Making her one of the worst offenders. She had to fight her way through police lines to be there first. She is a shitbag insurrectionist. She broke into the US Capitol as part of an armed insurrection. If not armed herself, she created cover for those who did making her no less guilty and she clearly meets the standard, there is no less than 10 minute exemption after being part of the crowd that was there first.
