There was a tawdry preview of election violence on April 16 as the Supreme Court heard Fischer v. United States.
On April 16, the Court heard the case of Fischer v. United States. This was largely a technical matter dealing with the sentencing of some January 6th defendants. While it’s not a Get Out of Jail Free card, despite what J6 supporters may believe, it could reduce the sentences of the most violent J6ers.
More than fifty members of the public were in line for Fischer, including some of the Chuds of Freedom Corner, the listless, dead-end vigil for J6ers outside the DC Jail. They believe that the people convicted of attacking the Capitol Police on January 6th are “good men” who should be immediately released from prison.
Countering them was Anarchy Princess, bearing signs that spelled out the truth about these “good men” including:
- Brian Jackson, a member of a white supremacist prison gang and a literal Nazi covered in swastikas who pled guilty to assaulting federal officers on January 6th.
- Andrew Taake, who attacked officers with a metal whip and then bragged about it on Bumble. He was out on bond at the time of January 6th for felony offense of solicitation of a minor.
- Jake Lang, who attacked officers with a baseball bat and then Instagrammed it.
Donald Trump, Elise Stefanik and the Republican Party call these men “hostages.”
Anarchy Princess was there with the truth, walking down the line of people waiting to enter the court, her sign spelling out the facts: these men are violent criminals.
Out of the thousands of cases that get submitted every year, the Supreme Court reached down and selected Fischer v. United States for review.
A Supreme Court appointed by the leader of an insurrection will decide whether insurrectionists were sentenced appropriately.
It’s a helluva country.
As if to highlight the absurd, comical, illegitimate nature of the performance before the Supreme Court, one of the insurrectionists was in the audience.
Bryan Betancur, a convicted January 6th rioter and aspiring school shooter was in line to get into the court.

AP and I warned the Supreme Court police about him. She has an anti-stalking order against him which he has repeatedly violated.
Their response: “We’ll keep an eye on him.” Betancur walked into the court wearing an ankle monitor.
We can all see where this is going. Clarence Thomas, whose wife helped organize January 6th, tried to minimize the events of that day as he and other the justices searched for a way to reduce the sentences of these violent men. It’s the least that they can do for the Insurrectionist in Chief.
Trump supporters use violence to overthrow elections that they don’t like. And they use violence to suppress the free speech rights of others.
Being in front of the Supreme Court didn’t stop them.
As Anarchy Princess walked with her signs, she was surrounded by a black-clad mob of January 6th supporters. These are the women of Freedom Corner, the wives and girlfriends of January 6th prisoners, including the wife of Brian Jackson.
Ripping a sign out of her hands, one of them elbowed her hard in the side. All caught on camera directly in front of the marble columns of the Supreme Court as they heard a January 6th case.
Sure looks like a pre-planned assault by #FreedomCorner to me. I bet they didn’t think any angles like this existed after they rushed to have Rebecca delete her video. pic.twitter.com/fVR7v3Zj8I

J6ers feel emboldened enough to commit violence once again in Washington, DC. An assault in the name of “good men” like Brian Jackson, Jake Lang and Andrew Taake, who they would see free and walking among us.
Next week, the Court will decide whether Trump is immune from prosecution. We settled this principle in 1776 when we ousted a king; the Court is determined to give us one again.
If Trump is immune, then his mob is too. January 6th prisoners are already planning for the day that Trump pardons them.
Those are the stakes in the next election. Do we reward violence or punish it? If Donald Trump gets elected, expect a wave of January 6th-style attacks across the country as his supporters pursue retribution against anyone who believes in democracy.
If Trump wins, there will be no limits. You won’t be safe; none of us will be.
We must win.
If prisoners are released they should all be loaded on a bus and taken to Florida where they will be dropped off at Mar a Lago without notice.
