A lawyer representing one of the Proud Boys members on trial for seditious conspiracy is asking a federal judge to throw out the case due to prosecutors' failure to include "plainly exculpatory" US Capitol security footage aired on Tucker Carlson's show. Billionaire Elon Musk showed sympathy for Jacob Chansley, one of the rioters, by tweeting to his 130 million followers to "Free Jacob Chansley". It is yet to be seen if the judge will agree with the lawyer's request.
