A Utah man arrested for his part in the rioting at the U.S. Capitol admitted that he was not a Trump supporter but in fact an anti-Trump activist.
John Earle Sullivan told KUTV after the riot that he
is the founder of Insurgence USA, and that he does not align with the president
politically. He said that he founded Insurgence USA after the killing of George
Floyd while in police custody in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
The mission statement of the group on their
website said that they sought "the unification of our nation because a
people united will never be divided."
Sullivan told KUTV that he was in the
Capitol in order to document several protests. But he also admitted that he
entered into the Capitol building through a window.
Once inside, federal prosecutors allege that
he shouted for more violence.
The affidavit for Sullivan's arrest documents his
actions on the day of the rioting from the footage that Sullivan himself took
and posted. It claims that he encouraged the violence as he documented it:
After the crowd broke through the last
barricade, and as SULLIVAN and the others approach the Capitol Building,
SULLIVAN can be heard in the video saying at various points: 'There are so many
people. Let's go. This s--- is ours! F--- yeah,' 'We accomplished this s---. We
did this together. F--- yeah! We are all a part of this history,' and 'Let's
burn this s--- down.
In video
obtained from Insurgence USA by KSTU-TV, Sullivan
says to the camera that he is a supporter of Black Lives Matter.
After the rioting, Sullivan was invited onto CNN to discuss what he
witnessed at the U.S. Capitol.
Sullivan was arrested and charged with
entering a restricted building or grounds, "civil disorders," and
violent entry or disorderly conduct.
He is scheduled to appear before court on
Friday in Utah.

BLM instigator of
Capitol riots, John Earle Sullivan, arrested
By JD Rucker | January 14, 2021
The Utah Black Lives Matter "activist" has been bragging about his involvement in instigating the Capitol riots. Now, he's been arrested.
The deadly riots at
the Capitol last week that have sparked Big Tech cancelations and prompted
another impeachment of President Trump were instigated in part by Black Lives
Matter and Antifa “activists,” according to multiple media reports. One of the
highest profile suspects, John Earle Sullivan from Utah, has been arrested.
He was there and documented the murder of Ashli Babbitt, who was shot in the neck by law enforcement. His arrest warrant, available here, lists three reasons for probable cause:
1. committed or
attempted to commit, any act to obstruct, impede, or interfere with any fireman
or law enforcement officer lawfully engaged in the lawful performance of his
official duties incident to and during the commission of a civil disorder which
in any way or degree obstructs, delays, or adversely affects the performance of
any federally protected function;
2. did knowingly enter
or remain in any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority, or
did knowingly, and with intent to impede or disrupt the orderly conduct of
Government business or official functions, engage in disorderly or disruptive
conduct, and
3. did willfully and
knowingly engage in disorderly or disruptive conduct, at any place in the
Grounds or in any of the Capitol
Buildings with the intent to impede, disrupt, or disturb the orderly conduct of
a session of Congress or either House of Congress, or the orderly conduct in
that building of any deliberations of either House of Congress. Specifically,
on or about January 6, 2021, SULLIVAN knowingly and willfully joined a crowd of
individuals who forcibly entered the U.S. Capitol and impeded, disrupted, and
disturbed the orderly conduct of business by the United States House of
Representatives and the United States Senate.
Mainstream media reports have, from the start, claimed that the riots were initiated entirely by supporters of President Trump. Moreover, they have gone so far as to doctor a video to support the contention of Democrats and even some Republicans that the President sparked the attack by calling on his supporters to storm the Capitol.

According to Information Liberation, Sullivan was filmed instigating the attack on the Capitol.
One America News reporter Jack Posobiec said on Twitter, “According to the FBI, anarchist John Sullivan told police officers to stand down in the Speaker’s Lobby, then agitated the crowd to attack the doors and windows while he filmed. Moments later Ashley Babbitt was shot and killed.”
Sullivan was a guest
on CNN after the riots that left between four and six people dead. The
circumstances surrounding the deaths of two police officers are still being
investigated. Some media outlets have reported that they did not die as a
result of injuries sustained at the riots on January 6.
This story will be
buried by mainstream media and suppressed by Big Tech. The arrest of John Earle
Sullivan, a known Black Lives Matter leader and provocateur, belies the
accepted narrative that Trump-supporters alone caused the riots.
