A fellow conservative asked me why the FBI arrested him, considering that it destroys their narrative, and goes against everything they believe in these days (empowering Democrats).
I told him that they may have concluded that it’s one thing to get rid of Trump...but they hadn’t thought past it and are now just realizing that the Cultural Revolution they started to rid the country of Trump has all the markings of a forthcoming genocide and it’s time to hit the brakes, at least a bit.
Facts do not matter anymore.
But But, Trump ordered the whole thing, says the Communist media, who will NEVER EVER apologize because they are pricks
It’ll be a ‘whatever’ and move on to something else mundane.

amazing how WaPo has nothing to say about who Sullivan is - Insurgence USA/BLM, uses antifa hashtags etc. - but plenty to say about others:
14 Jan: Seattle Times: Capitol riot arrests: Retired firefighter accused of throwing fire extinguisher at police; man carrying Confederate flag
By Spencer S. Hsu, Ann E. Marimow and Rachel Weiner, The Washington Post
John Earle Sullivan, 26, of Utah, was charged after allegedly entering the building and recording when Ashli Babbitt was shot by an officer while she attempted to climb through an opening outside of the Speaker’s Lobby. In a video he posted online and gave the FBI, Sullivan could be heard narrating the riot, saying “There are so many people. Let’s go. This [expletive] is ours! [Expletive] yeah,” and “Let’s burn this [expletive] down!” according to charging papers...

unbelievable garbage from Fox on the arrest, given how Fox, like CNN/Anderson Cooper, were part of the initial attempt to cover for this guy:
15 Jan: Fox13: Utah activist John Sullivan arrested for involvement in Capitol riots
by Jeff Tavss
The Tooele County Sheriff’s Office released a mug shot after Sullivan was booked into jail. No charges have been announced.
In a video posted to social media last week, Sullivan said he ran into the Capitol building with the others to document what was transpiring.
“I was there to record,” said Sullivan in a video posted to Periscope Friday. “I was there to let people see that situation in the best possible way.”
Sullivan is the founder of Insurgence USA, an activist group formed after the killing of George Floyd in the summer of 2020.
In the social media video, Sullivan added that his videos proved that the riots were comprised of Trump supporters and not antifa members...

9 Jan updated 10 Jan: Fox13: Utah activist claims he was just documenting US Capitol insurgence
by Jeff Tavss
John Sullivan, a civil rights activist, claims he attended the protest and broke into the Capitol along with Trump supporters only as a way to give a true view of what was occurring...
Sullivan is the founder of Insurgence USA, an activist group formed after the killing of George Floyd in the summer of 2020.
“We want to build local powers to enable the community to intervene in violence enacted by the state and government vigilantes. Our mission is the unification of our nation because a people united will never be divided.” the group says on its website...
Sullivan told FOX News he attends protests across the country to record what’s going on, but did not actively partake in the insurgence in Washington, although he admitted to climbing through a window to gain access to the Capitol...
Sullivan said he doesn’t support Trump or Biden, and while he believes that that black lives matter, he is not a member of the Black Lives Matter organization...
“I just wanted to be able to show people how it was, and I knew I would be able to get to the truth and to the front and be able to show you, I’m talking to these people, I’m conversing with these people in the crowd, but I can’t tell you that I agree with Trump or MAGA supporters,” Sullivan said. “I can tell you I don’t.”
Sullivan said he was near Ashli Babbitt when she was shot and killed in the Capitol building, but being able to show her death was why he was in DC.
“How would you have a clear vision of this woman getting shot by this officer that was in there and she was dying?” asks Sullivan in the video. “What proof or evidence, other than body cam video that can be easily deleted.”
“This is what everyone needed to see.”
Sullivan goes on to say his documentation disproves those who claim Antifa members dressed as Trump supporters were actually the ones who invaded the building.
“In my footage, clear as day, Antifa is not out there doing that.” said Sullivan, who added that he is not a member of Antifa...

8 Jan: Fox News: BLM activist inside Capitol claims he was ‘documenting’ riots, once said ‘burn it all down’
John Sullivan has previously called for ‘revolution’ and to ‘rip Trump’ out of his office
by Michael Ruiz; Fox News’ Sam Dorman contributed to this report.
An anti-Trump activist who once said he wanted to “rip” the president out of office entered the Capitol Building Wednesday alongside a mob of pro-Trump protesters, but he said he was just there to “document” it.
“There’s this narrative going around right now that Antifa was the people there causing the riots, causing the tension, they were the only people breaking into the Capitol, and I wanted to be able to tell a part of history and show that that was anything but the case,” John Sullivan, the founder of Utah-based Insurgence USA, told Fox News Thursday.
Insurgence USA describes itself as “the revolution.”...
Sullivan told Fox News he didn’t notice other left-wing activists inside the building. But he added that he couldn’t know for sure without speaking to everyone individually.
“As far as being able to understand who is in the crowd, based on being around protests a lot … I didn’t see any people who were originally at BLM protests,” he said...
Sullivan told Fox News he regularly attends protests to record what’s going on, including a clash involving Proud Boys on Tuesday near D.C.’s Black Lives Matter Plaza.
“It’s just recording, solely, and not being active in it,” he claimed, although he reportedly was arrested in connection with protests back in Utah over the summer and admitted climbing into the Capitol through a window.
His Insurgence USA group’s website advertised an event called “Kick These Fascists out of DC” on Wednesday around the same time as a pro-Trump rally near the National Mall...
Sullivan’s Utah arrest was in connection with a protest where a different protester allegedly shot a passing motorist during a confrontation, according to the Deseret News.

Every one in the blogosphere has known this for days, and the idiots at the FBI are just figuring it out now.
That guy is a leftist agitator. Communists are by no means liberals.
Pelozi’s coup is coming to light.
Liberal activist?
He's the founder and leader of a revolutionary-communist organization! ("Insurgence USA")
The communist POS was posing as a Trump supporter, as I suspected from the start, many others were too...
By imitating a political opponent and the committing a crime, isn’t he guilty of denying others their constitutional rights ?
He and the other other communists leading this movement, including those in the Democrat Party, are guilty of treason and should be imprisoned and/or hung for such.

Yeah; right...
The language he uses and how he says it tells me that much of what we’re dealing with are the manifestations of at least one generation of Americans being told over and over again that everything was meant to be about them, and therefore, everything belongs to them and they can do what they please with it. They have developed such unrealistic expectations of America and their fellow Americans that they deserve nothing but to have the lessons they so desperately need to learn be placed as obstacles to their intended path. They have shown the world what they’re made of and it’s not in any way the “right stuff” for the future of America and the world. They’re phony as all hell and these “revolutionaries” have been given the path of least resistance in major cities to show the world how free and brave they are as they change the world from within their local and state government-enabled comfort zones (another gross manifestation of their PC upbringing). Recognition and respect for them is all but out the window now, and if any of them have taken a look in the mirror, they don’t see what the rest of America and the world sees. They see only what they think the world should think it sees- They are the people they’ve been waiting for and they have their unrealistic expectations of others to actually allow them to take their American privilege and try to shove it up their fellow Americans’ asses when they realize how small they really are in the grand scheme of things. Sorry kids, but all future field trips have been postponed due to the ban on arson, grand larceny, assault, terrorism, murder, etc...And the fact that 35 years old is the new 15.
You mean not cheap like $20K per day? /s
An honest FBI agent? He’ll be standing in the unemployment line next week.
I’m sure he has been bailed out by now, never to be seen again.
That video we’ve all seen of the group in the capitol, planning to “take this building.” 2 of those guys look VERY familiar, like from previous rioting videos. I know I’ve seen them before. I think there was a mix in that room - antifa and fringe Right who had no idea who the others were, hence the lack of a plan.
Several people posted stuff on Twitter about those 2 bearded guys and guess what - it was IMMEDIATELY removed by Twitter!
I bet we will NEVER see the 2 bearded guys or the pink hat lady EVER arrested, and that will speak volumes about who they are.
But he’s going to be on Biden’s cabinet.
