"Often what is streamed is scripted and much like comedy, the creative content cannot be taken as real life in every instance," Gionet's lawyer wrote in the filing on the eve of the hearing. Underscoring the surreal overlay of contrived drama created by a man facing federal charges for illegally entering the Capitol building and engaging in violent and disorderly conduct while allegedly remarking, "1776 will commence again," Gionet's lawyer suggested that the court not take the content on his client's stream at face value, noting that it's a source of revenue.

"We had to pull over because he was hitting me and we were about to crash the car," Gionet told a police officer who met the trio to respond to the streamer's call to report an assault. The driver, another streamer named Woozuh, can be taking his eyes off the road as he turns to observe the scuffle.
