‘Walis tambo’ man tagged in US Capitol riot swept to jail

A man who was seen carrying a “walis tambo” (broom) during the riot of Trump supporters at the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C. in January has been arrested in Virginia, authorities have said. Kene Brian Lazo was arrested by federal agents on Friday in Norfolk, Virginia on charges related to the US Capitol breach on Jan. 6. The assault on the US Capitol, which left 5 people dead, came hours after then still President Donald Trump urged his supporters to fight the election outcome and block the formal certification of then President-elect Joe Biden’s victory. The certification eventually pushed through despite unprecedented violence. According to the affidavit filed by a special agent, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) received a tip about a Facebook user named “Fam Council” who stormed the Capitol last January, with the account bearing a photo of a masked rioter who wore a helmet with a “Rodbustars” sticker.  FBI agents then traced “Rodbustars” to Rodbustars LLC, a company owned by Lazo and his wife, as well as a business phone number. Records of that number the FBI obtained showed that the phone was near the Capitol at the time of the riot and that it was the same number listed on the ‘Fam Council’ Facebook account. Agents later found through records obtained from Facebook that the account was run by Lazo and his wife, but that it was Lazo who posted about going to Washington, D.C. to protest, the affidavit said. On Jan. 3, Lazo wrote “all is good uncle..i will be going (to) washington DC to protest on jan6.” A day later, he told someone on Facebook that he “will be the only 1 with a boi boi representing (A)sians.” “Boi boi” appears to be a reference to the “walis tambo” broom  commonly used in Philippine households, the affidavit said. After the riot, Lazo posted on Facebook that he “took a boi boi to the Capitol and swept the floor literally.” A day later, someone on Facebook asked him, “How does it feel being there protesting at the White House Brian? Are you still there right now?” Lazo responded that “they still stole it even tho there cheating … it was humbling.” He also posted photos of the outfit he planned to wear on January 6, the day of the Capitol breach.

Florida Woman Assaulted U.S. Capitol Sergeant With a Flagpole and Threatened Nancy Pelosi on Jan. 6th, Feds Say

In an affidavit, the FBI embedded this still frame from video footage of Audrey Ann Southard-Rumsey allegedly pushing a flagpole against a police sergeant. Typically, federal charges against a 52-year-old woman accused of assaulting a police sergeant with a flagpole and threatening the Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives would be an extraordinary event. In the case of Audrey Ann Southard-Rumsey, it’s just another Wednesday on the ever-expanding U.S. Capitol riot docket, where attacks on law enforcement rank in the triple digits and threats against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi hit federal court almost as regularly as rain. “Tell Pelosi we are coming for that bitch,” Southard-Rumsey allegedly shouted at police, using the same barnyard epithet for the Democratic Party’s California-based leader as her fellow alleged rioter Richard “Bigo” Barnett is said to have scrawled on a note at her desk. Arrested on Wednesday, Southard-Rumsey adds to the growing list of those accused of attacking police with fists, poles, and chemical spray on Jan. 6th. The count stood at an estimated 139 assaults on law enforcement last week. More than 125 people have been charged to date with assaulting or impeding law enforcement, according to the U.S. Attorney’s office. The FBI’s affidavit alleges that a flagpole was Southard-Rumsey’s weapon of choice. “At some point during Sgt. V.’s interaction with Southard-Rumsey, she obtained a flagpole which she held in her hands and pressed against his chest,” an agent’s affidavit states, shielding the name of the U.S. Capitol Police sergeant. “Once Southard-Rumsey had the flagpole on Sgt. V.’s chest, she did not remove it and he felt pressure from it. Southard-Rumsey was the only one holding onto the flagpole. When the second agitator of the group yelled ‘Let’s go,’ Southard-Rumsey started pushing Sgt. V. with the flagpole and drove him back into the first set of doors leading onto the House floor. When Sgt. V. hit the doors, the doors flew open and he was pushed into the Lafayette marble statue striking the back left side of his head on the base of the statue. Sgt. V. felt like he was being trampled during the ordeal.” Authorities say that Southard-Rumsey can be heard on video shouting at law enforcement: “There’s a hundred thousand of us, what’s it going to be?” and “Last friend, last bullet. What’s it going to be?”

This Accused #Capitol #Rioter Beat His #Pregnant Girlfriend and Threw Her Into a Canal – #trump #violence

Ryan Samsel was seen in video footage wearing a red MAGA hat and standing on the front lines of rioters as they pushed past Capitol police. An accused January 6 insurrectionist who’s facing charges for allegedly attacking an officer during the Capitol riot has a history of “choking and beating women to the point of loss of consciousness,” according to federal prosecutors. Ryan Samsel’s record of violent assault and domestic violence, dating back to 2006, was brought to light in court documents filed earlier this week as part of the government’s argument for why he should remain in jail pending the outcome of the trial. Samsel, 38, from Bristol, Pennsylvania, was seen in video footage from January 6 wearing a red MAGA hat and standing on the front lines of rioters as they pushed their way past rows of Capitol police. Prosecutors say that he shoved a female Capitol Police officer, causing her to bash her head into the ground, leaving her “semiconscious.” She later blacked out, and was treated for a concussion at a hospital. His behavior that day, prosecutors say, is consistent with his past. In 2009, for example, Samsel was apparently convicted of assault and reckless endangerment when he held a woman against her will for five hours, choked her to the point of unconsciousness, beat her up, and chipped her teeth.  Two years later, he was convicted on charges linked to attacking his pregnant girlfriend. Prosecutors said he smashed a hot pizza in her face, beat her up, threw her into a canal, and held her head under water. She escaped from him and ran barefoot through the street until she saw a parked police vehicle and “desperately tried to open the door” until the officer saw her and unlocked it so she could get in.  Years later, another woman said that Samsel had choked her to the point of unconsciousness on several occasions, raped her, and broken into her house multiple times to attack her. She obtained a restraining order against him, but said he had violated it multiple times. Samsel is not the only accused Capitol rioter with a documented history of domestic abuse. A HuffPost investigation from early February identified nine other insurrectionists who have either faced charges, jail time, or been hit with restraining orders, due to domestic violence or sexual assault.

#QAnon Already Has 19 Candidates Running for Congress in 2022

As the GOP becomes more receptive to the conspiracy theory, more of the cult’s followers are running for office. With 18 months to go before the 2022 midterms, QAnon supporters are already seizing on the GOP’s embrace of the conspiracy theory and throwing their hats in the ring for a seat in Congress. So far, 19 people who have publicly shown support for the QAnon conspiracy theory have declared their intention to run in House and Senate races across the country, according to an investigation by Media Matters for America (MMFA).  All but one of the candidates are running as Republican candidates. The single anomaly is Mindy Robinson, who is running as an independent candidate in Nevada’s 3rd Congressional District, running under the “Patriot Party of Nevada” banner. Like 14 others on the list, Robinson was a candidate for Congress in the 2020 election, and like all but two of those, she lost. The two candidates who ran successfully in 2020 are Rep. Lauren Boebert from Colorado and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene from Georgia, who are both up for reelection next year. The number of QAnon-supporting candidates is likely to increase as the 2022 elections approach (in 2020 the final tally of QAnon supporters who ran for Congress was 97, according to a tracker set up by MMFA).

Verfassungsschützer über Maaßen – “Klassische antisemitische Stereotype”

Der Präsident des Thüringer Landesamtes für Verfassungsschutz wirft dem CDU-Politiker Hans-Georg Maaßen die Verbreitung antisemitischer Vorurteile vor. Gestützt wird seine Einschätzung auch aus der Wissenschaft. Stephan Kramer, Präsident des Thüringer Amtes für Verfassungsschutz, wirft dem ehemaligen Präsidenten des Bundesamtes für Verfassungsschutz (BfV) und CDU-Bundestagskandidaten Hans-Georg Maaßen vor, antisemitische Stereotype zu verbreiten.”Das sind für mich klassische antisemitische Stereotype, die benutzt werden bei Herrn Maaßen, wenn man die Summe aller Dinge zusammennimmt, auch auf den unterschiedlichen sozialen Plattformen, aber auch in eigenen Reden. Da gibt’s eigentlich nichts Entlastendes mehr zu bemerken. Er nutzt antisemitische Stereotype, um auf Stimmenfang zu gehen. Und ich glaube, als solches muss man es auch einfach bezeichnen”, so Kramer im Interview mit dem ARD-Politikmagazin Kontraste. Die Einschätzung Kramers stützt sich auf die Analyse von Publikationen Maaßens und dessen Verwendung bestimmter Begriffe. So schrieb Maaßen als Co-Autor im Magazin “Cato” einen Essay mit dem Titel “Aufstieg und Fall des Postnationalismus”. Darin skizziert er eine orchestrierte Entwicklung der gezielten Zerstörung gewachsener Traditionen und Nationalkulturen mit dem Ziel, das Volk in eine “anonyme, atomisierte Masse” zu verwandeln, die “leicht zu kontrollieren und zu manipulieren ist”. Als Drahtzieher dieses Projektes haben sich laut Maaßen und seinem Co-Autoren zwei Gruppen “verschmolzen”, die man bisher für Gegner hielt: Zum einen die “vormals sozialistischen Linken” und sogenannte “Wirtschaftsglobalisten”. Letztere hofften auf diese Weise “globale Profite zunehmend auf einige tausend Familien zu konzentrieren, die sich daranmachen, bald alles zu besitzen.””Rechtsextremer Code””Globalisten ist ein rechtsextremer Code, darin sind sich unter anderem die Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung und die Bundeszentrale für politische Bildung einig”, so Kramer. Gegenüber Kontraste verweist er zudem darauf, dass Maaßen auch den verschwörungsideologischen Begriff der “neuen Weltordnung” verwendet. Grundzug dieser Vorstellung sei eine totalitäre globale Regierung einer internationalen Elite, die die Menschheit versklavt und aussaugt. “Es grüßen die ‘Protokolle der Weisen von Zion'”, erklärt Kramer unter Verweis auf eine gleichnamige antisemitische Hetzschrift.

Man faces six months in prison for giving Nazi salute in Fort Breendonk

A judge handed down an €800 fine and a six months suspended prison sentence to a Belgian man who was photographed giving the Nazi salute in Fort Breendonk. Fort Breendonk, located near Mechelen in the province of Antwerp, served as a Nazi prison camp during the German occupation of Belgium during World War II and is now a museum. Gunnar Verreycken (25), a descendant of a well-known Flemish nationalist family, had the photo taken in front of Nazi items exhibited in one of the museum’s rooms back in August 2019. The room served as the canteen for Nazi soldiers and is preserved exactly as it was at the time, with the large German eagle perched atop a swastika with the SS motto – Meine Ehre heißt Treue, or My honour is called loyalty – emblazoned beneath it. The site has attracted many neo-Nazis looking for a photo opportunity over the years. Verreycken posed for a photo, and a separate photo of that photo being taken ended up on social media and eventually made its way into the papers in November of 2019. The court said that by making the Nazi salute in the former prison camp infamous for torturing and executing members of the anti-Nazi resistance, as well as political prisoners and Jews, Verreycken was giving an approval of genocide and inciting hatred and violence. “By doing so, he showed a lack of respect for the countless victims of the genocide during the Second World War and for the grief of their relatives,” the verdict read in part. (…) Verreycken visited Fort Breendonk on the day the photo was taken with around ten members of Right Wing Resistance Flanders, a group whose members are considered to be right-wing extremists by Belgium’s Coordination Unit for Threat Analysis (CUTA, or OCAD in Dutch). A member of Right Wing Resistance was arrested last week for threatening virologist Marc Van Ranst. When police searched the home of Verreycken, they found a collection of Nazi marching music, an SS uniform and a flag for Identitaire Beweging (Identity Movement), a pan-European extreme right-wing movement. His phone had already been confiscated as part of a separate investigation into allegations of stalking and possession of child pornography. The photo of Verreycken giving the Nazi salute was found on it. Verreycken is no stranger to right-wing ideology. His father is a former member of parliament for Vlaams Belang and his grandfather was a senator for Vlaams Blok, that party’s predecessor.

#Polizeigewerkschaft und AfD – Thüringer #GdP will AfD-Politiker ausschließen – #unvereinbarkeitsbeschluss

Der Thüringer Landesverband der Gewerkschaft der Polizei hält an einem Ausschluss des AfD-Innenpolitikers und Polizisten Ringo Mühlmann fest. Damit soll ein Beschluss des Bundesvorstands der GdP umgesetzt werden. Doch der ist umstritten – und wann Mühlmann die Gewerkschaft wirklich verlässt, ist offen. Er lässt es offenbar auf ein Schiedsgerichtsverfahren ankommen. Am Anfang aller Debatten steht Paragraf acht der Satzung der Gewerkschaft der Polizei (GdP). Die, wie sie selber sagt, weltgrößte Interessenvereinigung für Polizeibeamtinnen und Polizeibeamte hat sich eine eindeutige Formulierung in die Satzung geschrieben. “Unvereinbar mit der Mitgliedschaft in der GdP und im Landesbezirk ist die Mitgliedschaft in einer undemokratischen Vereinigung oder Partei.” So weit, so klar. Doch damit fangen die Probleme der GdP an. Denn es muss auch geregelt werden, was undemokratisch bedeutet. Diese Feststellung, heißt es in der Satzung weiter, treffe der Bundeskongress. Wenn der gerade nicht tagt, kann der Bundesvorstand darüber entscheiden, und der hat das auch getan. Aufforderung an AfD-Mitglieder zum Austritt. Im März dieses Jahres wurde von ihm beschlossen und an die Landesverbände die Order ausgegeben: Mitglieder, bei denen bekannt ist, dass sie der AfD angehören, sind aufzufordern, die GdP oder die AfD zu verlassen. Beides sei in der Zukunft nicht mehr möglich. Auch den Thüringer Landesbezirk der GdP erreichte dieser Bundesvorstandsbeschluss. In der Folge bekam der Thüringer AfD-Landtagsabgeordnete Ringo Mühlmann Post. Denn der ist Polizeibeamter im Thüringer Landeskriminalamt (LKA) und Mitglied der dortigen GdP-Kreisgruppe. Doch Mühlmann rührte sich in der ihm gesetzten 14-tägigen Frist nicht. Das geht aus internen GdP-Unterlagen hervor, die MDR THÜRINGEN vorliegen. Er trat weder aus, noch reagierte er sonst wie offiziell.
