2) directed the Invaders to proceed peacefully (instead of asking them to leave)
3) traded something of mine for a maga hat so they'd think I was one of them

5) joked with the Insurrectionists so they wouldn't hurt me

And many other excuses they will need to investigate, while also investigating their social media accounts. Not sure of the exact number, but 140+ Leo's were injured. The 35 being investigated probably didn't have a scratch, and didn't respond as they should have.
