Feds Probing Alex Jones, Roger Stone Connection to Capitol Riot: Report (thedailybeast.com)
Feds Probing Alex Jones, Roger Stone Connection to Capitol Riot: Report
BAD INFLUENCES
The nation’s top law enforcement agencies are looking into whether Roger Stone, Alex Jones and other high-profile people who promoted former President Trump’s election fraud conspiracy may have influenced rioters who attacked the Capitol on Jan. 6. The FBI and Department of Justice began investigating a possible connection between the avid conspiracy theorists and the pro-Trump mob as a way to better understand the motivations of individual rioters, law enforcement sources told The Washington Post. Stone and Jones have spoken approvingly of the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers, two extremist groups who were front and center during the riot. It’s possible but unlikely that either man would face criminal charges, officials say, and both have adamantly denied that they had any part in the violence that day.

Merrick Garland to commit to overseeing "prosecution of white supremacists" who stormed Capitol - CBS News
Merrick Garland to commit to overseeing "prosecution of white supremacists" who stormed Capitol
Judge Merrick Garland, President Joe Biden's nominee for attorney general, will sit before the Senate Judiciary Committee for his confirmation hearing on Monday. In his opening statement, Garland says he will make civil rights, confronting "extremist attacks," and upholding the independence of the Department of Justice some of his top priorities.
"If I am confirmed, serving as Attorney General will be the culmination of a career I have dedicated to ensuring that the laws of our country are fairly and faithfully enforced, and that the rights of all Americans are protected," Garland will say, according to prepared remarks that were released Saturday.
After demonstrations protesting the deaths of African Americans at the hands of police and systemic racial injustice swept across the country last year, Garland will make clear the role the department plays in addressing civil rights matters, acknowledging "we do not yet have equal justice."
"Communities of color and other minorities still face discrimination in housing, education, employment, and the criminal justice system; and bear the brunt of the harm caused by pandemic, pollution, and climate change," Garland's statement says.
Monday's hearing comes five years after Senate Republicans blocked Garland's Supreme Court nomination without even granting him a confirmation hearing. Garland was nominated by former President Barack Obama to fill the seat previously occupied by the late-Justice Antonin Scalia, who died in 2016.
As the nation's top law enforcement officer, Garland will inherit the ongoing investigations into the rioters who took part in the Capitol insurrection on January 6. News of Mr. Biden's intention to nominate Garland broke on the same day as the deadly assault on the U.S. Capitol.
Garland is no stranger to extremist violence. He is known for earlier work at the Justice Department, where he oversaw the prosecution of Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh and lone wolf bomber Ted Kaczynski, widely known as the "Unabomber."
"150 years after the department's founding, battling extremist attacks on our democratic institutions also remains central to its mission," Garland's remarks say. "If confirmed, I will supervise the prosecution of white supremacists and others who stormed the Capitol on January 6 — a heinous attack that sought to disrupt a cornerstone of our democracy: the peaceful transfer of power to a newly elected government."
At an event held the day after the Capitol riot to announce the nomination, Mr. Biden addressed Garland and other nominees for top Justice Department positions, saying, "You won't work for me. You are not the president or the vice president's lawyer.
"Your loyalty is not to me. It's to the law, the Constitution, the people of this nation to guarantee justice," Mr. Biden added.
Garland will also oversee several ongoing politically sensitive investigations, such as the one looking into the "tax affairs" of Mr. Biden's son, Hunter Biden, as well as Special Counsel John Durham's probe into the origins of the 2016 Russia investigation.
However, in his prepared remarks, Garland makes clear that as attorney general, his job will be to uphold the "rule of law," and do so by "reaffirming... norms."
Garland will highlight the importance of existing policies that "protect the independence of the department from partisan influence in law enforcement investigations" and "strictly regulate communications with the White House."
Several Senate Judiciary Republicans said Wednesday they would press Garland during his confirmation hearing to commit to investigating COVID-19 nursing home deaths, including New York Governor Andrew Cuomo's controversial reporting of nursing home death totals in his state.
Garland's hearing is scheduled to take place Monday and Tuesday, and the committee will vote on whether to advance his nomination to the Senate floor on March 1.
On Friday, letters of support for his nomination were submitted to the committee from a bipartisan group of officials. The group included 61 former federal judges, as well as over 150 former U.S. attorneys and senior DOJ officials, including former Attorneys General Eric Holder, Loretta Lynch and Michael Mukasey.
"Judge Garland has dedicated much of his life to the American justice system," the letter read. "And we can unequivocally state that Judge Garland is the right person to ensure that the rule of law remains, in our national consciousness, one of our most deeply-held values."
Garland was appointed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia in 1997 by former President Bill Clinton and served as chief judge for seven years. Before he was a judge, he served within the ranks at the Justice Department as an assistant U.S. attorney in Washington, D.C., deputy assistant attorney general for the criminal division, and as principal associate deputy attorney general. He graduated from Harvard College summa cum laude in 1974 and Harvard Law School magna cum laude in 1977.

We have yet to see anybody go to trial, so maybe they are right. It takes twelve people to convict and only one to hang the jury. more than a third of this country thought Trump was justified to call out the mob. So, we'll see.

Fortunately they are morons, dangerous morons though, they are gonna find they out ran their white privilege, they got used to the way things were when Donald ran the show, there's a new sheriff in town now! Merrick Garland wants a return to "norms" and if that's the case, all these clowns are fucked from Trump to his cronies, family and down to the useful idiots who stormed the Capital. I figure that was the rock they broke upon, they stormed the capital and disrupted the government, but had no plan or organization about what to do. They succeeded in breeching the capital only because of their large numbers and the unprepared state of the capital police. If you attempt to violently overthrow the government you had best succeed, because they tend to come down real hard on those who try.Fucking Trump supporting idiots

The only thing these guys succeeded in besides breeching the capital was fucking themselves and their cause. Donald has left the republican party divided and radicalized, only psychos, crazies and Trump sycophants can get a nomination. They appear to have lost a critical mass of support that will allow them to win nationally, many have walked away from the party since the capital sacking and big corporate donors are falling away too. Donald ain't done yet either, he is gonna put the knife into Mitch and the sane wing of the party with a speech at CPAC next Sunday. Who knows, perhaps someone will indict him before then!

I would expect the ball to begin to roll in justice after Garland is confirmed. I think Joe knows his views on the law and how to write one, both are highly experienced.

As Joe Biden weighs domestic terrorism law, let's ask Merrick Garland (usatoday.com)
As Biden weighs domestic terrorism law, let's pause — and ask Merrick Garland
Our View: After the deadly U.S. Capitol attack, Congress wants to do something about homegrown terrorists. But would a new federal law protect everyone's civil rights?
The fight against domestic terrorism creates awful choices for a free society. The sacking of the U.S. Capitol by insurrectional rioters demonstrates beyond question that violent extremism is America's reality now. Then President-elect Joe Biden wasted no time labeling them domestic terrorists.
Nonetheless, there's also little doubt that targeting perceived ideological threats contributed to our nation's most shameful episodes of civil rights abuse and governmental spying on citizens. The FBI wiretapped and recorded the private moments of Martin Luther King Jr. in a bid to humiliate him. And after 9/11, the government secretly collected phone "metadata" from virtually every American under the reactionary USA Patriot Act.
Now the Biden administration is considering a new domestic terrorism law to crack down on homegrown violent extremism, something Biden promised during his campaign, well before the Jan. 6 storming of the Capitol.
Defining a terrorist
There might easily be consensus today that someone smashing into the Capitol to stop an electoral count is a domestic terrorist, but what if tomorrow that label is applied to a Black Lives Matter, an environmental or a guns rights activist?
Just as important, what green light would the creation of a domestic terrorism law offer federal investigators to begin monitoring such conduct if, say, windows were smashed during a street demonstration?
And would it even pass constitutional muster?
The definition of a terrorist under federal law is anyone who commits violence ranging from murder to destruction of property with the intent of intimidating or coercing a civilian population, influencing government policy through intimidation or coercion, or to affect the conduct of the government. The law applies only against international terrorism. It allows the federal government to declare groups such as al-Qaida or the Islamic State a terrorist organization and prosecute anyone who offers them any kind of assistance, from explosives to a gift card.
The Supreme Court has already indicated that though the government can declare an organization based outside the USA a terror group, the same declaration of an organization inside the USA would risk violating First Amendment speech and assembly protections. While the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, occurred inside America, the attackers were based outside.
Comprehensive threat assessment
Strip that declaration of a group as a terrorist organization out of a domestic terrorism law, and what's left is a statute that outlaws conduct like murder, kidnapping or property destruction, crimes for which there are already state laws — and federal law where hate crimes are a factor.
Nevertheless, there has been a ringing, bipartisan clamor in Congress for a domestic terrorism law. "We have to do something," House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., said during a hearing on the Capitol riot this month.
What Washington needs to do is take a deep breath.
A good first step was Biden's decision last month ordering a comprehensive assessment: Just what is the threat of domestic violent extremism?
Racially motivated terrorism
It's hard to tell the dimensions from federal data because there isn't any. FBI Director Christopher Wray testified last year that racially motivated violent extremism accounted for most of a growing number of domestic terrorism incidents, but he had no numbers. A Homeland Security report in October warned that "racially and ethnically motivated violent extremists — specifically white supremacists extremists — will remain the most persistent and lethal threat in the Homeland." But it had no 2020 data. The FBI makes the same case, but declines to reveal statistics.
Making matters worse, even as far-right extremism was growing, law enforcement shifted resources — at then-President Donald Trump's urging — to disproportionately target the radical far l left, such as anti-fascist groups that fall under the umbrella term "antifa."
The public deserves to know precisely what the threat is and that it's being addressed so, for example, law enforcement won't be caught flat-footed, allowing the U.S. Capitol to be overrun.
Legislation proposed by Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., would call for regular, detailed assessments of domestic terrorism and provide oversight to ensure resources go where they're needed.
Congress should hear expert testimony on what or whether new laws are necessary, and how best to avoid violating civil rights and liberties in any crackdown on violent extremism.
And it would be vital during his confirmation hearing this week to ask Biden's nominee for attorney general, Merrick Garland, what he thinks about a new domestic terrorism law. As a top Justice Department official, he supervised a successful prosecution in the nation's worst case of domestic terrorism — the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995 that killed 168 Americans.
And he did it without a domestic terrorism law.

Dominion targets MyPillow's Mike Lindell with $1.3B defamation suit
Dominion Voting Systems is suing MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, a vocal supporter of former President Trump, in a $1.3 billion defamation suit.
“He is well aware of the independent audits and paper ballot recounts conclusively disproving the Big Lie,” reads the lawsuit, according to the Journal. “But Lindell...sells the lie to this day because the lie sells pillows.”
Lindell told The Daily Beast last week that he hoped Dominion would sue him as it did Powell and Giuliani so that he could obtain evidence through discovery. “That would so make my day because then they would have to go into discovery, and that would make my job a lot easier,” he said. “It’ll be faster for me to get to the evidence, and to show the people in the public record the evidence we have about these machines," he added. "I will not stop until every single person on the planet knows, whether you’re a Democrat or a Republican, what these machines did to us.”

My pillow guy was way too close to Donald for way too long and probably looking for a pardon. This guy was a lifelong grifter and probably has plenty of legal, tax and accounting trouble, someone just has to look. If they get his company, it will be a hollowed out husk with a destroyed brand and he probably has shoveled every dime into involatile trust funds to shield his assets from law suits. Whether he can shield himself from criminal conspiracy indictments is another question, the FBI is gonna want to have a long talk with Mike, so will congress and probably a grand jury too.Dominion targets MyPillow's Mike Lindell with $1.3B defamation suit
