    Lower charges that can 100% be proven (like trespassing or whatever) mean an arrest and court supervision. Felonies require grand juries and some places have restrictions due to Covid. As I understand it, it's entirely possible but not necessarily a given that more serious charges will occur for those who got to the floor of the House and Senate, specifically, and potentially for any other serious example (like the guy live streaming on YouTube what amounts to an attempt to assassinate a member of Congress from Pelosi's office).

    Won't necessarily happen and definitely not in all cases, but some of these guys aren't going to only face lower charges. It's a stopgap.

    Only question here I'm concerned with is jet's claims of charges of sedition, which have not happened yet. It will be difficult to get evidence.

    18 U.S. Code § 2384:

    If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.


    (June 25, 1948, ch. 645, 62 Stat. 808; July 24, 1956, ch. 678, § 1, 70 Stat. 623; Pub. L. 103–322, title XXXIII, § 330016(1)(N), Sept. 13, 1994, 108 Stat. 2148.)

    Probably not that hard. More and more footage is coming out from different sources, as is evidence of prior planning on different platforms. Imagine how much more law enforcement has that will not be released to the media.

    There is also 18 U.S. Code §315, attempting to assault, kidnap or assassinate a member of congress, which as I mentioned, was live-streamed by at least one individual who was proudly declaring his attempt to hunt down and hang Nancy Pelosi from inside her office. The guys with the zip ties are an example where it's going to be hard to prove anything, but the one bragging about it on Youtube and interacting with commenters who are basically cheering him on? Pretty clear.

    Then there are violations of 18 U.S. Code §2101 since many of these individuals traveled with the intent of committing a crime/engaging in a riot. Probably won't be applied based on precedent, but relevant. Then there are the many weapons charges, the investigation into the pipe bombs, and potentially more serious charges related to assault on law enforcement that is likely still to come. Then we have 40 U.S. Code §5104 about not using force to enter or remain on the floor of the Senate and/or House (or have weapons). This one is very clear.

    All of this, and more, is why I think it's likely more probable that they are waiting to charge individuals with the more serious crimes as opposed to opting not to or lacking evidence. There is literally footage filmed by the people now in custody of them doing what they were doing and saying they were doing it while doing it.

    Do you know how it's easy to make fun of the kids who record themselves committing crimes and post it on the internet? Yeah, apparently they inherited that wisdom.

    If the investigation is legit, you will see lots of antifa/blm types charged. Your team.

    Basically, that is a tactic they use whenever they want to say "I don't agree with the charges".
    “Conscientiously believing that the proper condition of the negro is slavery, or a complete subjection to the white man, and entertaining the belief that the day is not distant when the old Union will be restored with slavery nationally declared to be the proper condition of all of African descent, and in view of the future harmony and progress of all the States of America, I have been induced to issue this address, so that there may be no misunderstanding in the future”

    Of course they all care, they are just trying to obfuscate and distract because their tribe are the ones over the fire.

    I know the law.

    What they did in the Capitol Building was recorded. That's easy.

    The difficulty will be proving conspiracy.


    Weapons charges, what, 3 or 4. The pipe bombs were elsewhere and unrelated. Assault on officer, that should stick. Again, my only concern here is jet's claim sedition charges have already been filed. They haven't.

    No, my criticism is jet claims they have been charged with sedition when they have not.
