The "QAnon shaman" arrested after taking part in the storming of the US Capitol building last week is reportedly demanding organic food in jail.
Arizona man Jake Angeli, 33, is facing federal misdemeanour charges after being photographed wearing a buffalo headdress and tricolour facepaint amid the mob of Donald Trump zealots who attacked the government building.
He is accused of knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority and violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds.
These Trump supporters, what a bunch of soyboy cuck snowflakes amirite?

They were going to hang Pence, not shoot him in the face. I think the gallows was for Palosi... I’m not saying the guy with 11 Molotov cocktails or the guys who planted bombs at RNC and DNC nor the guys that killed a cop... wouldn’t have shot people in the face... but, clarifying... Pence hanged, Palosi crucified, police bombed with Molotov cocktails and RNC/DNC bombed... no specific plans to shoot anyone in the face were found.

Capitol ‘rioter who wanted to shoot Nancy Pelosi’s noggin’ arrested
No, expel dangerous, reckless, irresponsible lawmakers who directly put others at risk and likely infected them because they're such huge snowflakes they think wearing a mask is an assault on their freedoms.
Not sure how that is confused for a coup. Not sure how holding people accountable for their actions is a coup.
But I guess the conservative victim-train in the US is still marching full steam ahead. Sure, it may have run over a bunch of people, but it's their fault for being in the track and the train is the real victim here because now it's all covered in gross blood and guts and ew.

This last part was really what I was thinking in the recent days, but I don't think it only applies to congress. It applies to everyone in the Republican party who let Trump prevail with his fairy tale of the stolen election and did not object. The likes of Mitch McConell and Lindsay Graham have to take ownership of their lies and deception of their constituants. They really need to man up. Which we all know they won't.
If we are to restore democratic norms and make sure this does not happen again, these congressional Republicans will have to take personal responsibility for their actions in support of Trump’s coup attempt. They must tell the truth to their constituents about the election and what the president tried to do in January 2021. They owe it to the people they represent as well as the country they serve.
