at first I was like, dafuq?

and then, I was like, oh:
"Federal judge Trevor McFadden, a Trump appointee and a former Deputy Assistant Attorney General for the Justice Department, ruled that the student, Christian Secor, should be released. The court ruled that Secor will be subject to GPS monitoring and must surrender access to firearms and his passport, among other conditions. Secor has pleaded not guilty to the charges."

He's a college student. The minute he gets his phone back he will start blasting proclamations to the internet that will help jail him and a dozen others.

That's not the WP hand signal, okay!?!?!?  I've been assured by plenty of MAQA nation that's not what that is.  

It is a suggestion though of glory hole ass play in Cell Block C showers on odd-numbered days that involve salisbury steak in the mess hall.

The "outfit" he was laundering money (and then fucked up while doing it) for is going to have a much easier time "removing" him from office if he's in prison.

Antifa has really gone off the rails!

Quote

After President Donald Trump lost his re-election campaign, he immediately began asking his supporters for money, a plea that he insisted was necessary to bankroll his fight built on the false claim that the election was stolen through rampant fraud.

James Uptmore, like hundreds of other people, opened his wallet. Weeks later, he was among those who stormed the U.S. Capitol, federal prosecutors say.

An NBC News analysis of campaign finance filings found that in the five weeks after the election, those charged in the Capitol riot increased their political donations by about 75 percent compared to the five weeks leading up to the election. Many had made very few or no donations at all in previous years, but they began escalating their numbers of contributions as Trump was trying to overturn Joe Biden's victory.

Trump and his aligned groups, including the Republican National Committee, raised $207.5 million in the 19 days after the election.


Uptmore, 63, of San Antonio, made just a single $250 donation to a Trump PAC between Trump's first run for president and the 2020 election, according to the Federal Election Commission. That all changed in the weeks after the Nov. 3 election.

On Nov. 15, the day Trump wrote on Twitter that he would not concede, Uptmore made five contributions to the president and his aligned groups. Three days later, when Trump tweeted, "I WON THE ELECTION. VOTER FRAUD ALL OVER THE COUNTRY," Uptmore made four more donations.

The next day, Uptmore made four more donations as Trump's attorneys held a news conference spreading wild conspiracies about the vote. And on Dec. 18 — when Trump tweeted at Republican senators to "FIGHT FOR IT. Don't let them take it away!" — Uptmore made six such contributions.

In total, Uptmore would make nearly 40 donations to Trump, the RNC and aligned groups after Trump's loss. And on Jan. 6, federal prosecutors allege, he and his son, Chance, were among the crowd that illegally breached the Capitol.


New details in Capitol riots likely support sedition charges, prosecutor says
MARCH 22, 202102:18
"I think, quite simply, it shows the effectiveness of Trump's messaging in the weeks leading up to the election and then how much his stolen election lie resonated with his base after the election," said Kurt Braddock, an assistant professor of public communication at American University and a fellow at its Polarization and Extremism Research and Innovation Lab. "Trump sold the idea to his followers that not only was the election stolen, but also that it was up to his constituents to help make things 'right.'"

John Horgan, who runs the Violent Extremism Research Group at Georgia State University, said he found the increase in contributions to be "unsurprising," partly because Trump had primed supporters for months.

"Trump successfully convinced many of his followers that unless they acted, and acted fast, their very way of life was about to come to an end," Horgan said. "He presented a catastrophic scenario whereby if the election was — for him — lost, his followers would suffer as a result. He made action not just imperative, but urgent, convincing his followers that they needed to do everything they could now, rather than later, to prevent the 'enemy' from claiming victory."

'Passion for Trump'
Among the first 311 people who face federal charges after the Jan. 6 riot, about 90 have histories of making political contributions. And the overwhelming majority of them were made to Trump or his aligned groups and within the past year.

The donations shed light on the political activities and leanings of the people accused in the riot — and on the effectiveness of Trump's post-election messaging, which has netted him hundreds of millions of dollars in contributions, many from small-dollar donors like those accused of storming the Capitol.

Elizabeth Neumann, who was assistant secretary of homeland security for counterterrorism and threat prevention before she left the Trump administration and endorsed Biden, said the donor findings reveal "a useful proof point to the argument that there were monetary drivers behind the Big Lie."

"It's also a useful quantitative metric for demonstrating the increased level of grievance of Trump supporters post-election," she said.

Neumann said she believes a donor's history could be useful to the Justice Department should it seek to make "a seditious conspiracy or incitement-to-violence case."

"It shows a direct tie between the lies that the election was stolen and people's deepening passion for Trump — they were seeing the money roll in and knew that the messaging was working," she said.

Some of those charged in connection with the riot made their first political contributions after the election, donating to Trump, the RNC or groups like the Trump Make America Great Again Committee. Several more made their first donations to political causes and candidates during the 2020 campaign cycle.

"I think the thing that's clear is that the people who took over the Capitol are not interested in the political process," Eric Wilson, a Republican political technologist, said in an interview, pointing to analysis that showed that some people accused in the riot did not vote in the election. "They donated to campaigns after the votes had already been cast," revealing that "they are only interested in the chaos, not the process," he said.

More than 50 politicians, political action committees and other groups and causes received donations from those charged in the riot. They include Republicans like former Sens. David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler of Georgia; House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy of California; Sens. Steve Daines of Montana, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Susan Collins of Maine; Reps. Burgess Owens of Utah and Elise Stefanik of New York; failed candidates like Kim Klacik, a House candidate in Maryland, Joe Collins, a House candidate in California, and Kris Kobach, a Senate candidate in Kansas; the National Republican Senatorial Committee; and the National Republican Congressional Committee.

'Cash cow'
The bulk of the donations went to Trump and his aligned groups — about 75 percent of the more than 900 such donations funneled there.

"Part of this, there's this very cynical view that this was just a total cash cow for people to fundraise off of vulnerable folks," Thomas Zeitzoff, an associate professor of political science at American University who studies political violence, said in an interview.

Yet a number of Republicans have claimed that the riot was not the product of a pro-Trump mob. They say it was driven by left-wing groups trying to damage Trump — which a majority of Trump voters believe, according to a Suffolk University/USA Today poll last month.

Some Democrats also got donations from people alleged to have been rioters, including a handful of years-old contributions to former President Barack Obama and Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and more recent contributions to Democratic presidential candidates Andrew Yang and Tulsi Gabbard, who had followings on the political right.

A man charged in the riot, Brian McCreary, who was photographed inside the Capitol alongside the "QAnon Shaman," Jacob Chansley, made 34 donations to Yang from 2018 through 2020.

Wilson, the Republican digital strategist, chalked up the riot to people who were gullible.

"I don't know that there's a bigger story to tell other than there are a lot of dumb people in the world," he said. "And a lot of them stormed the Capitol on January 6th."

What a great precedent this almost started.  For just $250, made payable in 5 easy installments of $79.95/each...you too can receive a presidential pardon and avoid prosecution for insurrectionist treason...a crime that can carry a sentence of execution.  Call now, operators are standing by!"

That WP hand sign looks like the Shocker, but with a back of the ball-sack flick there in the middle. The anatomy doesn't make sense, but I've got a penis, unlike this guy, so I don't know...maybe?

I’m no profiler but that looks like a woman to me.

 

Exactly what I said when I saw it the first time.  That's a female.

Those donor lists need to be made public--exactly how much every politician got from every person arrested in the Capitol Insurrection.

 

 

 

 

FEC-cleared donations to specific general election  candidates for federal office (Senate, POTUS, House) are easy to find...including primaries.  PAC donations are getting more and more obfuscated, understandably.  Plus who people voted for in a primary in most states is open record.  These dipshits will claim they only voted for Trump in their state's GOP primary as some sort of "Operation Chaos" 3-D Chess long-game to defeat the Democrats.  But shit, I know plenty of people (some on this site) who claim they don't support Trump and there's their primary ballot cast for him and a few donations to his re-election campaign.  If you don't like him, you gotta funny way of showing it.  You don't have to check a box for pOTUS on a primary ballot, you can just vote for your Republican friend for local court of appeals Justice.  if you don't like Biden, you don't have to give your money to Trump...you can just wait until Biden comes to seize it in the name of socialism and save a trip to the dirty post office.

The guy's twitter cadence/syntax is exactly like Trump's.  Guy wastes 30 characters on mentioning the venue where he's meeting his attorney.  Weird humblebrag.  You know where I meet my attorneys?  Their fucking office. Actually now that I type that, I usually meet them at bars.  Dammit, I have the worst fucking attorneys.  /tambor

Somehow, because there is little justice in the universe and 'Murica, this woman will end up on TLC with either her own show or in one of those locked in a house with three other BSC people scenarios. Because we are living in a country that hasn't got a clue.

Man, I can't.  No amount of snark or telling her the truth is going to get her to believe anything.  She is fucking delusional and crazy.  

Her and the NYC Racist Magat are just fucking pieces of work.  How do people get so twisted?

I mean, I know I am not really that nice of a person.  I am a self confessed selfish asshole, but holy shit at these people.

She is also getting 'woke' to use the parlance of the day. Complaining about the conservative males having a ceiling in place. Well, duh, Jenna, that is the whole point. Women are trophies and how can you not be in suburban Texas and realize that? Penelope is right; this woman is delusional.

She's also a little vulnerable right now if someone was to turn her head that the best way to get back at the conservative media is to turn on the GOP. Everytime they try and distance themselves from her, she could pull them a little closer by name dropping people whose schtick she bought. Just because they scrubbed their political social media doesn't mean she can't remind them that she followed their 'stop the steal' tweets. Right Ted? Right Pete? Right Dan?
