M.O.S.D. Going TO J.A.I.L.
The tip of the spear in the January 6th riot is through. Stewart Rhodes went to court this morning unsuccessfully looking for a delay to his trial, and the leader of the Proud Boys action wing on the 6th, the Ministry of Self Defense, admitted to conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding and assaulting an officer of the law. He’s looking at seven years, and has pledged to assist the DOJ in other cases.
I hope all you Garland detractors are paying attention. I know most of you are still going to fold your arms, shake your heads and say it is not enough. Well, what can I say? Just chill. You won’t know what’s happening until it happens, and that is a good thing. There’s plenty of people out there watching these cases and interpreting them for you, like Allison Gill (@allisongill), Marcy Wheeler, and Scott McFarlane (@MacFarlaneNews). Be happy about that. You don’t have to be a mushroom. Don’t choose that.
Two things remain possible-that these militias acted of their own volition, or someone hired them to start the insurrection. How about we see who they roll on before we go assuming that Merrick Garland hasn’t got a a handle on things? For me, I seriously doubt they acted on their own. I have come to believe that the insurrection was the last gasp to disrupt and derail the peaceful transfer of power. Once it became clear that Pence was doing his job and the objections were being handled quickly in joint sessions, there was only one play left. Thugs overrunning the seat of government. But we need many threads to be exposed before we reach a conclusion like that. And I believe that with every cooperating convict, we will see those threads. This whole J6 thing could be as insidious as the imagination allows.
