Rachel Marie Powell, wanted for her alleged role in the U.S. Capitol riot on Jan. 6, was taken into custody Thursday night in New Castle, Pennsylvania, according to the FBI in Pittsburgh.

Powell, known as the "bullhorn lady," is a mother of eight from rural Sandy Lake in Mercer County, Pennsylvania. She was recognized in videos and photographs of the rioting wearing a pink hat, ramming a pole into the Capitol building and using a bullhorn to issue orders.

In the FBI's criminal complaint, Powell is connected to a scene inside the Capitol in which a group of people were "discussing how to further penetrate the Capitol building."

They don’t care if you are just burning down your own neighborhood. It’s when you bring the tar and feathers for THEM that they get testy.

Until they do the same to BLM and Antifa they are nothing but political operatives working for the evil doers. I have no respect for any of them.

By the way, when are the going to tell us the name of the person who murdered Ashli Babbitt?

I don’t think people fully realize that the US is, in fact, gone. Right now it’s like a chicken that has just been beheaded but is still running around the yard trying to squack. I expect it to finally drop in the summer. This partly speaks to my tag line from last year.

And I need to point out that my concern is really about western civilization, not just the US. They’ve killed it to bring in the NWO. Hence the rioting in Europe over the ridiculous lockdowns.

We are living in interesting times. It’s finally happened. A lot of people just don’t see it yet. I feel for those that don’t have Christ.

Why didn’t Trump pardon everyone? If anyone might deserve it, the people being politically persecuted might. Unless they are leftists, but then they won’t be prosecuted so...

“Hunger strikes have worked for political prisoners.”

Not sure how starving yourself to death can work.

Global feudalism with a drastically reduced population ids the goal. Survivors will be reduced to the status of sex toys, living organ farms, slave labor and fertilizer. Extreme, you say? Just ask the Chinese.

A friend of mine got word one of the neighbors at her apt complex was arrested by the FBI for being at the Capitol on Jan 6. Not sure what his involvement was but he was arrested at his home in NC.

Why weren’t the people who participated in the attacks on Trump supporters and threw concrete milkshakes at them rounded up?

My guess is she stands trial in a federal court and probably gets 20 years for “inciting an insurrection” and “sedition.” If they really want to make an example out of her, they will use the maximum penalty for these crimes, and that is death.

Her case will go before a Washington D.C. jury and a D.C. jury will not be that harsh.

It sometimes works with publicity.

There will be no reporting on these political prisoners
