The AP reported this item this afternoon near 3PM:
November 8, 2023
WASHINGTON (AP) — Four California men linked to the “Three Percenters” militia movement have been convicted charges including conspiracy and obstruction for their roles in the Jan. 6, 2021 riot at the U.S. Capitol.
Erik Scott Warner, 48; Felipe Antonio Martinez, 50; Derek Kinnison, 42; and Ronald Mele, 54. were found guilty on Tuesday after a trial in Washington’s federal court.
They were charged in 2021 alongside Alan Hostetter, a former California police chief who was convicted in July in a separate trial. Another one of their codefendants, Russell Taylor, pleaded guilty in April to a conspiracy charge.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
4 of the 5 were convicted in court by judges or juries. The 5th plead guilty.
With the country's revulsion toward those bad actors who went to DC on J6, and then broke into the Capitol, slugged or sprayed a cop, stole a laptop, pooped in the hallways......well, it's been a fraught journey. Their families have had to suffer. Unquestionably. Here, it is what?.....nearly 2yrs and the Jackasses and the families are still paying a dear price.
So be it. They harmed America. They harmed America's confidence in its elections. Their families generally didn't.....but the Jackasses most certainly did.
In my view (and I think there is a separate thread mentioning the same)....but J6 is a defining event in the America of today. Most certainly the defining event of Don Trump's term in office. It's repercussions will linger for a very long time.....and not just with the Jackasses and their families.
A further look into J6 has been released in an HBO documentary.

"Alexandra Pelosi saw the mob from inside the Capitol and witnessed rioters trying to break a window to enter.
The result of her conversations with “the normies” who participated is “The Insurrectionist Next Door,” her 15th HBO documentary, premiering Sunday (9 EDT/PDT).
“The security made us leave, and so I never got to see them face to face,” she says. “I was really curious: Who are these people that came to kill my mother? Who are these people that wanted to hang her from a lamp post? Who are these people that said, 'I'm going to put a bullet in her noggin?'”
