12/ Jacob Chansley aka the Viking Guy is perhaps the most famous Capitol protester for his outlandish outfit is perhaps the most curious protester arrested by authorities as he supports organic food, BLM, QAnon, climate change, and Trump...
13/ Shortly after his arrest we learn that Jacob is a fervent climate activist and organic food aficionado. Once in jail, he began a three-day hunger strike demanding that he be provided an ALL organic diet. The court granted his request and he's eating healthy now.

20/ When asked if he was with Antifa (as well as BLM) he stated, “Am I anti-fascist? We all are anti-fascist. And that’s what we should all strive for being. I have my own organization, Insurgence USA, and that’s what it is for. That’s really what it is.”
21/ At the end of the day, John Sullivan says that only one other member of his BLM-affiliated group broke into the Capitol pretending to be Trump supporters. Sullivan was released without charges...
