+1 I can’t believe these horrible people have been allowed to skate as much as they have. George Floyd was murdered for allegedly passing a counterfeit twenty. These people tried to overthrow the government - many of them in or adjacent to positions of power - and they’re just out there, planning the next coup and how to install the fascist dictatorship. |
This afternnon in Texas a Federal Magistrate ordered that Elmer Stewart Rhodes remain in custody as he poses a threat to the public and it is doubtful he will abide by conditions of release. Lots of nuggets in the testimony. In the weeks leading up to the insurrection, he spent $40k on weapons. He has not seen his six children or wife since 2018. No word on whether he pays any child supposrt. He lives in a rented apartment with RWNJ attorney Kelly SoRelle and has few personal possessions. His estranged wife testified on page 10.

“A Jan. 6 rioter who stormed the Capitol while he was out on bail on an attempted first-degree murder charge was arrested by the FBI on Tuesday, more than 10 months after he was first identified by online sleuths. Matthew Jason Beddingfield, of North Carolina, faces felony charges of assaulting officers, impeding officers during a civil disorder and carrying a deadly or dangerous weapon on restricted Capitol grounds, as well as several misdemeanors, according to court records.” https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/justice-department/fbi-arrests-trump-fan-stormed-capitol-bail-attempted-murder-rcna15169 |
