  1. >When his case landed before a jury this week, Sullivan claimed that he was simply working as a citizen journalist to document history, and all of his words and deeds indicating he was sympathetic to President Donald Trump were just a ruse to blend in with the rioters. “It’s my job to document and record history,” Sullivan testified. He said his cheers of approval for the rioters and offers to help them were merely to “say a lot of things to try and protect myself” from people he feared might turn on him if they knew his true political colors.

    >The jury didn’t believe him. On Thursday, after deliberating for less than four hours, they convicted Sullivan of obstructing the electoral vote count, civil disorder and five misdemeanors, and Senior U.S. District Judge Royce C. Lamberth ordered him held in jail until sentencing.

  2. Without these terrorists filming what was going on we would have virtually no decent footage of the events of that day at all.

  3. I was only peeing! I was peeing too. We were all peeing.

  4. Whatever happened to that documentary filmmaker that had all the Executive Office access and had tons of footage – I thought that was gonna “seal the deal”

  5. Good. The more of these assholes who are behind bars the better.

  6. Behind a paywall, so don’t know if the article clarified things well enough. His wiki is pretty wild and he’s legitimately a POS.

  7. The face of a warrior against pronouns and transexuals. Just ignore the makeup and the over the top groommed eyebrows.

  8. Wow, I remember watching all his footage as videos were popping up on Twitter. He definitely seemed involved. Glad to see some justice and closure on this.

  9. What was this guy’s prior work like? What’s his political leanings? What topics does he cover? Or is he just full of shit, another MAGA trying to lie his way out of prison?

  10. What if I say I’m not like the others?

    What if I say I’m not just another one of Trump’s pawns?

    I’m the pretender.

  11. Unless he was “documenting” history from outside the fence and didn’t trespass.

  12. It will be much more fun when trump gets I to office and just starts jailing his opposition like henpromise.d then we can all laugh

  13. He admitted on his video (which he somehow thought was a defense) that he had the camera as a ruse to pretend he wasn’t one of them. He recorded that and then gave the recording to the police. These dunderheads are a national security threat.
