UPDATE from a sedition hunter #3. One year out and at least 31 of the 130+ individuals I submitted information on have been arrested. They face over 200 federal charges combined, and three have been convicted or pled guilty. Discussion
One year ago I was watching in horror just like most of you, as sore losers decided to do what they could to larp a revolution and topple our democratic process. How fun!
Being a bit of a psycho myself, and feeling personally attacked, I went to work. I started backing up videos that showed individuals committing coordinated acts of violence. I focused primarily on the West Tunnel brawl for the first week.
By January 15th I had submitted over 50 separate profiles to the FBI. They all included clean shots of faces, timestamped acts of violence, and I cross referenced those against other videos.
When an assault on an officer occurred, I’d work to establish their name and badge number, as well as a timestamp so they could quickly find the footage on their own body cameras.
I admit that I became a bit obsessed, in an unhealthy fashion. But it really felt like the bottom was falling out of the whole country and I wanted to do whatever I could.
I’ve had over a dozen calls with members of the Joint Terrorism Task Force, the Capitol Police, and a few Special Agents around the country. Each have expressed what seemed like genuine gratitude for my efforts. Some have told me “you have literally built the case for me and done my job.”
During the second week after the attack I focused on a two hour long uncut raw video of a man who entered the capitol. I mapped his movements, timestamped his video, and built a model where I could jump to other videos taken in the capitol at the same time to see other angles.
I’m not going to say much about that because I suspect much bigger things to come from that work that involve groups of former military guys with a plan.
I am so saddened, though not shocked, by the tone change from the political right. The night of the 6th I had a moment of hope thinking we might finally come together to root out this rising tide of fascist tendencies. Wrong.
All in all I keep tabs on the cases that are pending and read all the court documents. I sit in anticipation about folks I really want to see have the book thrown at them. I work hard to share updates with my networks, and to keep the conversation about this event alive.
Things to consider:
We’re getting more and more answers by the day about the planning that went into this, the cogs of the machine. It seems to be becoming clear that this was intended as a reichtags fire and that the Trump team wanted to us the national guard to justify invoking the insurrection act.
That would have been magnitudes worse that what we can imagine. I think this article is a must read. https://www.justsecurity.org/79623/crisis-of-command-the-pentagon-the-president-and-january-6/
If and when you meet with people who deny the reality of the 6th, start by asking if they support police? They will say yes. Ask who hurt cops at the capitol, they will say ANTIFA. Ask them if any trump supporters participated in violence. They will say no. Then show them uncut west tunnel footage. Make them watch. Ask where the antifa are. Point them out. Everyone there who has been charged is a proven trumper. They are violently attacking police to gain entry.
They still won’t agree with you. But the seeds of doubt will have been planted and watered.
Don’t let up folks. Don’t let up. Vote Vote Vote. Stump for people who don’t deny reality. Lastly, be decent to each other.
EDIT: Also thanks to the mod team for adding me to your ranks.
EDIT 2: Ah yes, the first person has reported me for being suicidal, must be heading to the front page. Thank you all for the kind words of support.
EDIT 3: a great many people have asked to send me money for my efforts. Thank you, but respectfully, no. I’m doing this out of duty. But, if you are interested in supporting something I support, make a donation to No Kid Hungry Charity navigator in honor of “BOMP” which is an acronym I use for Bring Out More Potential. Thank you kindly.
EDIT 4: HOLY CRAP I woke up this morning to over a dozen messages of folks donating to No Kid Hungry. Over $1,000. Thank you all so much.

I’m trying to share that article as much as possible. Trump alone is harmless, he lacks work ethic and follow through. He was dangerous because he empowered driven grifters to do what they pleased. Flynn and Stone are neck deep in this. Their pardons, and Trump and the republican parties subversion of the process of justice directly led to this coup attempt.
The journalist who wrote this did a superb job sourcing the pieces and I suspect that we’re about to see this start to trickle out into the mainstream.

u/caul_of_the_void Jan 07 '22
I've seen it argued, and I believe this is true, that his pardons of people like Stone, Flynn, and Bannon owed less to any kind of sense of loyalty and paying them back for what they'd already done, but more that it meant they were then free to do more illegal and immoral things to help him in the future.
And the way it worked out, I'd say that's absolutely what's going on. These people are still out there plotting and scheming. It's all they know, and until they're stopped, that's what they'll continue to do.

u/DixieWreckedJedi Jan 07 '22
I think the Stone commutation in particular was mostly issued for purely selfish reasons; Trump’s handlers knew the political optics were atrocious, but Stone knows where the bodies are buried, and is exactly the type of quintessential ratfucker who would squeal to save his own ass, so Trump really had no choice but to take the political hit for the blatantly corrupt commutation of his sentence after Stone coordinated with Wikileaks/Russia and lied to Congress for Trump’s benefit.

u/Defenestresque Jan 07 '22 edited Jan 07 '22
Very, very few things shock me anymore but that article clearly lays out how close the U.S. was to having military troops in Washington, deciding whose orders they were to follow. It always gives me a jolt when I remember how the outcomes of major historical events end up teetering on the edge until just a tiny handful of people push them to land one way or another.
Edid to add two additional thoughts:
Close observers of the events of Jan. 6 have mainly posited two reasons for the delay in mobilizing the Guard. The first explanation is one of bureaucratic failures or managerial weaknesses in the military’s procedures that day. A second explanation is that the military was deliberately serving Trump’s effort to interfere with the election by withholding assistance.
We identify a third explanation: that senior military officials constrained the mobilization and deployment of the National Guard to avoid injecting federal troops that could have been re-missioned by the President to advance his attempt to hold onto power.
A great reminder that jumping to early conclusions is often not a desirable habit. (For those reading this who have not read the article, it makes a very convincing case for the third option being a strong possibility)
Finally,
According to one account, Trump wanted the military to “beat the fuck out of” Black Lives Matter demonstrators. “Just shoot them,” he apparently told Milley and his Attorney General, William Barr.
The damage this man has done to the office alone is incalculable.

I’m all about backing people into a logical/cognitive dissonance corner. We have to grapple with the fact that our nation has around 40,000,000 highly dangerous people who are ready for war. They want and crave it, lust for it almost. I believe mass de-radicalization is needed and the government isn’t equipped to handle it. Therefore, decentralizing a proven approach seems to be the best way to approach the problem.

Thanks so much for your contribution. You're a true patriot. I have a ton of respect for Americans like you.
Have you seen the video that just released today of the Qanon shaman being interviewed from jail? It's very depressing that he's essentially taken absolutely no accountability and has in fact doubled down and is still defending Trump and clearly a very brainwashed, radicalized Trump cultist. Not even a 4 year sentence made him wake up.

Hey! I’m a video editor, photographer, and landscaper. So it was my down season, as well as my skillset. To be honest, the unhealthy part was how obsessed I got, particularly how little sleep I got.

I'm now trying to envision the most ridiculous possible photogrammetry/motion tracking software (the 3d artists use it all the time to extract camera motion from untracked video)...
Do that with ALL the cell phone video, and you could make a 3d model of the capitol with every camera tracked in real 3d space. Hard part is removing the moving occlusions (people walking) so that the known stable geometry gets tracked.
...then apply that same model and extract every photo from a given moment in time and perform 3d photogrammetry to reconstruct a low-poly 3d scene from individual video frames - different angles of the same 3d spacetime = 3d model...do this for every slice of time, and you have a 3d recreation of the events.
...now I want to learn how to do all the things I just mentioned.
49
u/sherlock_at_home Sedition Hunter Jan 06 '22
And 30,000 terabytes later you’ve got yourself a model!
I’ll tell you how I did my version of this. I downloaded the publicly available maps of all three floors of the capitol. Then I used the two hour video to establish the entrench used and oriented the map that way. I put a dot on the map every 15 seconds and connected the dots. At one point in this video, the dude walks by a TV and the time is visible in the bottom corner. I then took that time, marked it, and subtracted the run time so far from that time to establish the exact time the video started.
From there I could cross associate videos that happened within that two hour window, and if I saw someone doing something fucked up in one video, I could jump to a video in the direction they moved to get more.
This is also how I got so many clean face photos of masked attackers in the west tunnel. I found one guy who stood outside the tunnel for 25 mins taping everyone who came out. They would get gassed, shift the exhausted front fighters out to the back, and as the exited the tunnel remove their mask. I’d grab that image, the. Go back in time inside the tunnel and match the clothing/tattoos/etc.

u/sherlock_at_home Sedition Hunter Jan 07 '22
I didn’t add the best detail. As they exited, eyes running, bruised and beaten, the guy videoing would say “WHAT’S YOUR NAME AND WHERE ARE YOU FROM, PATRIOT??”
And over 15 people answered. I submitted all 15, with loads of info. 13/15 have been arrested already.
I archived it and as I was watching that video, which only had 3 views, I was squealing with delight shouting “you poor stupid bastards. Look at these dumb bastards.” I made my wife come and watch.

There is software out there that can pretty much do that. I can't remember what show/movie had it and it was called Kaleidescope. When I was playing around looking at future and edge tech, a company had that software that partially did this was called Kaleidescope. The software I saw could fill in the blanks if there was a blind spot but would highlight it to show that it was not actual footage. A friend of mine got into 3d courtroom recreations and some of the stuff he was talking about was amazing and that was 15yrs ago. It is kind of like creating a video-game where they have the actors with the pingpong balls on their joints and do motion capture in front of a green screen. I am generally against being a surveillance state like China or Israel but in this case, I am glad that these idiots were surveilling themselves for us.

In Mexican Catholic culture there is a tradition of putting a sponge cake on the casket/body of a recently deceased person. The cake absorbs the sins of that person. The family then pays someone to eat those cakes and thus, take on their sins.
This person is called the Sin Cake Eater. I was a bit of a Sin Cake Eater for jan 6. I took on more than my fair share that day, and the days since. But that’s what we each do sometimes.

I want to thank you. This was a scary event for US democracy. It was a straight up coup attempt.
The rioters were not patriots - far from it. I'm a member of the DAR, and my ancestor was a real patriot who fought a in Virginia during the Revolutionary War.
I too watched the videos but don't have face matching skills. I did what I could: sharing the FBI wanted postings to my FB and Twitter feeds.
Also this riot/coup was scary for residents of the area. The rioters stayed in hotels and Airbnbs and started fights - especially with people of color - before and days after the protest. Imagine staying inside your home and being afraid to walk your dog because these thugs feel free to come to DC, riot, and start trouble. Living in fear - not cool.

Thank you, actual patriot.
I live four blocks from the Capitol and work next door. I’ve always identified as Very left / near anarchist; so much so that I was on a list for YEARS after 9/11. I was here protesting Citizens United and WTO way back when in the 90s in HS and was told I was an alarmist. Same during the 2nd Bush years. Yet here we are. We were sent home from work when the bombs were found that day. I masked up and biked down to the Reflecting Pool. I’ve never been more disgusted. 6 mos earlier I was in the streets for BLM. They came down like a ton of bricks. Disappearing people courtesy of a secret federal force. Dusting with helicopters. Full ammo. I live next to the FBI field office and they had snipers on the roof and took over our whole block w a mobile command unit. Yet here we are with an actual white supremacy coup and we opened the doors. I always knew but WOW. It’s time to embrace the original idea of our nation. We get to choose our own adventure.
No resurfacing. The structure is ROTTEN. The people United, will Never be divided. We can create the world of our dreams. There is no life without healthcare.

I’d encourage you to think of this. It’s not just right-wing madness, that’s really a symptom of something else missing. I think worldliness, individuality, and change are three of the biggest things missing. Empower those.

I was arguing with someone on reddit because they felt that 1/6 wasn't planned. I brought up the PowerPoint presentation they made and the person wouldn't google it because "why would I look up something if I don't believe it". I posted a link to an article explaining it and even then they took it with a grain of salt. Then there is the classic "but BLM was bad too".
I'm so tired of people making excuses. It's really frustrating and if the ones in denial won't change their mind even if you shove facts in their face I don't know what else we can do.

Riots are bad. Easy sentence for me to say. Riots that are planned to over through the certification of a vote and functionally end america as we know are…….worse.

How does one help you and JTTF find these people?
Obviously tracking movements of people through videos but how do you know which people have been identified so you're not wasting your time following movements of someone already tracked?
Also, in my mind, I see this 2d floor plan of the capitol with camera movements mapped out, and a user can click the individual camera to see an in person look of video of the events. But then, as you're watching, if another video timestamp overlaps in the same viewing angle, the video goes multi-screen showing you multiple angles of the same area at the same time. I have no idea how to make this but it seems like once the leg work of putting clips into one repository and marking them on the map is done, tracking could be done much more efficiently by anyone at any time.
edit: super rudimentary but like this: https://imgur.com/a/td31NEo Yellow numbered camera is the camera you're following while red numbered cameras are cameras that have timestamp overlaps in the same location. All other cameras would follow the same pattern when viewing. One could then link cameras together by timestamp ie 1, 5, 7, 13 are all on loop 1. Cameras 2, 4, 16, 25 are loop 2. etc etc etc.

Do you know if anyone has scoured footage from Jan 6 to see if the bomb suspect showed up to watch? I can't imagine this person would be passionate enough to do what they did but not stick around for the president's speech and following protest. I'd imagine they could be wearing the same clothes as the night before, perhaps at least just the same shoes.
Lastly, thank you for all you've done to help bring justice to our broken nation

I can’t thank you enough for the work you’ve done. ❤️
These people must be held accountable. They should all serve a minimum of 6mos in jail, imo - increased from there depending on the individual crimes.
Thank you again. We are all in your debt.

Thank you! I just want to see people face truth and justice. I don’t want random innocent people to be tried. I want these folks to own that they got played, and let themselves do terrible things as a result.
