The QAnon Shaman Jacob Chansley Says His Actions Were Not an Attack on the US
March 4, 2021
The "QAnon Shaman," speaking from jail, told a 60 Minutes+ reporter during an exclusive interview that he did not believe his attacks on the U.S. Capitol were an attack on the country. Jacob Chansley was one of the nearly 300 rioters who were charged following the Jan. 6 siege on the capitol that forced the entire U.S. Senate to go into hiding. Chansley faces up to 20 years in prison, if he is convicted. He will appear Friday before a judge who will determine whether he is released pending trial.
