1/6 defendant Brandon Straka to plead guilty. [View all]

It's supposed to happen tomorrow. He's a bit up the food chain. He was the head of some organization of former liberals for Trump and visited Mar-A-Lago at least once
He spoke at a Jan 5 rally and possibly on Jan. 6. He had a felony dropped a month ago and recently posted on twitter to his followers that they make might hear negative news about him. Marcy Wheeler thinks his deal might have been made in return for cooperation that has already happened.
He's the first one to plead who would know about 1/6 planning. We should find out tomorrow about any cooperation.
