The 'QAnon bison' who participated in the assault on the Capitol presents his candidacy for the United States Congress

Jacob Chansley, better known as the 'QAnon bison', was one of the most famous figures in the assault on the United States Capitol that occurred on January 6, 2021. Some facts for which he even ended up sentenced to three years in prison, but he managed to reduce his sentence to two by citing mental health problems.

Now, almost three years later, the man known for his buffalo clothing has declared that he wants to run in the next Congressional elections. He himself announced it through a statement in which he made official his desire to be elected through the Liberal Party of the state of Arizona.

The current position for this State corresponds to Debbie Lesko, member of the United States House of Representatives since 2018. Lesko already announced that he would not run for re-election when his term ends in January 2025, so Chansley has presented his intention to be nominated to be his successor.

Also known as the 'bison-shaman', his face was widely known around the world for the assault on the Capitol. Chansley pleaded guilty to civil disorder and violent entry into the premises, for which he was sentenced to 41 months in prison that was reduced for mental problems.
