On the Conservative Political Motion Convention this week in Dallas, attendees can gaze upon a weird exhibit wherein an actor, pretending to be a Jan. 6 rioter, sobs in a jail cell.
As a result of the “f**okay your emotions” crowd apparently has a smooth spot for individuals the Justice Division considers home terrorists.
Journalist Laura Jedeed documented the confounding MAGA sales space Friday and described is as “probably the most astonishing factor” she’s ever seen.
“At this CPAC sales space you obtain a silent disco headset that performs harrowing testimony from the individuals arrested for taking part in J6,” she tweeted. “As a substitute of dancing, you stand round and watch this man cry.”

In a outstanding little bit of irony, the exhibit is the brainchild of Brandon Straka, a conservative influencer and Jan. 6 defendant who offered “important info” to the FBI as a part of a plea deal that stored him out of jail ― and presumably landed others there.
“What I would like you to grasp is that I stood right here for about half an hour yesterday and this man NEVER broke character,” Jedeed added, seeming genuinely impressed by the actor’s dedication to the function.
“He wept sitting on the bench. He wept sitting on the ground. He tallied days on a chalkboard arrange for the aim.”
Straka’s group didn’t reply to an e-mail looking for readability on the exhibit’s which means. Presumably, although, it wasn’t a real expression of regret for taking part in a violent assault on the U.S. Capitol and a tacit admission that actions have penalties.
