Enjoy this bizarre video from CPAC of a man pretending to be a weeping J6 rioter in prison [1]
['Jennifer Sandlin']
Date: 2022-08-05
Check out this insane booth at CPAC, where a man sits in a 'jail cell' weeping, and where visitors/viewers don earphones and listen to "harrowing testimony from people arrested for participating in the January 6 insurrection. So now they're using emotionally graphic 'performance art' to garner sympathy?
Hello I would like to share with you the most astonishing thing I have ever seen
At this CPAC booth you receive a silent disco headset that plays harrowing testimony from people arrested for participating in J6
Instead of dancing, you stand around and watch this guy cry pic.twitter.com/cin6F5zDhz — Laura Jedeed (@LauraJedeed) August 5, 2022
Unbelievable (and yet not)! Laura Jedeed tweeted a video of the booth, along with this explanation:

What I need you to understand is that I stood here for about half an hour yesterday and this guy NEVER broke character
He wept sitting on the bench
He wept sitting on the floor
