The former Proud Boys chairman wasn't present at the Capitol attack, but prosecutors said he acted as "a general rather than a soldier."

Is this the "find out" that I hear happens after the "fuck around?"
- He just found out how long his Find Out stage will be!

Sucks to suck

Now comes the part where we throw our heads back and laugh. Ready?
- Ready

OTOH, as a prominent neo-Nazi he'll probably have a lot of friends there, both among the inmates and the guards - he's going to be the private cell / loyal underlings / anybody who messes with you gets beat up type of prisoner.
- Definitely a possibility. But surely there are some guards who don't take well to the assault on the Capitol Police.

🤣

Enjoy, hope he takes some remedial civics lessons and cult deprogramming classes. He'll have lord of time to do so.
