Jake Lang, a pardoned January 6 rioter, posted a video of himself kicking down the sculpture at Minnesota’s capitol
The far-right influencer and US Senate candidate Jake Lang has been arrested after recording himself damaging an anti-ICE sculpture at Minnesota’s capitol amid the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency’s crackdown there.
On 5 February, Lang, who received a presidential pardon from Donald Trump over his role in the 6 January 2021 attack on the US Capitol, posted a video on X of himself kicking down the sculpture, which was made from ice – as in, frozen water. His efforts changed it from reading “Prosecute ICE” to “Pro ICE”, referring to the federal agency.
Local authorities arrested Lang that same day and jailed the Florida resident on suspicion of criminal damage to property, which is classified as a felony.
The video itself is fairly hilarious considering he posted it himself. I honestly thought it was an ai video made to make him look bad/troll him at first. From him stumbling over the blocks, to the babg like squeaks and grunts he makes while doing it, he comes off as soft as a wet dog turd.
These are not…competent people. In fact, until we get our collective shit together and start pushing back as a nation, our only hope is that they are ultimately too fucking stupid to fascism.
While they are spectacularly moronic, and predictably childish and incompetent, we need a better strategy than hoping they will defeat themselves.
But boy are they fucking dumb. It would be hilarious if actual civilization weren’t at stake.
You’re right, it would be alit funnier if it weren’t so depressing. I’m so tired of having our society run by the dumbest and most hateful people.😒
