A former chairman of the right-wing Proud Boys group was sentenced on Tuesday to 22 years in prison for his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the U.S. Capitol by supporters of Donald Trump trying to overturn the former president's election defeat.
What?
Pretty sure he livestreamed stealing a flag from a historic church and then burning it on their steps… Then he came back to DC and kept announcing where he was on Twitter.
The gun magazine he just had on him, and because he’s a dumbass he said he only had it to sell to someone.
You make it out to be a brilliant police sting, when it was the bare minimum of competence.
And yet he wasn’t arrested then or for that reason, according to the reporting on the day of the arrest. That charge was added after he was booked.
This was specifically cited as the reason he was picked up on 1/4 according to the article that I first read about it from. I doubt he was wearing it visibly strapped to him without a rifle for it, but I guess that could have been the case.
I think it’s more likely a career bootlicker didn’t like their boss and screwed over 1/6, than police having ever done anything worth calling brilliant.
