Two More Proud Boys Arrested in 1/6 Trump Terrorist Attack on US Capitol, Communications Leaders

Federal court documents allege that one of two men recently arrested in connection with the Jan. 6 assault on the U.S. Capitol communicated in advance with a Proud Boys leader, pointing to a wider organizational footprint in the execution of the effort to overwhelm the Capitol and prevent transfer of the presidency from Donald Trump to Joe Biden.
Ronald Loehrke, 30, was arrested today in Cummings, Ga. and charged with obstruction of law enforcement, unlawful entry on restricted buildings and grounds, and violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds, according to the government. James Haffner, 53, was arrested in South Dakota on Wednesday, on the same complaint. He faced the same charges, along with an additional charge of assaulting, resisting or impeding certain officers.
The two men marched with the Proud Boys and were part of the mob that overwhelmed US Capitol police officers during the initial breach at the northwest pedestrian path. The government alleges that shortly after the crowd broke through the police line, Loehrke helped another rioter over the barricade and then waved protesters towards the Capitol. As thousands of rioters surged over a toppled fence, a statement of offenses in the case alleges that Loehrke and Haffner made their way to a line of officers equipped with riot gear at the west plaza outside the Capitol.
According to the document, Loehrke chastised the other rioters for allowing themselves to be "stopped by twenty-five officers."

"Don't back down, patriots!" Loehrke reportedly shouted while Haffner stood nearby. "The whole f*cking world is watching. Stand the f*ck up today!"
The statement of offense indicates that Loehrke and Haffner then made their way to the east side of the Capitol, potentially indicating a broader coordinated strategy to breach the building from multiple sides. Several members of the Proud Boys, who are charged with conspiracy, ascended the scaffolding stairs.

So enjoyable to see all these Trump supporters getting jailed and then locked up.
Love how they sit in jail for 7-8 months before their trail even begins.
