The 'QAnon Shaman,' Jacob Chansley, who stormed the Capitol in horns, pleads guilty to a felony for obstructing Electoral College proceedings

The so-called"QAnon Shaman" who stormed the US Capitol in a horned bearskin outfit pleaded guilty Friday to a felony for obstructing the Electoral College proceedings on January 6.

The defendant, Jacob Chansley of Arizona, is a well-known figure in the QAnon movement. He went viral after the January 6 attack because of the bizarre outfit he wore while rummaging through the Capitol. He made his way to the Senate dais that was hastily vacated earlier by Vice President Mike Pence -- someone Chansley falsely claimed was a"child-trafficking traitor."He pleaded guilty Friday during a virtual hearing in DC District Court.

He pleaded guilty to one of the most serious charges and could face a maximum of 20 years in prison, though his lack of a criminal record means he'll likely receive much less. As part of the plea agreement, Chansley agreed to pay $2,000 in restitution for damage to the Capitol. He could also face a fine of up to $250,000.

Wow, this is great news, 2 days after the current administration leaves hundreds of American citizens stranded in a country now run by a terror group who flew planes into buildings 20 years ago. What a joke.

Trump should get twice that and make sure it’s a felony charge so this joke of a past president never can run for president ever

He pledged guilty for being a WDF?

Wonderful

all staged like in the movie, even masonic characters the same. the scenario must be realized...

WAIT I thought insurrection and SEDITION were what they were doing? LOL guess not

Don't forget to preface other names with 'so-called'. You know like 'BLM' group.

Do those horns come off?

it's cool if you raid a store during BLM but uoi are f*cked if you make those lords in the capital hill scared

That picture! “Trump’s Campaign managers give a charming rendition of John Lennon’s timeless classic, “Jealous Guy”.

That is not he should be charged for. Please throw the entire collection of books, the whole volume of encyclopedias.

EXACTLY EVERYTHING I SAID ABOUT THIS SO CALLED JUSTICE SYSTEM...ITS A PRIVILEGE SYSTEM BELIEVE DAT

All these light charges/sentences help the organizers. All they did was incite trespassing. SMH

Because Communist News Network could not find any real news to report!

He must have decided that he liked the food. No, I’m sired he got a sweetheart sentence.

I hear people in the prisons there love trump supporters have fun.

EVERYTHING ABOUT THE CHARGES IS BOGUS;HOW CAN IT REALLY B CALLED AN INSURRECTION & NOBODY IS CHARGED WITH THE ACTUAL CHARGE...PLZZZZ

Give him 30 years

Four years is not enough.

should have been given a medal

How many years?

No vegan jail food?

vui ve biet quan tam chia se va song ti469nh cam

He looks horny.

USA 🇺🇸 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

He's accepted responsibility for his actions. Why not now honor his wishes to not associate him with Q anymore? Really shitty.

LockHimUp

So he gets a 10 dollar fine and 30 mins social work

🤣😂

Good

BLM did worst you Americans

We got you by your horns! Never try that again

A minute of self glory n high brought him to his knees

You hate to see a life go wrong. He should have stayed with Lion-o and the rest of the Thundercats

What about the police who opened the doors and incurred everyone to come in

morgfair What does Q think?

What a weird thing to pick up from the gift shop after your tourist visit.

Has anyone actually been tried for the insurrection yet? That was the original claim.

news break: GQP t-rump NOW HIRING: ' IN NEED OF NEW SHAMAN TO LEAD MANY TO THE ORANGE FIGURE FOR WORSHIP'. Anyone looking for a new gig?

On the bright side, he's finally moving out of his Mom's house.

So much for the 'insurrection'. No one's getting charged with insurrection or coup or any other serious charges. It's all trespassing, obstruction and disruption with light sentences. So far Trump might be guilty of inciting his base to disrupt or obstruct, that's it

One less voter, since he a convicted felon can’t own a gun or vote. Wheels of justice turning

He may have mental health issues but I bet you his ass is not crazy enough to storm another federal government building. Trust me, his being locked up gave him cognitive clarity in alot of ways. Lol. hesnotthatcrazy

😂😂😂😂😂😂🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Bright future of America “the Beautiful”

Good now get Trump to plead guilty

Sounds like a gross over charge.

Lets see how his schtick plays out in prison. Get ready for drop the soap time in the Big House.

Now, forever known as the 'QAnon Shaman Felon'

Maybe Zucker can hire him as a political analyst...

He still won’t get any time for a felony. Damn shame

How come trump or the maga group bail this man out of jail?

One of MoBrooks buddies.

Felony? He disrupted democracy!

So Treasonous activity was off the table? They are all fortunate it's the USA not China or Korea where flogging, life imprisonment or hanging would be the sentence

QUE MAS PRUEBAS DE HORROR CRIMINAL Y ESTOS REPUBOCANOS SUPREMACIA BLANCA NO LO ACEPTAN Y ACUSAN CON CHANTAGES CONTRA LA GENTE QUE TESTIFIQUE CONTRA ESTOS TRAIDORES A LA MAJESTAD DEL CONGRESO

Never visit these 10 Countries in 2021 😱🧐

Good... even if he plead and received a reduced sentance... hopefully he turned good evidence in return so prosecutions can get the leaders that made this atrocity happen.

Precedence has been set now...

Now he can’t vote 😂

why aren't these people locked up and the key thrown away already.

YM SABATAGEING FOOD NOW ON

Nobody cares

Who's the magatubby sidekick on his left?

The charge should actually be Treason, but then again America’s legal system was specifically engineered to to cater for and protect lunatics

Attempt to over through the United States of America and only face a maximum of 20 years and possible fines up to $250k. Wow 😯 I expected more.

The justice system in the U.S. is a total JOKE! No wonder there was a JOKER in charge for 4 yrs.

he needs mental health help in addition to prision time!

And gets released. Time served!! Not because he deserves to be set free. It's because he's a WHITE MALE in America.. But I could be wrong.. 👀

What about breaking and entering a federal building carrying a lethal weapon? I can literally see the blade on the top of his spear on every single picture of him during the Jan 6 insurrection

Already served 8 months and recommendation 3-5 years.

Laughable. And cnn demonized half of the electorate over this. A network full of hate and anger.

Rediculous

His sentence needs to be a long one to deter others from thinking of impeding the work of the Electoral College, and by extension democracy in America.

His pretend shaman lifestyle didn't go as planned

Best part ... he can no longer vote.

He’s like a big cow ?!🤔😏😂😂😂😂 Mooooo 🐂 a good move !😎👍👀

Crazy white dude murderers get all the best media profiles. What a completely horse shit story. Your gonna tell people this guy murdered others in the name of Quanon. I’m sorry but seriously.
