Said Timothy Hale-Cusanelli, 32, of New Jersey, quoted in "Nazi sympathizer and Jan. 6 rioter to be sentenced/Thursday
Federal prosecutors are seeking 6½ years in prison for Timothy Hale-Cusanelli of New Jersey" (NBC News).
What he conceded sounded idiotic was his testimony that he didn't know that the Capitol was the location of Congress. The idea was that intent to go into the building did not automatically equate with obstruction of Congress, which was the crime charged. The jury didn't believe that, and now the government wants a harsher sentence on the theory that he lied under oath.

Ah yes... six and a half years for the crime of walking into the Peoples House... all while Democrats who literally target and run over and kill 18 year olds they think are "MAGA Extremists" get let out of jail and are charged with at most a 2 year crime.
Kind of surprised our gracious hostess hasn't blogged that story from McHenry, North Dakota yet.
A nice "compare and contrast" thing. You can literally murder Republicans and walk out on minuscule bail, but dare to think Joe Biden didn't win and they want 6 1/2 years in hard prison?
You don't get that much time for murder, especially in blue jurisdictions.
Unlike the left, I'm no fan of Nazis, but since when is it illegal to be a Nazi sympathizer?
How is that relevant?
If it was, half the democrat party would be in prison...
Have you ever watched Jay Leno's old 'Man on the street' interviews?
Or seen to Jesse Watters' man on the street interviews?
It makes you laugh but should also make you very afraid.
People couldn't answer, 'What country is the Queen of England from?'
Or, 'What two countries border the United States?'
Thanks, teachers' union!
At this point anyone that supports the Biden Regime is a fascist sympathizer.
How do you prove someone "lied" instead of them just being ignorant?
I believe him. I also believe that the race-gender-antifa-etc. people are sincere. We did away with tradition and common ground, so whatever childish impulse that comes to mind is now spoken and executed.
Twitterocracy. Trump. Cancel culture. Impeachment for spitting on the sidewalk. All the same.
If they want punishment for perjury, let them convict him of perjury. This seems like punishment without indictment and trial.
Lied that he's a far-left ideologue ("Nazi") and probable rabid diversitist ("color supremacist")? Lied that an invitation extended and a rug summarily pulled was not a plausible, let alone probable obstruction of congress? Lied that the riot ("disorder") was forced by the elective abortion of an unarmed woman in a prone position and others with em-pathetic indignation by a triggered capitol police and probable Whitmer event? Lied that he knew, believed, or read that the capitol is a stage for the People and "our Posterity"'s representatives?
My brother was visiting me in DC a few years back and thought the Capitol building was city hall. Not everyone knows.
The jury didn't believe that, and now the government wants a harsher sentence on the theory that he lied under oath.
If the government wants him to spend more time in jail on the theory that he lied under oath they are welcome to charge him with perjury and then convince a jury.
Lawless DC juries will convict any Republican or Center-right person of any crime, and will NEVER convict a Democrat/leftist of the same crime.
DC voted 93 percent Democrat. Lawless juries. Republicans should put in bill that Defendents have a right to move the trials, since they CANNOT get a fair trial in DC or the DC area.
Ashli Babbitt was exceuted By Capital Policeman Lt Byrd. He didn't even answer questions regarding the killing and was given a clean bill of health and a medal. Meanwhile Floyd George was given 4 public funerals, and his killer is serving 20 years in Jail.
The Garland Gulag gets another political prisoner.
I love how he uses New Jersey to justify his stupidity. But at lease he's not a stupid as a New Jersey Democrat.
Stupid people from "The Garden State" re-elected Democrat Governor Phil Murphy after he purposefully contaminated New Jersey nursing homes and killed nine-thousand (9,000) residents and staff in early 2020. Just like Andrew Cuomo.
New Jersey suffers from New York penis envy like Wisconsin does with Illinois.
The 9000 accounts for 27% of all New Jersey COVID Deaths. Then in Dec 2021 New Jersey agreed to pay out $53 million to 119 families who lost loved ones in two of the state's veteran nursing homes. And Phil Murphy got re-elected.
I believe this guy. He's from Joisey. Like Pauly D and Snooky.
A lot of the capitol building is not where the Senate or House meets. Every tour I've been on was the hall of statues and the rotunda, one time we saw the subway.
Justice?
Retribution?
Intimidation?
Try to remember that real terror always comes from a government.
Everyone participating in these political prosecutions should face The Hague and The Hangman when the war is over.

I believe him. A huge portion of our high school students could not tell you where their nations capital is, let alone who works in the Capitol building. Nor could they tell you who their Representative or US Senator is, nor the location of their own state capital. They have no idea who fought in the Civil War, WWI, or WWII. But they are damned sure the seas are rising and Miami will be under water in 5 or so years.

The defense attorney might have considered producing a public opinion poll/survey to determine how many Americans know that the Capitol is the building for the U.S. Congress. It could be less than 50% of the public who'd be able to say that.
I hate to say it but I don't think any conservative or Trump supporter can get a fair trial in DC. If the jury can decide a defendant lied like this there is no justice for the "wrong" people.
DC should be abolished.
Maybe they should of just run him over.
Apparently vehicular homicide is no beg deal in the Dakotas.
I hope these Jan6 committee participants and prosecutors are shown the appropriate level of mercy when they stand before The Man. Garbage people.
It is criminal what has been done to the January 6th protesters, and there will be payback at some point- count on it. This is no longer the United States I grew up in, and I will no longer respect this government.
As we all mourn for Ya’ll Queda’s failed coup on 1/6, light a candle for this sad, deluded cultist of The Gravy Seals, Meal Team 6. Maybe if his mommy had packed him one more sammy, he could of stopped the steal.
Are there any literate people on DC juries? Or is that an automatic disqualification?
“As we all mourn for Ya’ll Queda’s failed coup on 1/6…”
Y’all Qaeda, that is funny and apt. Too bad he has 4 years in prison to have to think about how he could’ve been so dumb.
Interesting how there is so much sympathy here for this Nazi sympathizer.
“In a sentencing memo filed last week, the government noted that in the days after Jan. 6, Mr. Hale-Cusanelli told his roommate at the naval station that he had been exhilarated by the storming of the Capitol, comparing it to a “civil war.” The memo also said that Mr. Hale-Cusanelli told his roommate that he wanted to “root out entrenched interests” in the United States, specifically “Jewish interests puppeteering the media, major corporations, the Democratic Party, Joe Biden and the government as a whole.””

The case I'm always comparing to any of the Jan. 6th cases, is the one of the two young lawyers who torched a cop car with molotov cocktails and had more of them in their possession. Last I heard they copped a plea deal that at most carries 24 months.
I wonder what happened to that boogaloo boy who shot the federal security officer?
A former U.S. Air Force staff sergeant and alleged member of the "boogaloo" extremist movement pleaded guilty Friday in the fatal shooting of a federal security officer in the San Francisco Bay Area amid large 2020 protests against police brutality.
Steven Carrillo, 33, changed his plea to guilty to a federal murder charge in the killing of David Patrick Underwood and to the attempted murder of Underwood's colleague after federal prosecutors last month agreed not to seek the death penalty.
Oh yes, he also killed another man, a deputy.
“Carrillo was arrested a week after the shooting in Oakland after he allegedly ambushed sheriff's deputies in Santa Cruz County who were responding to a report of a van containing firearms and bomb-making materials. Sgt. Damon Gutzwiller, 38, was killed and several other law enforcement officials were wounded, according to authorities and court records.”
Prosecutors have said Carrillo, of Santa Cruz, had ties to the "boogaloo" movement —a concept embraced by a loose network of gun enthusiasts and militia-style extremists. The group started in alt-right culture on the internet with the belief that there is an impending U.S. civil war, according to experts.
"I aligned myself with the anti-government movement and wanted to carry out violent acts against federal law enforcement officers in particular," Carrillo said.“
Better Execute him. Or Trump will pardon him in January, 2024.
Here's NBC description of his so-called Nazi views:
1) that he held “extremist or radical views pertaining to the Jewish people, minorities, and women”;
2) that he attended a Black Lives Matter protest carrying a “clipboard full of statistics” in hopes someone would “debate him” about differences between races;
3)that he was arrested with two others 12 years ago and accused of using a “potato gun” bearing the words “WHITE IS RIGHT,”
Notice the vagueness. "Extreme or Radical" means what EXACTLY? You can be damn sure that he made hateful/racists remarks about blacks, we wouldn't have him described as just being "radical or extreme".
Again, this is just what anybody with brain expected. Once you buy into the concept of "Hate Speech" or demanding that someone who is racist or a Nazi be cancelled, punished or treated badly, then all the left has to do is keep EXPANDING what "HATE SPEECH" or a "racist" or "Nazi" is. Now, we've gotten to the point where you can get thrown in jail for 4 years for tresspassing, mostly because you said "white is right" and wanted to debate people about black crime!
If the Left start throwing average Republicans in jail, they'll label them Nazis or Racists and that will be that.
Political prisoners. We have political prisoners in this country and our gutless republicans allow it.
Inga finally found a Boogaloo Boy. Congratulations, idiot.

And what part of any of that is a criminal offense, Inga? He may be a bigot; he wouldn't be the first, and he wouldn't be the last, and a whoooole lot of those are on your side, not mine. He may be prone to hyperbole. But what part of any of that is criminal?
Did he trespass? Maybe. (I don't know if this particular guy is one of the people waved in by the Capitol police.) Did he hope that his possible trespass would piss someone off? I would guess yes. When is the last time you heard of a protestor's getting 6 years for trespassing and pissing someone off?
Can you admit to yourself that your standard of "rule of law" is out of whack, if you believe this guy, but not the protestors who accosted congresspeople physically and verbally in the elevator, for instance, deserves 6 years in prison? More, if the Biden regime gets its way? I'm not asking you to change your mind, just to admit - to yourself - that you are A-OK with politically based persecution.
It would be a tiny step in the correct direction, whether your goal is to be a good American or to be a good German, so to speak. You decide.
The most disappointing thing about this Democrat version of the Reichstag fire? No fire. However there were SS, I mean, FBI there to instruct the visitors. just like in the actual Reichstag fire.
Anyhow the results are the same. One Nation! One Party! One demented leader!
Interesting how there is so much sympathy here for this Nazi sympathizer.
Right, because in America justice is dependent on the current correctness of one's thoughts.
People like Inga thought the "Jew lovers" in 1940's Germany deserved what they got.
