      What?

      Pretty sure he livestreamed stealing a flag from a historic church and then burning it on their steps… Then he came back to DC and kept announcing where he was on Twitter.

      The gun magazine he just had on him, and because he’s a dumbass he said he only had it to sell to someone.

      You make it out to be a brilliant police sting, when it was the bare minimum of competence.
