Anthime Joseph Gionet, a far-right media personality nicknamed “Baked Alaska” who is known for livestreaming himself participating in illegal activity, was arrested by the F.B.I. on Friday and accused of illegally storming the Capitol during the attack on the building by President Trump’s supporters last week.

Mr. Gionet, who has been banned from Twitter and YouTube for his content, livestreamed himself in the mob on DLive, a streaming service becoming more popular after a mass exodus of right-wing figures from more mainstream platforms. He posted a video that showed supporters of Mr. Trump taking selfies with officers in the Capitol who calmly asked them to leave the premises. The video showed the Trump supporters talking among themselves, laughing, and telling the officers and each other: “This is only the beginning.”

Mr. Gionet was arrested in Houston on Friday, according to the Justice Department’s website, and charged with two federal crimes. In a court filing, Nicole Miller, an F.B.I. agent, said Mr. Gionet had recorded a 27-minute video in which he appeared to chant, “Patriots are in control,” and said, “We are in the Capitol building, 1776 will commence again.”

6. Neo-Nazi conspiracist 'Baked Alaska' arrested after live-streaming from Capitol insurrection

Tim Gionet has been banned from several social media platforms after posting antisemitic and white nationalist memes

Far-right personality and neo-Nazi conspiracist Tim Gionet, known as Baked Alaska, has been arrested by federal authorities after filming himself and a mob mounting an insurrection inside the US Capitol on 6 January.

Gionet live-streamed himself on the platform DLive for more than 20 minutes from inside the Capitol, including using a phone inside a US Senate office.

He has been banned from several social media platforms after posting antisemitic and white nationalist memes, and he has marched among hate groups in Charlottesville, Virginia and New Orleans, though he has dismissed neo-Nazi characterisations; the Southern Poverty Law Centre identifies him as a white nationalist.

A judge in Scottsdale, Arizona issued a warrant for Gionet’s arrest on Thursday for violating conditions of his parole by leaving the state to join the riot in Washington DC. He was facing misdemeanor charges of assault, disorderly conduct and criminal trespass in Scottsdale City Court after he allegedly pepper-sprayed an employee after he refused to leave a bar.

7. "Patriots are in control"

Those 4 words get me steamed, dammit.
This usurpation of the word "patriot" by Fox Noise pundits to brainwash the RWNJ's is reprehensible.
and... NO, MAGAt's, the rioters are OUT OF CONTROL.
