This memorial honors the brave men and women who broke into the United States Capitol on January 6th, 2021 to loot, urinate, and defecate throughout those hallowed halls in order to overturn an election. President Trump celebrates these heroes of January 6th as "unbelievable patriots" and "warriors." This monument stands as a testament to their daring sacrifice and lasting legacy.

Obstruction of an Official Proceeding

13 A. Obstruction of an Official Proceeding 14 The evidence detailed above provides, at minimum, a good-faith basis for 15 concluding that President Trump has violated section 18 U.S.C. § 1512(c)(2). The elements of the offense under 1512(c)(2) are: (1) the defendant obstructed, influenced or 16 17 impeded, or attempted to obstruct, influence or impede, (2) an official proceeding of the 18 United States, and (3) that the defendant did so corruptly. Id. (emphasis added). To date, 19 six judges from the United States District Court for the District of Columbia have 20 addressed the applicability of section 1512(c) to defendants criminally charged in 21 connection with the January 6th attack on the Capitol. Each has concluded that 22 Congress's proceeding to count the electoral votes on January 6th was an "official 23 proceeding" for purposes of this section, and each has refused to dismiss charges against 24 defendants under that section.75

Joshua James pleads guilty to sedition

A member of the far-right Oath Keepers extremist group has become the first to admit to engaging in seditious conspiracy to keep President Biden from taking office on Jan. 6, 2021. Joshua James, 34, of Arab, Ala., pleaded guilty in federal court in Washington on Wednesday to helping lead a group that prosecutors say sent two tactically equipped teams into the Capitol and organized a cache of weapons in a hotel just outside the city. He also pleaded to one count of obstructing an official proceeding, and he may face the stiffest sentence of any Jan. 6 defendant so far, according to preliminary sentencing guidelines.

Judge says Trump could be culpable for January 6

CAN politics (CNN) – Civil lawsuits seeking to hold Donald Trump accountable for the January 6, 2021, insurrection can move forward in court, a federal judge said Friday in a ruling outlining how the former President could conceivably be responsible for inciting the attack on the US Capitol. Trump's statements to his supporters before the riot "is the essence of civil conspiracy," Judge Amit Mehta wrote in a 112-page opinion, because Trump spoke about himself and rallygoers working "towards a common goal" of fighting and walking down Pennsylvania Avenue. "The President's January 6 Rally Speech can reasonably be viewed as a call for collective action," Mehta said.

Didn't read that carefully

WASHINGTON – A Beverly Hills cosmetologist who stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, in support of the man she calls "Trumpy Bear," recently told fellow supporters that she only pleaded guilty "to stay out of jail," that she didn't read the plea deal she signed, and that she doesn't think Capitol defendants will get locked away for a long time because former President Donald Trump is "coming back."

Judge Amy Berman Jackson in her sentencing today of disabled Marine vet Mark Leffingwell

"The heated rhetoric that got you riled up and brought you to Washington D.C. has not subsided. Disinformation is not only available, it's getting louder and louder every day. You weren't the only person to fall for it or to embrace it, and some have embraced it who don't even believe it. The lie that the election was stolen and illegitimate is still being perpetrated. Indeed, it is being amplified, not only on social media, but on mainstream news outlets, and worse, it's become heresy for a member of the former President's party to say otherwise. So, it needs to be crystal clear that it is not patriotism. It is not standing up for America. It is not 'legitimate political discourse,' and it is not justified to descend on the nation's Capitol at the direction of a disappointed candidate and disrupt the electoral process. Cancelling out the votes of other people with a show force is the opposite of what America stands for. It was the definition of tyranny, of an authoritarianism -- attacking the law enforcement officers trying to preserve order and our seat of government, trying to protect the public servants in the building isn't patriotism either. It's not with the military trained you to do and it's contrary the whole notion of supposedly caring about 'Blue Lives.' You don't care about them when they're standing in your way instead of in somebody else's."

Matthew Ryan Miller pleads guilty

Maryland Man Pleads Guilty to Felony Charges For Offenses Committed During Jan. 6 Capitol Breach Defendant Threw Objects, Sprayed Fire Extinguisher, Joined Crowd Pushing Against Law Enforcement WASHINGTON - A Maryland man pleaded guilty today to felony charges related to the breach of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, which disrupted a joint session of the U.S. Congress that was in the process of ascertaining and counting the electoral votes related to the presidential election. Matthew Ryan Miller, 23, of Cooksville, Maryland, pleaded guilty in the District of Columbia to obstruction of an official proceeding and assaulting, resisting, or impeding officers. According to court documents, as a mob gathered on the West side of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, Miller threw an unidentifiable object at the Capitol building. At the time, he was draped in a Confederate flag. Miller then used a section of temporary barriers as a ladder to scale the walls of the west side of the plaza. He also assisted other rioters in scaling the walls and other architectural obstacles. Miller and others then moved to the Lower West Terrace and close to the tunnel area leading into the building. Miller waved his hand, and said multiple times, "Come on," as the mob chanted "Heave! Ho!" and rocked back and forth in pushing towards the tunnel entrance that law enforcement officers were attempting to secure. Multiple times, he put up his fingers and yelled, "one, two, three, push!" From this position, he also threw a few unidentifiable objects towards the Lower West Terrace tunnel. Then, at about 4:55 p.m., and at his closest position to the tunnel, Miller used a fire extinguisher to spray directly into the tunnel where law enforcement was stationed. Miller was arrested on Jan. 25, 2021, in Cooksville, Maryland. He is to be sentenced on May 23, 2022. He faces up to 20 years in prison for obstruction of an official proceeding and up to eight years in prison for assaulting law enforcement. Both charges also carry potential fines. A federal district court judge will determine any sentence after considering the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors. The case is being prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia and the Department of Justice National Security Division's Counterterrorism Section. Valuable assistance was provided by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Maryland. The case is being investigated by the FBI's Baltimore and Washington Field Offices. Valuable assistance was provided by the U.S. Capitol Police and the Metropolitan Police Department. In the one year since Jan. 6, more than 725 individuals have been arrested in nearly all 50 states for crimes related to the breach of the U.S. Capitol, including over 225 individuals charged with assaulting or impeding law enforcement. The investigation remains ongoing. More than 165 individuals have pleaded guilty to federal charges, including 22 to felony offenses.

Matthew Beddingfield arrested

The Identification of Matthew Jason Beddingfield and His Participation in the Capitol Breach On January 6, 2021, while the attack on the Capitol was unfolding, an unprecedented number of posts, pictures, videos, livestreams, and other self-produced cellphone content was being publicly shared across social media across the internet, often by the perpetrators of the attack on the Capitol. Previously unaffiliated private citizens began identifying individuals and groups that attacked law enforcement and breached the Capitol and reporting those leads to the FBI. One such lead identified the defendant in this case, Matthew Jason Beddingfield, a twenty-one-year- old male and a resident of Middlesex, Johnston County, North Carolina. On January 26, 2021, the Metropolitan Police Department released a PDF containing roughly 175 slides of "Persons of Interest in Unrest-Related Offenses." ' The following image is taken from Slide # 175.

The House Select Committee investigating Jan 6 has issued a subpoena for former White House advisor Peter Navarro.

"Mr. Navarro appears to have information directly relevant to the Select Committee's investigation into the causes of the January 6th attack on the Capitol. He hasn't been shy about his role in efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election and has even discussed the former President's support for those plans. More than 500 witnesses have provided information in our investigation, and we expect Mr. Navarro to do so as well," said Chairman Thompson.

DOJ asking for 21 months for Antionne "Bugzie the Don" Brodnax

Background of the Defendant The defendant, age 39, is from the Richmond, Virginia area and is a part-time rap-music artist and also runs an apparel company. The government would not be seeking a twenty-one month prison sentence in this case absent the defendant's substantial criminal history, resulting 3 Case 1:21-cr-00350-PLF Document 41 Filed 02/07/22 Page 4 of 41 in a Criminal History Category IV. His first felony conviction resulted from an arrest for possession of a controlled substance in 2000 and his probation was revoked twice thereafter. Draft Presentence Report at 1 44. He has felony criminal convictions in Virginia state court for possession of a controlled substance (5/30/2001), robbery (9/20/2001),' and manufacturing a controlled substance and providing for the resale of drugs (two counts, 4/18/2017). Id. at ¶¶ 44, 45, and 48. He also has a prior felony conviction from the U.S. District Court in Greenbelt, Md., for possession of a firearm after having been convicted of a felony offense (4/13/2006). Id. at 1 46. And he has a Virginia state court misdemeanor conviction for unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia (12/6/2007). Id. at ¶47. Significantly, only three of the defendant's six adult convictions resulted in criminal history points, meaning that his criminal history category of IV arguably understates the severity of his criminal history. Id. at 1¶ 44-52. In addition, in 2009 he was sentenced to 24 months' incarceration for a violation of the conditions of supervised release involving two separate incidents involving police contact, an alleged shooting and vehicle stop, and his unexplained possession of $2000 in cash while inside a vehicle containing half a kilogram of cocaine, a firearm, and another $10,000 in cash. Id. at 1 46.

Stephen Bannon Filing

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA UNITED STATES OF AMERICA CRIMINAL NO. 21-cr-670 STEPHEN K. BANNON, Defendant. UNITED STATES' MOTION IN LIMINE TO EXCLUDE EVIDENCE OR ARGUMENT RELATING TO GOOD-FAITH RELIANCE ON LAW OR ADVICE OF COUNSEL The Defendant, Stephen K. Bannon, is charged with contempt of Congress for willfully defying a subpoena that required him to produce records to and appear for a deposition before the U.S. House of Representatives Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol ("the Committee"). Despite the subpoena's demands, the Defendant did not produce a single record and did not appear for testimony on the date designated; he did not even submit objections to compliance or properly assert a privilege in the manner required by the subpoena. Since being indicted, the Defendant has indicated that his disregard of the subpoena was purportedly justified by legal privileges and his attorney's advice regarding them, as well as other claims relating to the legal validity of the subpoena. The Defendant's excuses for non- compliance are without merit, and his erroneous reliance on privileges and purported advice of counsel is no defense to contempt. TThe deliberate failure to comply with a congressional subpoena–regardless of motivation–constitutes the crime of contempt. Any evidence or argument relating to the Defendant's or his counsel's views of the law, or the Defendant's reliance on it, should therefore be excluded at trial
