I’m out of the Republican Party. I’m for small govt, America First and conservative values. I ran for office as a Republican, 20 of my last 20 donations are to Republicans- including $60k to Trump - but I’m out. Zero interest the Trump/ Lindsay Graham/ McConnell MIGA party.







"Prosecutors said that on Jan. 6, 2021, Johnston spent about 10 minutes in the lower west tunnel that leads into the Capitol, where some of the worst violence of the attack took place." "During that time, he: (1) helped at least four other rioters wash their eyes out after being sprayed with OC spray; (2) used a stolen United States Capitol Police riot shield to make a “shield wall” against the police inside the tunnel; (3) participated in “heave-ho” push that pinned and crushed MPD Officer Daniel Hodges against a door frame". I'm sorry, are the American people supposed to feel sorry for you because of how difficult the aftermath was for you from your husband's involvement in a massive attack on this country that was aimed at overturning the results of a lawfully certified election? Here's an idea: Don't participate in a domestic coup attempt. and you definitely aren't owed money by the American people. Go fuck yourself. nbcnews.com/politics/justi…








On a serious note, I am writing up my complaint against the DOJ and submitting it this week. Maybe I'll fly to DC and deliver it personally. My situation is different than most. The infamy gained from this photo will be in history books. What they did to me will have a generational effect on my family and their livelihoods. I was mocked and called a thief by Jimmy Kimmel, John Krasinski, and Jim Carey. My face and the accusation of being a thief was shared globally... for years. It still persists today harming my chances to win my local election or lead a normal life. Public school teachers told my children and their friends that their dad was a terrorist. My wife's reputation was dragged through the mud. Death threats caused her work to have to hire private security. USF denied my reentry into college. I had to fight to get my guns rights back. My children and myself were subjected to additional screenings by the TSA. My federal probation officer tried to stop me from speaking out on @Timcast warning that more death threats might come if I choose to talk. My attorney fees were 100k, I was fined 5k and I lost five years of my life to date fighting the lies they told about me. We spent an additional 150k in publicity trying to clear my name and restore my reputation. The DOJ could've chosen to release the evidence clearing my name but withheld it. They maliciously charged me with felony theft. We lost things that can never be restored but if they choose to do the right thing and restore the J6ers, we can finally finish setting things right.






Jim Dolan's Madison Square Garden continues to ban lawyers they don't like. The latest: an attorney who represents a NYPD cop. The cop was working off-duty at MSG, got involved in an altercation, and was (allegedly) hospitalized for spinal injuries. He's now banned.
