A man photographed wearing face paint and a horned headdress during the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol said he would be willing to testify at former President Trump’s impeachment trial in February, his attorney told The Associated Press.

Jacob Chansley, who is known as the “QAnon Shaman,” would be willing to testify that he was incited to allegedly storm the Capitol by the then-president, according to attorney Albert Watkins. "QAnon Shaman" is a name that references the far right conspiracy theory known as QAnon.

Watkins said his client has not yet made contact with any members of the Senate.

In a statement to The Hill, Watkins confirmed that his client would be willing to testify during the Senate impeachment trial.

1. Wow. Fake Indian who basterdized sacred Native American rituals is throwing Dear Leader

right back under the bus. Fuck him for stealing my people's religious practices and fuck him for being a goddamned traitor. Oh, and fuck Dear Leader, too. Sideways.

Sorry, but this asshole makes me really, really cranky.

3. +1

Word!!!

[Grokenstein]

8. No need to apologize for that.

The genuinely deranged keep projecting with accusations of "Trump Derangement Syndrome," but they can't adequately explain why we shouldn't be outraged; opposing traitors and subhuman garbage bags comes naturally to most of us.

9. No apology necessary

for righteous wrath.

[Joinfortmill]

12. Me too.

17. Don't forget his tats

The the Nordic ones? all co-opted by neo-nazis. The walls on his arms, may be a reference to Trump's Wall.

2. Sure, why not? Might as well cement his place in American history.

4. Lolololol. I'm sure he is. (Willing ) nt

5. Don't do it, Shaman. In prison, you're going to need the support of Aryan gangs.

With your "Nordic" tats, they'll be the only ones that will have you.

And they won't be happy if you snitch on their Poster Boy Trump.

6. I'm sure a lot of them will be willing to blame trump

Not that it’s going to do them any good, but certainly they all will be happy to say it wasn’t their fault. Perhaps other trumpists will reevaluate their commitment to the orange anus.

7. I hope he does, wearing his outfit of course. And acting like he did on the 6th.

What better message of who the base of the Republican party is these days. Let the Brooks Brothers suits enjoy their spawn.

[3Hotdogs]

11. Him, showing up in his regalia.

Now that would be a hoot.

[DeminPennswoods]

10. This is a good thing

For the trial, regardless of the preceived outcome, Dems need to establish the rioters went to the Capitol because Trump primed them, then told to go.

You never know, maybe this guy will end up influcing others of his ilk for the better.

13. We need to put an end to this "willing" noise.

This is not about Mr soi-disant "Shaman," but about this vogue we are in where people say they're "willing" to testify, as though they were doing society some great favor. If someone's testimony is considered germane, subpoena his ass, and if he's not "willing" to testify, throw him in the slam for contempt until he learns better. It is not a fucking option.

14. The things some people will do for organic food.

Hey shaman boy: Use one of those horns as a suppository for a few days, then get back to us.

[Pobeka]

15. Hey Shaman Boy -- you don't get to use the Senate Trial to sell a book.

You're going to jail -- make a deal and sign an affidavit for less jail time. The affidavit will be all the senate wants to see of your mange routine anyway.

We're all tired of grifting, that's sooo last four years.

[TexasBushwhacker]

16. He's a wannabe actor

He's saying he's willing to do anything for publicity.

[Calista241]

18. We already know exactly what Trump said.

This dude just needs to go away.

[Wawannabe]

19. Will he wear horns, hide and face paint??

Order organic coffee??

Not so sure this is a good idea!
But funny all the same. All TRAITORS!
