US Capitol riot defendant jailed after watching MyPillow CEO's conspiracy symposium while prohibited from going online
This is CNN ^ | September 2, 2021 | Marshall Cohen

The QAnon supporter who chased Officer Eugene Goodman near the Senate chamber during the US Capitol insurrection was sent back to jail Thursday, in part because he violated the rules of his release by going online to access conspiracy theories about the 2020 election.

Those conditions included a prohibition on using the internet -- to keep Jensen away from the QAnon conspiracy, which he previously admitted to investigators was the reason he breached the Capitol. But when court officials made their first unannounced visit to check on Jensen at his home last month, they found him in his garage, using a cell phone to stream a right-wing news outlet.

According to court filings, Jensen admitted to the court officials that he also used the phone to stream a conspiracy-filled symposium held by MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, a diehard supporter of former President Donald Trump who has repeatedly pushed debunked claims and haywire theories about foreign countries switching millions of votes to steal the election from Trump.

"But it's now clear that he has not experienced the transformation that his lawyer previously described, and that he continues to seek out the conspiracy theories that led to his dangerous conduct on January 6," continued Kelly, who was appointed by Trump in 2017 to the DC District Court. "I don't see any reason to believe that he has had the wake-up call that he needs."

"At first glance, it sounds a bit Orwellian. A man sitting in his garage streaming the news over the internet... now the government wants to jail him," Jensen's lawyer Christopher Davis said.

"Orwellian aside," Davis continued, "he was wrong, and he's not denying that."

You’re buying this, that they showed up just at the same time he was accessing a web site on his phone?

You have to laugh at CNN. They have the story generator all set to plug in useful liberal tropes and Et Voila! A new story is written.

“QAnon conspirac”
“Right-wing news outlet”
“Conspiracy-filled symposium”
“diehard supporter”
“debunked claims”
“haywire theories”
“animal dewormer”

Just mix and match to your heart’s content and you, too, are a CNN “reporter.”

A real bright bulb, this Jensen. Like it or not, you are supposed to follow the orders of the court.
There’s several ways he could have watched his rallies, but using his cell to access the internet wasn’t one of them.

“You’re buying this, that they showed up just at the same time he was accessing a web site on his phone?”

*****

Gotta be more to the story, huh?

Being such a very high profile, hyper politicized deal, and having spent so much time in the pokey already, with the release conditions being no internet, you’d think he’d be smarter than to watch MyPillow Guy’s Cyber Symposium on his phone.

However, he may have went to Wal-Mart and paid cash for a pre-paid phone for the express purpose of watching the Symposium.

Hanging out in the garage with the garage door open, smoking cigarettes, drinking beer and talking to friends is a common practice, at least among my ancestors, so they could have walked up on him during that.

Then back in the slam he goes.
