar: the disciplinary counsel argued in so many words there’s no way Jeffrey Clark is that dumb, and his lawyers tried to muddy the waters and make 2020 election conspiracy theories appear slightly less clownish. nbcnews.com/politics/justi…
Donald Trump keeps calling Jan. 6 defendants "hostages." He did so again last night.
But an @NBCNews review of J6 cases identified just 15 current pretrial detainees ordered held by a judge.
Among them are defendants who (allegedly):
- set off an explosive device
- fired a gun
- plotted to murder FBI employees
- showed up at Obama's house with a van full of ammo after Trump posted his address
Two of the pre-trial detainees have body counts. One stabbed a 19-year-old to death in a park, he claimed self-defense and wasn't charged in that case but has an extensive criminal record.
There's the trio of former Jan. 6 fugitives who were captured earlier this year at a ranch in Florida. All are credibly accused of assaulting police on Jan. 6.
There's the former New Jersey National Guard police sergeant who set off a 48 hour FBI manhunt after he fled special agents who showed up to arrest him.
NEW: A Washington man who led an attack on officers on Jan. 6 and represented himself at trial using arguments a federal judge described as "bulls---" and "gobbledygook" was sentenced to seven years in federal prison on Wednesday.
