Fanatical Republican Extremist of the Day: Matthew Brackley [1]
['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']
Date: 2023-09-01
Welcome to what is the 1234th original profile here at “Fanatical Republican Extremist of the Day”, where we’ll be discussing Matthew Brackley, a 2022 candidate for District 24 of the Maine State Senate, where he challenged the Democratic Majority Leader, Eloise Vitelli, and managed to get 42% of the vote.
Eight months after the election where he was touting Donald Trump’s Big Lie and running on “election integrity”, in July of 2023, Brackley was arrested for having stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6th, and prosecutors say based on cellphone GPS, he was definitely one of the domestic terrorists that stormed the building. There’s also camera footage of him in the hallways and... well, he allegedly assaulted members of the Capitol Police, so it seems he might be looking at some significant prison time before he can make another attempt at office in 2024.
Let’s just be grateful he didn’t defy the odds and end up in office, where he could have done a lot more damage to the state of Maine. This should be the only time we ever have to profile him, as it seems almost a lock he’s going to jail...
