be blinded to the obvious because there's something else going on. Basically that's how all magic tricks work. A magic trick takes your brain to the place where you can't solve the trick. Your brain is just working on the wrong problem. Here's what I think and this is just wild speculation. That we've been served up for three weeks now stories about dead babies because of the Gaza situation right? Every hour on the hour for three weeks I've heard about a dead baby. So then some data comes out that says there's an uptick in dead babies in the United States. Could that blind the people involved to the point where they could only see the data as more dead babies because they've been fed more dead babies, more dead babies, highest rate of dead babies, so many dead babies, all dead babies, dead babies, dead babies. Oh here's some data. Sure enough uptick in dead babies. Write the story, write the story. And did they actually write the story while looking at the data they showed that there was no uptick that was unusual? There is an uptick but not an unusual one. That's actually possible in the hypnotist world. If you had a hypnotist filter on the world. I'm not saying that's what happened. I'm saying it would be perfectly within the normal realm of behavior that somebody would be cognitively blinded and not even notice that the graph didn't match the headline. Now I'll be embarrassed by tomorrow because by tomorrow the Wall Street Journal will explain why I read the graph wrong but at the moment I'm just confused. So you should wait for the other side of the story. This is sort of the documentary problem. You're hearing me make a claim but you've not heard the Wall Street Journal saying Scott you're looking at the graph wrong or you know maybe you interpreted it wrong or something. So just consider I could be wrong about this. Wait till you hear the other side if there is one.

All right I saw a lawyer for some of the January 6 people. Somebody who goes by Shipwrecked Crew on the X platform and is apparently a lawyer with some J6 clients. And he makes this claim. He or she makes this claim. I have two new clients charged with J6 crimes. Neither went inside the Capitol and there are no allegations of any interference with the police. I'm not aware of any previous cases where defendants were charged just for being present outside the building and watching. If anyone knows of such a case mention it in the comments. If this is a new standard for the Department of Justice there are thousands of potential defendants still on charge.

Now question number one is this an accurate description of the situation? Well remember this is coming from a lawyer who is a proponent for clients so the lawyer is going to put it in the most minimalistic description of what happened. But let's say that the main claim is true that they didn't go inside and they didn't interfere with police. What could they have been doing that would get them charged? What you can't, you can't be in the general area of other people doing a crime. Inciting beca
