The Justice Department is asking for the so-called QAnon Shaman, who wore a headdress and posed shirtless on the Senate floor during the siege of the US Capitol, to be sentenced to a prison term of more than four years, the longest incarceration prosecutors have asked for any guilty January 6 defendant so far, according to a new court filing.
Prosecutors' request for the high-profile Capitol riot defendant Jacob Chansley is as a harsh assessment of his crime and calls him "quite literally, their flagbearer" among the mob on January 6.
In their sentencing request to the judge filed late Tuesday night, prosecutors made clear they hope to use Chansley's sentence as an example to deter future attacks on the government.
The attempted coup, prosecutors wrote, "has made us all question the safety and security of the country in which we live."
"Those enormous harms, borne out of the acts of this defendant, must be deterred so that we never see a similar assault on our democracy again," they continued.
Chansley is set to be sentenced next Wednesday by Federal Judge Royce Lamberth of the DC District Court, as one of the first felony defendants to receive his punishment. He has been in jail for nearly 10 months.

Yes, the instigators of the Portland riots that burned down buildings got nothing, but this guy should get something.
IMO.
Where's my flame suit... .
“attempted coup”
Yeah, a ragtag bunch of misfits without any planning (except maybe by the FBI) didn’t attempt coup.
A coup d’etat WAS executed by H Clinton and all of her Russiagate cronies. The recent Durham evidence and arrests clearly shows that.
Which was a far bigger threat to the USA?
“QAnon Shaman”
So, now they are persecuting the clergy.
Judge Royce Lamberth is not a left wing tool so hopefully he will ignore this and impose a fair sentence.
He should get something just for dressing like that. Seriously, why should he “get something”?
We’re they escorted at some point. Seems like I saw a video of that.
FakeNewsMSM has attempted to disprove every attempt to show Chansley aka Angeli as other than a Trump supporter, but won’t show the following:

‘He should get something just for dressing like that. Seriously, why should he “get something”?’
Well, he does have a buffed chest... .
He should have fire bombed a courthouse dressed like Antifa ….then he wouldn’t even have been arrested
The attempted coup, prosecutors wrote, “has made us all question the safety and security of the country in which we live.”
So in order to have a coup, there has to be an attempt to overthrow the government or military. Where did that happen? Did the still certify the fraudulent election? Thats the real coup! Arrest the House and Senate!
Just remember this: Unless someone stops and properly undoes the efforts of the prosecutors and judges who are pushing a costumed moron to get four years in federal prison for trespassing and disturbing the peace in fancy dress, every one of them is going to be emboldened to imprison more protestors for lesser crimes the next time they get a chance, and they’ll be further along in their careers and in even more senior roles.
Nobody stopped Fauci in the 1980s when his strategy for addressing the AIDS epidemic was proving futile and dangerous, he kept pressing the same playbook over and over, each time from a spot just a little higher on the food chain and with more people reporting to him and parroting his flawed beliefs because he’s the boss. In government you never have to admit to a failed strategy, you only have to avoid blame long enough to increase your authority and try again harder.
Democrats are,disgusting.
VOTE DEMOCRATS OUT.
VOTE THEM OUT !!!!
How’d he even keep his goofball pants up?
A true man of mystery.
’ In government you never have to admit to a failed strategy, you only have to avoid blame long enough to increase your authority and try again harder.’
You make a great point in your post to me. This sentence struck me as significant among your message.
RE: Fauci etal, there is misjustice, yes. We have a very flawed system with which to battle. Re: this clown in an antler hat, he simply should have known better.
Again, the Portland rioters got off with handslaps. There is no justice in that.
There is very little justice in our system right now. Period.
‘How’d he even keep his goofball pants up?’
Ha!!!! Beats me. Today I was at the QuickTrip and a young man was sporting his whitey tighties underneath jeans that he is too stupid to put up. Thank God his undies were clean.
Must have used some industrial strength double sided tape right there at the hipbone it something. I’d like to meet his tailor.
And yet these f’rs haven’t pursued the people breaking down
temporary fencing at the White House, that caused Trump to
have to retreat to the presidential bunker.
These are the same folks who fire-bombed the church across
the way. Has anyone been arrested for that. Have employers
across the nation been asked to supply employee information
indicating they were in Washington, D. C. on that day?
Have credit cards been tapped to see what charges may have
been made in Washington, D. C. Have major carriers been
asked to supply ticket information?
This justice department has it’s head so far up it’s ass
it can verify if they’ve had their tonsils out or not.
or something
Memo to self: when you make yourself stand out..,,people will pay attention to you.
That’s not always a good thing.
I hope the judge has some common sense.
