Link to tweet
J6 defendant Brandon Fellows, who was recently released from prison and is still on probation, was removed from the House hearing today after he mocked Dr. Fauci while he described death threats against his daughter.
End snip.
Who placed him behind Dr. Fauci to make faces for the camera?
How is it that a J6er can enter the Capitol while on probation?
Who knew he was there?

(9,354 posts)go through a Congresscritter, because a Justice's spouse woulf have no standing to enter the Capitol except as a guest. But there are plenty of Congresscritters who would have been happy to help. On the other hand, she has never been vocally anti-vax that I know of - just Nazi.

(9,354 posts)(Off toplic, but do you suppose it would be possible for us to spell her nickname "Marj"? There's no G in Marjorie, and every timeI see "Marge" it remonds me of my Aunt Margaret who accepted only nicknames with a hard G She must have known someone awful named Marjorie too.)

Lots of it is done by contractors for Lilly in Puerto Rico as well.

I would think they have some leeway in who they allow into those chambers.

(7,794 posts)You may require a conservative logic implant to appreciate the American government's inability to do the right thing in a bi-partisan curriculum.
The smug, preppy frat boy Trumpers are the actual worst. Yuck. I wouldn't be surprised if he was invited by some Breitbart or The Blaze reporter who was given access. Could be a congressperson, but my bet is on a right wing propagandist reporter instead.

(19,438 posts)Did he notify his Probation Officer that he'd be leaving the county to continue his terrorist activities?
NanaCat
(2,332 posts)For leaving the county. With some of them, the notification is for leaving the state.
I doubt he lives in DC these days, though, so your question is otherwise a valid one.
ancianita
(43,307 posts)One of the Democrats should investigate both. And notify Judge McFadden who issued his sentence.
FBI field offices near Schenectady should check with his probation officer.
He's got a history of scoffing at the law. Apparently, his supervision ended or failed.
Federal prosecutors sought a top-of-the-guidelines sentence o 37 months in prison describing him as a cheerleader for violent rioters and saying he could be expected to be back at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2025, if his preferred candidate again doesnt win.
At his sentencing hearing Thursday, U.S. District Judge Trevor McFadden agreed. McFadden, a former deputy assistant attorney general who was nominated to the federal bench by former President Donald Trump in 2017, said in all his years in law he had never seen a defendant as contemptuous as Fellows.You have repeatedly made a mockery of these proceedings, McFadden said, noting Fellows had shown the height of contempt for all three branches of government and had flagrantly lied on the stand at trial. McFadden also pushed back against Fellows belief that he was the victim of a grand conspiracy against him.
It is, rather, your defiance of any and every attempt to try to get your actions to conform to what the law requires that has gotten you to this point, McFadden said, adding in exasperation a short time later, Its time for you to grow up!
Fellows will receive credit for approximately 32 months already spent in detention but will have to serve an additional five months behind bars for criminal contempt after the time from his Jan. 6 sentence is completed. McFadden ordered Fellows to spend three years under supervision following his release.

(43,307 posts)Those in Congress who aid and abet them at hearings MUST be investigated. This could be a setup for them to say, "See? They investigate the investigators, too!" But the public that wants the truth can easily see behind this false equivalency bullshit.
I know, I do, too. I don't want to hate them, tho', I just want them to be afraid of our lawyer/agents who'll be tracking them. Channel all hate toward law enforcement and justice. That's the righteous fight.

(7,790 posts)of what we're going to have to contend with even when we win all 3 branches.... heck, we'll be dealing with the likes of him long after his great lord and savior is dead and in the ground. Perhaps if he goes to prison, he could be intensely rehabbed while he was there. Maybe come out a different, better person. Yeah, I'm dreaming. I don't think any amount of deprogramming is gonna help these losers.

Ivan Raiklin responded to the attention hes getting for sitting behind Dr. Fauci by saying he regretted not being close enough to Fauci to bite his ear off.
This is a dangerous psychopath who should be locked up, not roaming Congress threatening national heroes.

Flynn Org terrorist, Russian asset Ivan Raiklin who threatens extrajudicial live swatting raids and executions sitting behind Dr. Fauci in Congress is an intelligence and national security failure beyond my capacity to fathom.

Security eventually kicked Fellows out ( https://www.msn.com/en-us/foodanddrink/wines/brandon-fellows-removed-from-fauci-hearing/vi-BB1nyBlu ) but apparently not that asshole Raiklin.
