Jan 6 assault on Capitol

"Stewart Rhodes, the founder and leader of the far-right Oath
Keepers militia group, has been arrested and charged with
seditious conspiracy in the 6 January attack on the US Capitol,
the Department of Justice said on Thursday."
This cheered me up.

I was wondering if such charges were ever going to be made.

Yeah, me too. As much as I don't want to use the term "fall guy"
for the head of a far right group, I do wonder if that is how it
will work out in practice.

I need to see some members of congress on trial...from the House
and Senate, then move on to a shitload of red state officials.
Absolute traitors.

Seems unlikely you will get your wish. The Republican party
censured two of its own members just for taking part in the Jan
6 investigative committee.

I wondered what the 'MTG' leading your post meant, although I
had already assumed it was her before opening the link.
Sometimes I'm given to thinking that the woman is a damn fine
actress employed by SNL to give people someone to laugh at, the
only other option - that she really is that uneducated - just
beggars belief.
I was particularly amused earlier in the week with AOC's reply
to the woman's twitter rantings, if you are going to accuse
someone of lacking in intelligence then you might want to
exchange your covfefe dicshunry for a spellchecker. Single
handily... ordinarily I'd laugh but it is shocking that someone
can get to her age and still not know the correct word.
