‘I Can’t Believe I’m Going to Jail for an NFT Salesman’: Jan. 6 Rioter Seemingly Done with Trump After Announcement Flop

The far-right streamer and Jan. 6 rioter known as “Baked Alaska” labeled former President Donald Trump a mere “nft salesman” after his teased “big announcement” flopped Thursday.

Trump riled up much of the political world Wednesday when he took to his account on Truth Social to hype a “major announcement” that ended up being a $99.00 NFT trading card of himself dressed as a superhero. The announcement drew mockery, ridicule, and concern from conservatives.

Baked Alaska is a White nationalist former MAGA streamer whose legal name is Anthime Joseph Gionet. He was among many who gave Trump’s latest money-making venture an icy reception.

Four days after his banned Twitter account was reinstated by Elon Musk, he tweeted, “[I] can’t believe [I’m] going to jail for an nft salesman,” he wrote.

Gionet pleaded guilty to assaulting a security guard at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. He has been sentenced to 30 days in jail but is currently waiting to begin serving the sentence.

Gionet streamed the attack online and the footage has been used in multiple cases against rioters.

You’ve minimized the record of the greatest president to 2 strawman arguments. You ignore obvious election cheating and the roadblocks rhinos and Dems elect. With ‘conservatives’ like you, we don’t need enemies.

You can fluff DeSantis all you want. He doesn’t have the track record 45 does.

What businesses has he owned? What Wolman ice rinks has he completed (look it up)?

So all this time Trump and others have been tweeting about election theft you thought they were lying? Making it up? You support the MSM narrative that the election theft was ‘the big lie’.

Trump WON and you’re saying he lost. You think Biden actually won. And now you’re saying Trump couldn’t win in 2024 either.

If I knew that you don’t find facts useful, I wouldn’t have wasted time posting facts to you, *smh*

Apparently many well educated people can’t read basic English either. Even those at Breitbart. Sounds pretty clear to me. If the statement was so obviously clear, why did Trump have to put out a new statement explaining it? You’ve a long road ahead trying to defend Trump’s statements. There will be many many more over the next 2 years. Best of luck to ya.

Yes, that is what I was referring to just regular civil service personnel, not appointees.

Well.... it seems like someone would get slayed for trying a purge like that.

I remember thinking it over at the time and thinking that 2-weeks and curve flattening seemed logical at the time. I remember Google even had a little Fauci and Birx thing. Fauci was the o and Birx was the l. I think Trump would have been slayed for firing him at that time.

On hindsight, we would have been a whole lot better off if Fauci had been fired.

Why couldn’t Breitbart? A strong Conservative internet news source?

The excuses will get bigger over time.

When he attacked DeSantis and Youngkin for no apparent reason in a scary childish manner the excuses were:

“It wasn’t what he meant.”

“DeSantis must have sent him a nasty email.”

“5-D Chess.”

“Trump is trolling the media into thinking DeSantis won’t be his running mate.”

Funny, no one even tried to defend the Youngkin attack.

Trump was a much needed great President. He needs to be gracious now and stop trying to seek revenge with our loyalty, support, and emotions.

Build the Presidential Library. Play golf.

Faucie had civil servive protections and couldn’t have been easily fired, but he could have been essentially sidelined/muzzled.

I agree the DeSantis “attack” prolly not the best idea.

Youngkin, I don’t know enough about.

Trump needs better advisors.

Only one guy was inaugurated, and it wasn't Trump. And that's a fact. Jack.

He could have been removed from the COVID task force, and replaced with someone with actual knowledge and experience of corona viruses.

Point to one who has been subject to more abuse, served the public faithful in the middle of multiple impeachment efforts and, upon leaving office, dedicated himself to uniting the country and exposing the left, going after free speech and is now stating his intention to return to office, resume taking the beating they’ve lined up, including preemptive attempts to frame him for treason and classified document at Mar A Lago etc.

Still he serves the public. No other presidential candidate has shown that he/she can withstand unprecedented levels of betrayal and abuse for years and come back for more, because they believe America is in great peril.

I’ve asked, and no one has put forth a candidate with Trump’s resilience and commitment to America. So that leaves people like you to sneer about ‘ever Trumpers’.
