Welcome to Left-Nazi Amerika - Texas teen snitch turns dad in to the FBI - Liberals Give Him Rewards

"A Texas teenager has turned his father in to the FBI for taking part in the Capitol Hill riot, and pocketed tens of thousands of dollars from liberal admirers in the process.
When Jackson Reffitt’s father returned to the family home in Wylie, Texas, after the pro-Trump riot on Capitol Hill earlier this month, Jackson claimed that he warned his son to keep his mouth shut. “If you turn me in, you’re a traitor,” he reportedly said. “And you know what happens to traitors. Traitors get shot.”

However, Jackson had already reported the 48-year-old Guy Reffitt to the FBI, telling agents he thought his father was planning “something big” during the certification of election results at the capitol, per a New York Times article on Sunday. After the riot, Reffitt was identified in video footage from the Capitol, tracked down in Texas, and arrested, according to a sworn affidavit by an FBI agent.

Yes I'm the kid on cnn I'm sorry I probably won't get around to responding to everyone. My mom and my sisters are absolutely ruined about the news from what I did. This is the first they are hearing about my involvement in my dad's arrest. Please send them love in any form.

Guy Reffitt was charged with obstruction of justice and of knowingly entering a restricted building, though he claims he never actually entered the Capitol. Jackson Reffitt left his family home, and has since become something of a celebrity.

Turning in his father landed Reffitt interviews with CNN, Fox and the New York Times, with the CNN interview the first his family heard about his contact with the FBI. “My mom and my sisters are absolutely ruined about the news from what I did,” Reffitt tweeted on Saturday.

Apparently encouraged by his supporters, Reffitt set up a crowdfunding campaign, and after raising the donation limit several times has netted just under $87,000 in less than three days. This amount has paid for his university tuition, repaired his car, and purchased his dental insurance, Reffitt wrote on GoFundMe.

Praise has poured in from liberals, who applauded Reffitt’s “bravery” in snitching on his own father."

    He seemed surprised his mother was upset by what he did. My daughter in law would bake him some of her special chocolate chip cookies (with Exlax) in them. Of course she raised 2 boys and 2 girls and they are all sweet, well educated, loving young adults.

    And Joseph Stalin.
    We don't know what the father was doing (if anything) and the media will never publish anything that supports innocence.
    So far, it's just the son's affidavit claiming he 'thought his father was planning “something big” and claiming his father "warned his son to keep his mouth shut."
    We have seen the DeepState do this before, turning a family argument into an arrest of someone publishing the embarrassing truth.
    The JustUS Dept FBI only care about destroying anyone who supported Trump and/or criticizes the fedgov.

    Might makes right. The fed gov is utterly corrupt.
    The Just-US Department is one of the worst offenders and has completely perverted the concept of justice.

    Yes, Adolph would be very proud of this Hitler Youth! They'll probably devote a "60 Minute" segment to his "doing the right thing". Maybe he will receive a medal with one of those Obama insignias on it?

    Remember in 1984 when Winston's neighbor gets turned in by his kid and we see him being reeducated in Room 101. This reminds me of that.

    Also...I know a guy who went back to DC during the protest. Good guy. Can't reach him now. I'm concerned.

    Funny how a “sworn affidavit” led to an FBI investigation in this case.
    Do we still think Trump had control over his federal agencies?

    Words fail me. I seem to recall someone named Adolph Hitler who encouraged this sort of thing. Of course I don't approve of what the father was doing but it would appear he had a change of heart and did nothing.
