Santilli.

Snip from that article.

“”This is a 50-year-old guy with no history of any violence,” Thomas Coan, Santilli’s attorney, said in an interview Wednesday. “Everything the government is claiming against him is based upon either his speech or his using speech to assemble people.”

The ACLU said it was not representing Santilli but was monitoring the case.”” (word count 53)

Some say Rabble rouser, trouble maker, etc

Just remember USAG Lynch paraphrased “those who speak ill or with ill intent against ........whoever” they will go after prosecute or ‘whatever’.
