1) Rachel Powell aka Rachel Marie Powell, Pennsylvania, sold cheese at a farmers’ market and worked in a book store, used a bullhorn during the riot to direct the crowd trying to gain control of the Capitol. Wearing a pink toque and a hooded black jacket with fur trim, Powell is seen on video giving very detailed instructions about the need to coordinate and the layout of the building; Powell on bullhorn tells rioters: "coordinate together if you are going to take this building" and they "have another window to break." Also carried an ice axe and wooden pole into the Capitol. Oct 2020 Powell posted: "I agree with the possibility of civil war happening. I can see that too. Unfortunately, the only way this is probably capable of being fixed is bloodshed because I’m not so sure our government can be fixed the political way anymore…"
Obstruction; Depredation of Government Property; Restricted Building or Grounds with a Dangerous Weapon; Restricted Building or Grounds; Violent Entry or Disorderly Conduct. She was seen using a large pipe as a ramming device to breach windows to gain access.
In a search of Powell’s home and car, agents found three "go bags" containing, among other things, ammunition, zip ties, rope, duct tape, knives, throwing stars, and two loaded magazines for an AK-47. They also turned up a number of cell phones that appeared to have been smashed to pieces in what prosecutors believe may have been an attempt by Powell to destroy evidence.

3) More on Rachel Powell … in court it was revealed that…she left her 8 kids home alone!! “The defendant abandoned her children and traveled to the District of Columbia to participate in an act of insurrection,” prosecutors wrote. “She came prepared, armed with earmuffs designed to muffle gunfire and wearing a jacket designed to conceal a weapon. Not content to peacefully demonstrate, she used a battering ram to break into the U.S. Capitol. In doing so, she put the lives of both law enforcement and rioters in jeopardy. Then, she directed her fellow rioters on how best to penetrate the Capitol. “coordinate together if you are going to take this building." By directly encouraging violence and destruction, the defendant fueled a situation that threatened the peaceful transfer of power in the United States.” She was still ***released to her home… https://www.thedailybeast.com/judge-tells-bullhorn-mom-rachel-powell-shes-so-unpatriotic-it-makes-my-straight-hair-curl Video of pink hat lady with coat hood up…

4) Powell wants out of her mask requirement. Last year, she wore a mesh mask, thinking she was a smart ass… and took a selfie. She apologized, but the court flet it was not genuine. https://twitter.com/ryanjreilly/status/1499525477639335937
Rachel Powell could give a shit about children or public health. Not even her own...
5) Filed to Powell’s case as she seeks more lenient release conditions: "In 2021, (Powell) shared custody of six minor children with her ex-husband. When the defendant left for Washington, D.C. to attend the events of January 6, 2021, she left her minor children at home, unattended." https://twitter.com/MacFarlaneNews/status/1533886372657889282
6) Oct 2020, Powell, 40 year old Mother of 8 who left her 6 minor children unattended to be at Jan 6 insurrection, posted she is basically famous… https://twitter.com/8w8h8y8/status/1533841382225620994
7) Rachel Powell has raised $12,118 on a right-wing crowdfunding site that says she "got caught up in the moment". Mother of 8 has issues with restraint!! https://twitter.com/MacFarlaneNews/status/1538657628666138625
8) Powell lawyer says she is having difficulty understanding the law and its implications in her case, yet, she is a mother of 8 who homeschooled her children … https://twitter.com/ryanjreilly/status/1582870724351787008
9) In the courtrooom for her verdict, "Powell was accompanied to court by her children, one of whom was wearing a red "MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN" hat in the courtroom. Powell had posted on social media that former President Donald Trump had given her child a MAGA hat." https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/justice-department/bullhorn-lady-capitol-found-guilty-jan-6-case-rcna94733
10) I had forgotten that she gave an interview to The New Yorker well before she was arrested and indicted, "She said that Rudy Giuliani, Trump’s personal attorney, had been a significant source of information, and that she had watched remarks he gave in Gettysburg, on November 25th, during a widely discredited state-senate committee hearing in which he and several witnesses made baseless claims of voter fraud. “That was pretty moving to me,” she said. “I learned a lot from Giuliani and people’s testimonies.” https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/a-pennsylvania-mothers-path-to-insurrection-capitol-riot
UPDATE 4
MAGA moron Rachel Powell is about to report to prison. She spoke to CNN last week. (I want to boycott then but this is what Americans are up against this year... morons who will 'crawl through glass' for LOSER45)
She says she was set-up and January 6 was a set-up and that she only broke that window because it was a set-up and someone put that climber's pick in her hand...
No, you ignorant insurrectionist lying bitch...NO!
Feel free to skip her little sob story and whininess and go straight to 6:45, where she is helping other "duped" insurrectionists use another weapon to break unto the Capitol.
