Jan 6 Rioter Profits Off the Government He Tried to 'Overthrow'

[RandySF]

A Pennsylvania man charged with assaulting law enforcement officers with a flagpole during the Jan. 6 attack on the United States Capitol is profiting handsomely off the democratically-elected government he sought to undermine.

Mechanicsburg resident Lowell Gates, who was arrested and charged earlier this month for his role in the Capitol riot, owns dozens of properties in South Central Pennsylvania through a property management company he co-owns with his wife, Linda Gates.

Following Gates’ arrest, social media posts appeared on X, formerly known as Twitter, revealing that Gates’ company, Linlo Properties, owns a building that is leased to the US Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

The Keystone was able to confirm that Linlo Properties owns and manages a building that the Cumberland County Veterans Affairs Outpatient Clinic operates out of in Mechanicsburg, just outside of Harrisburg.

As reported by the Central Penn Business Journal, Linlo Properties developed the Mechanicsburg VA clinic that opened in 2018. The construction of the 25,000 square foot building cost over $6 million. The Keystone could not determine the length or financial terms of the lease.

1. Why would a leasing agreement ....

Not be readily available? That seems like basic information that all government agencies should have to provide under FOIA.

The government should revoke its arrangement with this traitor!
