A Jan. 6 rioter who enlisted the help of Mormon lawmaker “friends” to get permission to attend the inauguration has been denied, along with a man from Maine who is accused of wielding a hockey stick and a bullhorn during the 2021 attack.

A Mississippi man who harassed cops with a flagpole was denied Thursday by a U.S. District Judge, a George W. Bush appointee.

Taylor ’s request presented the “narrow question’ of whether a person who conspired and acted to “thwart the peaceful transfer of power four years ago with incitement, threats, and weapons” should be granted special permission to attend the exact same event.

“The answer to that question is no,’ whether or not he is, generally speaking, a good person,” Lamberth concluded.
