Emmanuel Jackson is an African-American Trump supporter who was involved in the January 6 attack on the United States Capitol building.

For reasons unknown at the time of this article's deadline we're not quite sure why but he's not eligible for bail when so many of his counterparts are not.

It appears as though Emmanuel was identified in social media footage wielding a metal bat during the insurrection.

Interestingly enough Breitbart is running a story saying that he was not there for Donald Trump. Obviously, they are using him to provide some cover for the mob of thousand of actual Trump supporters.

This is a developing story. Please check back for updates.
