It didn't look like that many were near the Capitol.

More evidence law enforcement provoked much of the violence that happened on Jan 6.
Also what doesn’t add up: police claimed they were “overwhelmed” and caught off guard but DC police has numerous undercovers on site early and dozens showed up in riot gear at 1pm.

One of the defendants tweets:  Last November I filed a motion pointing out undercover police urged J6 protestors to advance up the steps to the Capitol. The government finally produced two of Leiva’s recordings in April.

The footage is completely black for 5 minutes as Leiva and Callahan walked up the steps.

Phillip Anderson almost died next to Rosanne Boyland on the steps of the Capitol on January 6th. Jake Lang saved his life & has been sitting in prison without trial for years now. Phillip has just been arrested & charged with non-violent crimes for obstructing the same police who shielded officer Leila Morris after she beat Rosanne when she was lying unarmed & unconscious on the ground. Phillip Anderson did nothing wrong & they will send him to prison anyway. Well done Republicans & Democrats - this is happening on your watch.

We just heard that Philip Anderson was kidnapped this morning by the FBI for surviving the January 6 election integrity protest. 18 months ago the FBI had told him that he would not be charged (they lied).

The obituary for Nejourde Meachum, age 22, an entirely peaceful J6er who died two weeks after he was charged with four misdemeanors.

Jord Meacham
June 16, 2001 — August 28, 2023
Pleasant Valley, Utah

Nejourde Thomas “Jord” Meacham, age 22, of Pleasant Valley, passed away August 28, 2023. He was born June 16, 2001, in Pleasant Valley, Utah, to Thomas and Kelli Yardley Meacham. 

Jord worked on the family’s ranch, and enjoyed riding horses, hunting, fishing, and doing anything out doors.  He was a big history buff and was a good cook – soup being his specialty.  Listening to music was a big part of his life and young kids were drawn to him.  He spent the summers working at Leader Creek Fisheries in Naknek, Alaska and cherished the time he spent there and the many friendships that he made. ...

NeJourde Meachum, age 22, who took his life just two weeks after being charged with four misdemeanors, entered the Capitol one minute before Ashli Babbitt.
