Feds said today that the "bulk" of the defense's claims about discovery "are not accurate," and that they've been trying to work to get discovery but there have been a few technical difficulties.

Ryan J. Reilly
@ryanjreilly
Over the weekend, a lawyer for white supremacist Timothy Hale-Cusanelli informed the court that his client is "justifiably frustrated with the lack of progress” in the case and wants him replaced. Discovery is slow, there’s been no plea offer, and he remains locked up.

Judge sentences former New Jersey police chief who called Donald Trump the “last hope for white people” to 2+ years in federal prison, adding that he has a “lifetime status as a convicted felon, a racist, a liar.”

Jurors deadlocked on the hate crime charge. Nucera’s attorney argued that the feds were trying to “turn criminal justice into social justice.”

Some officers crossed the blue line and testified against their chief, who compared Black people to ISIS, said they should “stay the fuck out of Bordentown,” and said he wished he could join a firing squad and “mow ‘em down.”

From the charging documents: "According to JEREMY, the closest he got to the U.S. Capitol Building was a “round about thing” on the west side of the building.

Well that turned out to be a lie.

@seditiontrack
His dad was arrested back in February and for some reason he not only helped the FBI find the shirt he was wearing on 1/6 but he also gave "written permission" for them to search his cell phone.

And of course they found all of the movies and photos he had "deleted".


And of course they found the obligatory "white power" gang sign that the Proud Boys are so fond of.

"FBI are the terrorists, bunch of scum,” Trump supporter Adam Weibling wrote on Twitter. “The FBI are not that different from Hitler’s SS.”

“The FBI deserves a special place in hell…”

“...sometimes violence is a good thing.”

“...at worst this was breaking and entering.”

“these people had every right to break into the [Capitol].”

QAnon Shaman attorney Al Watkins, the eccentric lawyer who recently called Capitol attack defendants “fucking short-bus people,” uses the term “special” (in quotes) in his latest filing. Jacob Chansley, his attorney writes, had "pre-existing mental vulnerabilities.”

"The former President blanketly referred to those who appeared at the Capitol on January 6, 2021 as ‘special.’… This proclamation of Former President Trump may, to many, be the sole proclamation which they can embrace without apprehension.” https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.dcd.225845/gov.uscourts.dcd.225845.40.0.pdf

One of the defense exhibits is a “career paper” that Jake Chansley wrote in 2005.

Chansley wrote that he wanted "to be a ‘master,’ a Christ, a Buddha, or a Muhammad, whichever you prefer to call it.”

Scoop: You may recall Robert Packer, a man wearing a ‘Camp Auschwitz’ hoodie on Jan 6th at the Capitol. It took a few calls & some USGovt court filings but I got the search warrant

Here’s a rundown of Hitler, antisemitic, and white supremacy items the FBI took out of his house

@SeamusHughes
Woke up yesterday & thought to myself, I bet there’s a search warrant on Packer somewhere. There was. But it was locked. Spent afternoon making sure it saw the light of day
