UPDATE: (October 2023) Since our original reporting on Rachel Powell the mother of eight was sentenced to 5 years in prison. This article was updated to reflect this.
Rachel Powell beats a window out at the US Capitol on January 6th.
The fake news mainstream media continues to replay their cherry-picked scenes from January 6th to push their lies on the American public. Not once in over two years has a major liberal news network reported on the truth on January 6, 2021.
Recently MSNBC rehashed video of J6er Rachel Powell (in the pink hat) bashing in windows at the US Capitol with a battering ram. Why? Is there anyone who attended the Jan. 6 protests who thought this was a good idea? Where did Rachel come from?
Dozens of Trump supporters were sent to prison for walking inside the US Capitol and leaving when asked. Rachel got house arrest and kept her job at the liberal book store.
Here is video again of Rachel Powell beating in a window with a battering ram.
Once Rachel beat out the window she poked her head inside the US Capitol and directed Trump supporters to the US Senate. How did she know this?
Patty McMurray at 100 Percent Fed Up posted on Rachel Powell back in June of last year.
100 Percent Fed Up reported – Rachel Powell is a 41-yr-old Pennsylvania resident and single mother of 8 children. The FBI asked for help to find Rachel after she was caught on film breaking windows at the Capitol on January 6th.

Rachel turned herself in to the FBI in early February 2021. She was charged with obstruction, depredation of government property, entering a restricted building, entering a restricted building with a dangerous weapon, and violent entry.
Rachel is currently residing at her PA home and is on house arrest. There are several red flags surrounding Rachel’s case, beginning with her arrest, short-lived imprisonment in PA, her release from prison, and subsequent 475-day house arrest in the comfort of her home, while so many men who committed lesser crimes are still serving pre-trial time in solitary confinement and living in deplorable conditions.
On January 6, Rachel Powell used an ice axe to bash open the windows of the Capitol building.
Watch:
When the ice axe doesn’t entirely remove the window from its frame, Rachel and an unidentified male use a battering ram that just happens to be lying near the Capitol windows and slam it into the windows of the Capitol as several bystanders watch or look away.
Watch:
Once the windows are bashed out, Rachel can be seen giving the people inside directions about how to navigate around the specific room where she just bashed out the windows. How does Rachel, who lives in Pennsylvania, know every detail of the room that she “randomly” chose to breach with an ice pick and battering ram?
Watch:
Dear @January6thCmte,
This is some of the most compelling video evidence on the planned attack in action on #January6th.
Please – @RepAdamSchiff @RepRaskin consider the 🎥 posted above of Rachel Powell giving details on how to take the Capitol in action.

According to Ronan Farrow’s article in the New Yorker on Feb 21, 2021, Rachel Powell did not vote for Donald Trump in 2016. “I was not part of a plot—organized, whatever,” she told the New Yorker. “I have no military background […], I’m a mom with eight kids. That’s it. I work. And I garden. And raise chickens. And sell cheese at a farmers market.” Although she didn’t support Trump in 2016, she suddenly became a fan of his in 2020.
The Pittsburg Post Gazette reported that Ms. Powell gave the interview to Ronan Farrow while the FBI was “looking for her.”
Ms. Rochlin also recounted how Ms. Powell left her children unattended at home to go to Washington that day and later gave an interview to the New Yorker while the FBI was looking for her.
The New Yorker, Vice, and CNN, who all ran hit pieces on Powell in the aftermath of Jan 6, have completely dropped her story.
Why was the woman, with no history of violence and up until 2020, had no interest in supporting Donald Trump at the Capitol with an ice axe and battering ram? How was she able to share such intricate details about the layout of the Capitol with people inside? And why does the media no longer care about her story? Should someone ask Ray Epps if he knows Rachel Powell?
