DC Capital Riots Fallout

[EagerBeaver]

Aaron Mostofsky Arrested:

The FBI said Tuesday that agents in New York City arrested Aaron Mostofsky, the son of a Brooklyn Supreme Court judge, in connection with last week's siege on the U.S. Capitol. Mostofsky was seen in photos and on video inside the Capitol dressed in fur pelts and what appeared to be a bulletproof vest. He was also carrying a Capitol Police shield.

In an interview with a New York Post reporter during the riot, Mostofsky said he believed “the election was stolen” and that “we were cheated.”

“I don’t think 75 million people voted for Trump — I think it was 85 million,” he said, adding that he had found the police shield on the floor.

Capital Police Have Suspect In Murder of Brian Sicknick:

Capitol riot: Police release photos of man wanted in connection with killing of officer

Officer Brian Sicknick killed during violence from president’s supporters

Police have released photos of a man wanted in connection with the killing of a US Capitol police officer during the Trump riot.

Republican Senator Bill Cassidy tweeted photos shared by US Capitol Police of an older white male with a beard wearing a blue knitted hat with “CFD” on the front.

Officer Brian Sicknick was killed when supporters of the outgoing president stormed the US Capitol to try and prevent the certification of Joe Biden’s electoral win.

"US Capitol Police just shared this picture with me. This man is wanted for questioning in connection with the murder of fallen Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick," Mr Cassidy tweeted.


Mr Sicknick, 42, was reportedly hit in the head with a fire extinguisher during the ugly scenes.

The 12-year force veteran collapsed after returning to his division office and was rushed to hospital, where he died from his injuries.

“Brian is a hero and that is what we would like people to remember,” his brother, Ken Sicknick, said in a statement.

He is just the sixth US Capitol police officer to die in the line of duty.

U.S. Capitol Police just shared this picture with me. This man is wanted for questioning in connection with the murder of fallen Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick.

If you recognize this man, please call FBI at 1-800-225-5324 or visit https://t.co/rl0XXPPml6 pic.twitter.com/i9BDi2wBK4

"Officer Sicknick was killed while doing his job—defending those trapped in the Capitol building amid a violent attack on our democracy," said Virginia Governor Ralph Northam after the killing.

"His death is a tragedy, and those responsible must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

“My prayers and those of the entire Commonwealth go to his family, his loved ones, and his fellow officers who work every day to protect the seat of American democracy from those who would seek to destroy it.”

Good news, apparently Mitch McConnel might be ready to get rid of Trump by voting for condemning at the Impeachment trial.
He should be able to convince enough Republican senators to vote with him.
He would want the party to get rid of Trumpism.

The 25th Amendment is of zero risk to me, but will come back to haunt the Biden administration.

The guy who sat in the VP's chair is reportedly named Colt and has been quoted as saying "I beg for forgiveness."

Just another big brave Trump supporter...like the famous "QAnonShaman" who dresses in a horned fur hat and, like his beloved idol Donnie-boy, just LOVES to put on face paint. Well, this "patriot" (translation: conspiracy theorist and rightwing - ahem - believer) is a 33-year-old guy who lives with Mommy. He's lucky he does because Mommy was able to advise a judge that her poor little boy requires a special organic diet while he's in jail. Such a touching story of motherly love for this big brave Trump-lover.

Oh and by the way, the reference above to VP means vice-president. You know - Mike Pence, the guy that a lot of the traitors were screaming that they wanted to hang. Maybe those treasonous Trump supporters were also just scared little mama's boys with finicky appetites who will also "beg for forgiveness"?

And...let's all hope that whoever MURDERED the police officer is caught...but if so...let's hope that he also lives with his mother so that she too can see that her precious little boy gets nice meals in jail.

Maybe it's no surprise that these rightwing nutjobs, traitors and criminals are also pussies. Stupid, ignorant people often are.

^ This is just crumbs to them, to use Nancy's word. For their treatment of Parler, Bezos and company must be charged with racketeering and put away for a long time.

So Bezos belongs in prison, but no mention of any kind of punishment for Trump?

The reason Bezos is the richest man in the world and his ex wife is the richest woman in the world is that Amazon has taken customer service to another level. I used to believe that LL Bean had the best customer service model or any company until the other day. Amazon delivered some coffee to my elderly father, took a photo of the package where they had delivered it on the front stoop, and then emailed Dad the digital image.

What other company does this? You wonder why Bezos is so rich, this is why.

Did Trump also have a hand in the destruction of Parler? I am not aware of that, but if so, he absolutely must be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law. I don't claim to be a lawyer but to the best of my knowledge, a federal racketeering conviction carries a sentence of up to $250,000 in fines and/or up to twenty (20) years in Federal Prison.

 

[anon_vlad]

An disingenuous response worthy of a Trump supporter. Space doesn't permit an exhaustive listing of all Trump's crimes here, but the articles of his latest impeachment include a few.

However, I completely agree that he only indirectly and certainly inadvertently contributed to the demise of Parler.

Deutsche Bank will not do business in the future with U.S. President Donald Trump or his companies in the wake of his supporters' assault on the U.S. Capitol, the New York Times reported.

Deutsche Bank is Trump's biggest lender, with about $340 million in loans outstanding to the Trump Organization, the president's umbrella group that is currently overseen by his two sons, according to Trump's disclosures with the U.S. Office of Government Ethics dated July 31 last year, plus banking sources.

Another good news.

I'm pleased that you have elevated this discussion in using a latin phrase. (even if you don't appear to know its meaning). Are you a graduate of Trump University or were you not able to continue your education as you donated all your money to the Trump "charity"?

You want Bezos to be put into prison "for a long time", yet you seem blind to your hero's crimes. Surely, punishment should have some relationship to the gravity of the crimes committed. Do you now understand how my comment is relevant to yours?

I have obtained the full unedited video of the attack on the Capital which includes raw and unedited footage of the shooting of Ashley Babbitt. What is odd to me is that you can see a gun being pointed towards the door for at least 30 seconds before the kill shot. All the attackers saw gun and called out "gun", but nobody backed off. It looked like the Capitol cop who fired the shot that killed Babbitt had made up his mind he was going to shoot the first person that came through that door. I had not seen this video before but I did see another video that showed the Capitol Police officer shooting and he looked full on in panic mode. Anyway go to the 1 hour 10 minute mark of the video which starts the prelude to the sequence resulting in Babbitt's shooting. Needless to say viewer discretion advised as a woman is shown being shot and killed (Babbitt looks like she is climbing something at the 1:12 mark and then is propelled backward by the shot and it looked like a fatal shot from the time she went down):

I have obviously elevated it too high, mea culpa. The rest of nonsense is not worth my time.

Trump just issued a savage message to Biden during a press conference, saying that he is not worried about the 25th amendment, but that Biden should be! WATCH Trump break his silence to SLAM Big Tech and respond to the protesters who stormed the Capitol.

Hey Republicans shut his mouth, this orange man is more than dangerous, he's going to hurt America so much.
