One of the most media personalities of the assault on the US Capitol, Jacob Chansley, known as the ‘QAnon Shaman’, has declared that he wants to run for election to the United States Congress. He is the man behind the buffalo antlers, hairy, bare chest, and somewhat peculiar clothing.
He himself announced it in a statement in which he made his presentation with the Liberal Party of the state of Arizona official.
Currently, the party position belongs to Debbie Lesko, a member of the United States House of Representatives representing Arizona’s 8th congressional district since 2018, a position that Chansley is opposing. Lesko already announced that she would not run for re-election when her term ends in January 2025 and that would open the doors to Phoenix.
Also known as The Wolf of Yellowstone, the self-proclaimed shaman went viral for wearing buffalo antlers on his head and trying to prevent the inauguration of Joe Biden, the country’s current president, in the protests promoted by Donald Trump following the results of the elections. elections at the end of 2020.
During the assault on the Capitol, Chansley was arrested and sentenced to three years in prison for his actions, a sentence that he managed to reduce for alleging mental health problems and for “only following the president’s guidelines.”
