Kelly Meggs ~ J6

 Kelly Meggs posted on his Faceboook page:

"Trump said It’s gonna be wild!!!!!!! It’s gonna be wild!!!!!!! He wants us to make it WILD that’s what he’s saying. He called us all to the Capitol and wants us to make it wild!!! Sir Yes Sir!!! Gentlemen we are heading to DC pack your shit!!

---

Why has he not been indicted? Why is he allowed to run for president again? Why did the GOP fail to impeach? He should know about government corruption, he is part of it. 

Imagine if he does not get the GOP nomination ~ will he scream "fraud," and call for his loyal gaga Mawas to revolt again? Or if he gets the bid, and loses the general election ~ again? With Empty Greene and his boy Bannon running the next insurrection, promised to be armed.

WTF is wrong with the GOP! It seems this is what they want. To be on the losing side of their instituted new civil war or "return of 1776?"

Inflation

 Inflation

Did not share an old Facebook "memory" post about inflation.

Girl Scout cookies cost 23 cents per box of 44 cookies in 1960 ~ minimum wage was $1.00

Federal minimum wage is $7.25; the cookies cost $5.00 a box and have 14 cookies. 

Or in 1960 a minimum wage worker would work 1 hour to buy 4 boxes of cookies; today that 1 hour can only buy one box ~ and get a lot less cookies in today's economy.

---

My first tax paying job, I was paid, I think, 75 cents an hour. It was part time, in 1964. When I made that post, I did look up how much the cookies cost in 1960 & would think I did the same for minimum wage. 

Even after I went full time after graduating high school, I do not remember $1.00 an hour. Wish I had saved some paystubs. I worked in retail department store in the office, and earned 10 cents an hour more than the sales floor teens my age. 

2022/2023 complaints about inflation ~ I wonder how much those smaller, less tasty boxes of girl scout cookies cost now.

Matthew Jason Beddingfield

Matthew Jason Beddingfield, age 22 of North Carolina pleaded guilty to assaulting resisting or impeding officers,  30 days after his arrest, a judge ordered him released from jail. Prosecutors said he" had a penchant for matching violent words with violent acts.” At the time he was on 2 years probation for assault with a deadly weapon, for shooting a 17-year-old in the head. 

Now, how can a person who is on probation, be let out of jail after being arrested for more violence?

It is reported that he was on of the first rioters to jump over a barricades, attack officers with flagpole and threw a metal rod at them. Once inside he marched around, joining a skirmish thrusting his flagpole at officer's shield. 

He is known to be anti every non-white, non-Christian, non-heterosexual citizens.

In text messages from his phone, He wished members of those groups a violent end, and also expressed desire to inflict violence or death on them. 

I do hope when he is sentenced the next judge gives him a long jail sentence. He was also arrested for drunk driving after his J6 violence.

Daniel Rodriguez ~ tasered guard

 Daniel Rodriguez, 42 of California pleaded guilty to J6 charges.

"Rodriguez tased Fanone twice in the back of his neck, after the then-D.C. police officer was dragged into the crowd by rioters. Fanone suffered a minor heart attack and a traumatic brain injury in the attack and later resigned from the police force."

Kyle Young and Albuquerque Head also are serving prison time for assaulting Fanone. Thomas Sibick pleaded not guilty and is awaring trial.

Jeffrey McKellop,

 I thought I posted about Jeffrey McKellop, age 57, ex Special Forces Soldier who showed up on J6 wearing a helmet, tactical vest, protective eyewear and a gas mask. Dressed for a peaceful tour of the Capitol Building, eh.

He is accused of "assaulting officers, throwing bottles at police and allegedly picking up a flagpole and striking a police officer in the face, causing a wound. He then reportedly threw the flagpole at the same officer like a spear." 

He has been in jail for two years. His trial will be delayed due to his attorney quitting and needing new council. It says he is from Fisherville, which I assume is in Virginia due to report being from The Staunton Ledger. 

---

The article mentions Marine Vet, Thomas Webster,  who was sentenced to 10 years for attacking an officer with flagpole, tackling and choking him. Wester was also a retired police officer.

Return of 1776

Special Mention
Mitch McConnell, Kevin McCarthy, Mike Pence, & Bill Gates
           we the people are watching you

Rand Paul & Ron DeSantis
  We the people love you

***'
Oh, so that is who they were watching. Bill Gates? What was Kevin McCarthy's position in Congress in 2020? I am not even sure what McConnell's position was at that time. 

No, I am one of the people that do not like anti-liberty DeSantis. I do not recall disliking Rand Paul, but maybe I am mixing him up with some other guy. Ron Paul? 

----
It is true that these anti-Americans found their place in history. Unless, of course, DeSantis manages to whitewash history. Not a Patrick Henry, or Paul Revere among them. 

Demand New Election

Demand new election:
Paper Ballots Only
no electronic voting
no mail-in ballots
no absentee ballots
In person with an ID or NO VOTE
Monitored by National Guard

***
Okay, so mawas thought it their right do demand that no military is allowed to vote by mail, absentee ballots? That disabled people are not allowed to vote? That people in hospitals undergoing treatment not be allowed to vote? That seniors not be allowed to vote?

Are there enough National Guard members to monitor elections in every small rural area, college town, large city with multiple voting districts and even multiple voting places within large districts? 

Talk about logistics! It sounds like a proposal from an elementary school child. Even if there are enough guards people to cover every voting location, would there be enough to relieve them, so that THEY can go cast their ballots? Do they also plan to extend voting hours so that all citizens get to cast their votes?

Or is their proposals a plan to hold unfair elections? Nurses often work 12 shifts ~ will their demand provide for giving them enough time to leave work to get to polling place before it closes?

Paper ballots only? So someone like Tina Peters can shred the ones from non-GOP voters? It seems to me voting by electronics is the safer than paper ballots. As long as people like Peters are caught tampering with hard drives. I, for one, would not trust a voting machine manufactured by Ivanka Trump's  patent. 

I needed to show ID to register to vote to get a voter ID card. Need proof of address in order to assign district. Voting in person, had to show ID a few times, but mostly just sign roster next to my name. 
---
The reason they make those demands is trump told them so and he is great salesman of his propaganda. If these mawas thought about the "Return of 1776" provisions, they might see how absurd it sounds.

Chants

Lead, Second or Hypman lead the following chants
*Free and fair elections
*Liberty or death
*We are watching
*No Trump, No America
*No Justice, No Peace
*We the People
 
***
I did not know we had to pay to vote. Would think they would want to end gerrymandering and redistricting to keep elections fair. 

Ah but they complain about Ashli Babbitt. Many are losing liberty, so will they ask for death in jail? (no they cry, and say "sorry")

We, the people did not want trump, only mawa people did. They would rather have a lying, corrupt, cheating, vulgar president than a United States of America?

What about our rights to a fair election. (I do not know what "free" means.) No djt and you plan to toss out our votes? 

Ah,yes, we know ~ you were watching your man trump to give the signal to "march peacefully to the Capitol to fight like hell." They were watching to see Mike Pence "do the right thing" as expressed by the sore loser. 

"No Justice, No Peace" co-opted from Rodney King riots? 


Patriot Plan Logistics

Patriot Plan Logistics
for release to the public
You are the revolution
Be part of history & fight for this country, so our children don't have to.
It's all or nothing Patriots, boldness and bravery is necessary.

***
Planning to storm government buildings with goal of stopping counting of electoral college votes makes one a patriot, how? 

Were the 1776 people who revolted, patriotic British residents? 

Return of 1776

 Return of 1776 document 

I might have to download the PDF document to read it all. 

It is plans to "Storm the Winter Palace," preparation January 1 to January 5; Jan. 6 Execution Day. There is a list of government buildings and map circling their locations. The document has a form to fill out ~ listing manpower assignments. 

"These are OUR buildings. They are just renting space."

I did not know that presidents and Congress people rent space in their place of business. The White House was not built for the people, it was built for president to live. In addition to it being his (and his family) home, it is where he conducts presidential business. 

Imagine if he lived "downtown" or in nearby Delaware, Maryland; when the country is attacked on a weekend. All departments of Federal government have offices in the White House. 

So some ignorant person decided the Capitol building (and the other 6 or so listed) belong to citizens, the J6 rioters believe they have the right to go inside to stop the counting of electoral college votes? 

Erika Flores ~ 1776 Returns

 Erika Flores, lady friend of  Enrique Tarrio, provided him with a copy of "1776 Returns" written by Samuel Armes. She  pleaded the Fifth when subpoenaed in May.

I did not know that people could plead the Fifth to a subpoena. 

Armes claims he "did some 'war-gaming' about what might happen if a sitting president refused to leave office after the election." That Flores took his rough outline and created the "1776 Returns" document. 

It mentioned the Winter Palace, and a plan to storm government buildings. Ashli Babbitt posted about the "storm coming" so perhaps that is where the idea was generated. I think she is among others who texted, posted, shouted, "the storm is HERE!" 

I have not yet checked link to "1776 Returns" to read the document. Some government office also claimed "this is our 1776." Those people who applauded the J6 riot, refused to impeach DJT, need to be removed from Congress. 

It is odd they are part of the government they want to overthrow. But I guess they would expect high appointments in a trump dictatorship. 

Andrew Alan Hernandez

 Andrew Alan Hernandez, 45, "entered the building via the East Rotunda Door, which was forced open, then milled about with others who had breached the Capitol."

He posted on social media before entering the building:  “They are trying to steal the vote and will perfect and protect their fraudulent voting system when in power.” Hernandez is among 6 other Riverside County, California residents to be charged in J6 insurrection. 

Kevin Strong, 46, ~ 24 months in prison for picketing inside the building. 

Rafael Valadez Jr., 43, same charge, 30 days in prison due o plea bargain.

Derek Kinnison, 41, of Lake Elsinore, Felipe Antonio Martinez, 49, of Lake Elsinore, Ron Mele, 53, of Temecula, and Erik Scott Warner, 47, of Menifee are awaiting sentencing. (as of Jan. 30, 2023)

Bruno Cua ~ shoved guard to ground

 Bruno Cua, 20, is among those who forced themselves into the Capitol building on J6. He also shoved a guard to the ground. So much for peaceful tourist visit, eh.

Many angry MAWA comments on articles that report arrests, or sentences of the rioters. Typical "What about BLM who burned down cities?"

Today, a person upped it to "burned down the whole country." A lot of foul language. One very long post from Michelle, was full of false info, including biased media. I spent much of the summer of 2020 hospitalized and not up on those riots. 

I am sure the news reports at that time mentioned the numbers of people arrested on the same day they rioted. Unlike the J6 rioters who basically went home, to be arrested at later dates. BLM, antifa, other Alt Right riots, the police were well-prepared to deal with the mobs. J6 guards were not; outnumbered by the mob.


Daryl Johnson ~ arrested again

Daryl Johnson, 52 was sentenced to 30 days for participation in J6 attack on government. He and his son, Daniel (who was sentenced to 4 months) were charged with entering the Capitol through a shattered window and at one point allowing more rioters to enter by rushing a group of police officers who were trying to hold a door to the building shut.

Daryl's new charge is "invasion of privacy" by using his cellphone to film a woman in tanning booth. The salon is registered to an entity owned by his father, former St. Ansgar Mayor mayor. The family owns 9 laundromats, a car wash in addition to the salon.

Daryl's reason for going to D.C. on J6 was anger that some of his properties were damaged during George Floyd riots.

Thomas B. Adams ~ no regrets

 Thomas B. Adams has no regrets "I wouldn't change anything I did," it is reported that he told a journalist. He was in the building but did not leave because "no one told him specially to leave the building" on J6. 

 Adams told The State Journal-Register "I didn't do anything. I still to this day, even though I had to admit guilt (in the stipulation), don't feel like I did what the charge is.

"I was never asked to get out until a group of officers came on the Senate floor and told everybody in there it was time to go. We all lined up and walked out."

He was found guilty of obstructing an official proceeding, aiding and abetting others in committing said obstruction. Also guilty of misdemeanor charge of remaining in building. 

If they had not stormed the building, the count would have continued. (obstructing) Congressional business resumed 4 hours later, keeping Congress people (and staff) working until 3AM. He knows he was in the building, on Senate floor, no Congress people there,yet did not do anything?

Kevin Seefried~ Confederate flag

 It is reported that Kevin Seefried, age 53, tearfully apologized, saying he never wanted to send a message of hate to anyone. He carried a Confederate flag to the Stop the Steal rally on J6. He and his son climbed through a broken window. Prosecutors claim Kevin was the 12th person to illegally enter the Capitol building. 

Inside Kevin jabbed at guard with the end of the flagpole, using it as a weapon. He was part of the group that chased guard up stairs. The officer lead the rioters away from chambers where VP Pence and Senators were being evacuated. Goodman testified that Seefried asked where members of Congress were counting the votes and said “You can shoot me, man, but we’re coming in.”

His son, Hunter Seefried, then age 22 was sentenced to two years in prison. 

Seefried claims he did not know that the Confederate flag is considered a symbol of racism. I guess he also did not know that it is an Anti-American symbol, representing southern states that did not want to be part of the U.S. of A. Seems to me his tears are that he is going to jail. Even 22 year old son should know the south lost the civil war.

Brian Scott McGee, Jeremy Ghristian Harrison

 Brian Scott McGee, a former member of the Missouri National Guard was arrested and charged with misdemeanor offenses relating to J6.

He was in the building for under 2 minutes and spoke to Jeremy Christian Harrison.

Harrison from Florida was also arrested on same charges.

"McGee said that he heard people in the crowd saying that U.S. Capitol police officers were allowing people to enter the U. S. Capitol building. He observed four or five U.S. Capitol police officers wearing riot gear gesture for people to enter the U.S. Capitol and fist bumping them as they walked by.”

Video does not support his claim.

McGee said he and a 3rd man met online. Harrison said they met McGee at Crystal City Marriott in Washington. (I believe writer meant Washington DC)

Harrison also thought guards were blocking one area, while directing those who entered the building to go another way. When he heard "chaos" and screaming, like, McGee, he left the building. 

---

3rd man's name was redacted from affidavit. (writer said "charging document)

---

These two guys suddenly realized they had to leave the building. I wonder if they still support the man who sent them there?

Daniel Lyons Scott

 Daniel Lyons Scott, 29. of Bradenton, Florida plead guilty to multiple charges for his part in J6 riot. The Proud Boy member goes by his nickname, Milkshake. He looks like he consumed a lot of them, along with a lot of chicken wings, steaks, burgers, beers. 

"Scott helped lead a charge against law enforcement that ultimately led to the rioters gaining access to the interior of the Capitol building." 

He faces up to 28 years in prison. Of course judges have been giving slap on the wrist lenient sentences. Dangers to the U.S. of A. ~ trump still leading them to do more violence. I would not trust them to be free. 

Jason Farris

 Jason Farris, age 44, of Arlington Texas: 

 *hit the baton of officer holding bike rack

*other rioters grabbed one of the bicycle racks and tried to pull it away

*Farris  shoved an officer in the back with both hands, knocking him to the ground

*the others pulled the bike rack away from guards and carried it into the crowd

---

Why do mawas keep saying it was a) not a riot, b) peaceful protest, c) no violence? 

'Cause Mawas are good #45 parrots, I imagine.

The State of the Union

"Because the soul of this nation is strong, because the backbone of this nation is strong, because the people of this nation are strong, the State of the Union is strong.

As I stand here tonight, I have never been more optimistic about the future of America. We just have to remember who we are.

We are the United States of America and there is nothing, nothing beyond our capacity if we do it together."

Quote is from President Biden's 2023 State of the Union transcript. In my mind, he ended the speech, loudly proclaiming: "the State of the Union is strong," followed by the typical "God Bless America." 

Yesterday I skimmed through a few articles about the SOTU address. I did not find those words; hence searched for the transcript. I started reading the entire thing, but quickly scrolled to the end, to find what I wanted to share. I forced self to watch it all, although I was tempted to change channels several times.

I read a CNN fact check. Basically the stats Biden quoted were true. But CNN noted that they did not accurately prove Joe's claims, as to being responsible for positive outcomes, such as low unemployment rates. 

I do not know that the state of the union is strong. I would say the state of the union is discontent.
