Two Women in Capitol Riot Were ‘Looking for Nancy to Shoot Her Friggin’ Brain’: Docs

Two Pennsylvania women were arrested on Friday after allegedly storming the Capitol on Jan. 6—and expressing their intent to kill House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Dawn Bancroft and Diana Santos-Smith are facing three charges including knowingly entering or remaining in a restricted building without lawful authority, and violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds. In a criminal complaint, prosecutors allege the pair were seen in a video trying to exit the Capitol after the riots. “We broke into the Capitol…we got inside, we did our part,” Bancroft, who is wearing a MAGA ski-cap, said in the video. “We were looking for Nancy to shoot her in the friggin’ brain but we didn’t find her.”

When the FBI questioned Santos-Smith on Jan. 20, she initially said she only attended former Trump’s rally and didn’t physically enter the Capitol. After agents showed her the video of her and Bancroft, Santos-Smith admitted they went inside but didn’t “have a pre-planned agenda” to do so. She added that when she and Bancroft arrived at the Capitol, they heard protesters saying “they’re letting us in,” which she interpreted as being allowed entry. The pair entered through a broken window—which Santos-Smith said she knew they should not have done.

1. Because many GOP members were involved in some way.
2. They do not care if someone was going to kill Pelosi.
Heck, they don't even care if Pence was going to be killed.

Just like sending US troops into corporate based battle is collateral damage for the ruling elite class.

Inciting a rabble of ignorant peckerwoods isn't something you should hold against your opponents. That's just vindictive, and anyway, "Dems have some real attackers, too", as Kasich said on Cuomo.

The Web address for owner Dawn Bancroft's business which also has her phone and address is:

https://www.crossfitsinepari.com/

quoted from her business's web page:

"CrossFit Sine Pari is a certified affiliate of CrossFit Inc. We are more than just a CrossFit Box, we are a life changing facility.

Our goal is to not only change our clients' fitness level, but his/her mentality as well. The training methods we use are tailored to meet each clients' ability level from soccer moms and kids, to senior citizens and high level athletes."

------------

Our goal is to not only change our clients' fitness level, but his/her mentality as well. How ironic is that sentence?

Also CrossFit Sine Pari in Doylestown PA which Dawn Bancroft is the owner appears to be franchised by CrossFit as her business appears on CrossFit's affiliates list:

https://www.crossfit.com/affiliate-list

I wonder if crossFit wants their business name associated with an insurrectionist?
