Rioter Brandon Fellows, who has called Jan. 6 a “beautiful day” and indicated he still believes that the 2020 election was stolen from Donald Trump, has represented himself in the trial that began last week and took the stand during Tuesday’s hearing.

Enjoy prison! I’m sure you’ll meet some fellow Nazis and improve your network.

Rioter represented himself making what Abe Lincoln and maybe others have said:

“The man who represents himself has a fool for a client.”

It’s all a cunning plan to appeal, on account of incompetent counsel.

A Trump-appointed judge gives us our first look at how the “This court is corrupt and illegitimate” defense is going to work out for these folks.

Turtle’s not the first senator to overstay his time in the senate, usually some serious illness has to set in before they’ll even make a move in that direction. Strom Thurmond, segregationist first and always, was gaga but wouldn’t leave. Had to be brought in in a wheelchair.

What a low foul brood Trump agitated and then unleashed on our nation.

The murder of Blacks(Tallahassee most recently), Jews(the worst attack on Jewish people in North American history), Asians, and especially Gay folks lay right at Trump’s feet: The perps were within earshot of his constant hateful spew on TV, radio, and internet. The silence of Republican elected officials who, when they don’t in their hearts actually condone his hatemonger, know it results in unprovoked undeserved mayhem and death for Americans. They are among the lowest creatures on the planet. To know better and stay silent was the “German miracle” of the Nazis. Fox is the Goebbels.

This absolute dipstick should’ve gone to the Holocaust Museum on January 5 and seen what Nazis really did. They rounded people up, marched them out to the woods, stripped them naked, shot them in the neck and kicked their lifeless bodies into giant open pits. Some of the early entrants to the pits got to dig the pits before being stripped naked, shot and kicked in.

The repair workers on the scaffolding which still covers the Capitol, represent the only jobs the failed coup plotter in chief, ever created.

So I found this info on our current bad boy.

At 29 with or without some sort of cognitive/mental impairment his behavior is out of control. Given the opportunity to have a mental evaluation he skips out on the appointment.
His federal appointed defense attorney tried to keep him from defending himself, but refused her advice.

“We had the right to overthrow it.”

Ah, Article III, Section 3, Clause 1 of the Constitution says otherwise.

“It’s the people’s house,” Fellows said on the stand. “We had the right to overthrow it.”

While you were in it? Doesn’t seem like a smart move, but then again, you’re a MORON.

Brandon Fellows is stupid as well as insolent but, a slave to his prejudices, he is far less his own man than he appears to believe.

The fact that the stupid person is often stubborn must not blind us to the fact that he is not independent. In conversation with him, one virtually feels that one is dealing not at all with a person, but with slogans, catchwords and the like that have taken possession of him. He is under a spell, blinded, misused, and abused in his very being. Having thus become a mindless tool, the stupid person will also be capable of any evil and at the same time incapable of seeing that it is evil.
