A Maryland man who allegedly hit police officers with a bat during the U.S. Capitol riots said on the day of the assault that he was "not here for Trump," CBS Baltimore reports....
...Jackson was seen on video surveillance footage making a fist and repeatedly striking a U.S. Capitol Police officer, while he tried to enter the building. He was one of the first people to enter the building, federal authorities said.
Jackson was interviewed the day of the riot and the video was posted to Twitter.
"I had a bat. They were pepper spraying people. Then, they got me in the eye," he said.
Asked why he was there, Jackson replied, "Fighting for America. We've been taken over by globalists, by the Chinese. Fighting for America. I'm not here for Trump. I'm here for America."

He beat all the officers off?
Wanker.
Interesting how all this comes out AFTER Trump was impeached.
Well, it may be tough work, but somebody’s got to do it.
“Fish gotta swim, birds gotta fly...”
He just happened to have a bat with him, at a political rally, which he would not have been allowed to enter which caring a bat? Going to the batting cage, and just decided to stop by?
And if he is an Antifa his charges will be mysteriously dropped.
“We’ve been taken over by globalists, by the Chinese”
Ain’t that the truth brother.
I thought the news said the capitol rioters were all white supremacists?
lol!
He's anti-CCP, that counts as anti-Asian, which is white supremacist, or something. Whatever, it's all Trump's fault.
“We’ve been taken over by globalists, by the Chinese”
Even worse than that...we’ve been taken over by democrats!
Nobody who is ‘here for America’ would swing a baseball bat at an Officer of the law in 99.9999% of the time.
You could easily kill or maim someone for life.
“What we have here is a failure to communicate!”
He will be in prison for himself.
