Walkaway founder Brandon Straka has been arrested by the FBI for incidents that happened at the Capitol on January 6th according to the Bureau.
Agents from the Omaha FBI Field Office arrested Straka on Monday in connection to riots at the Capitol building in Washington, D.C. earlier this month.
The FBI says that Straka was charged with the following:
Impeding a law enforcement officer during civil disorder. Knowingly entering and remaining on restricted grounds without lawful authority and/or engaging in disorderly conduct within proximity to a restricted building to impede official functions. Engaging in disorderly conduct with intent to disturb a hearing before Congress. Straka is currently in federal custody and will have his initial appearance in Federal Court on Tuesday January 26th.
The FBI said that “Witness-1” was a relative of Straka to pointed investigators to a video Straka had posted to Twitter. After the video was deleted from Twitter, the relative let the agent know there was a copy of the video posted to YouTube.
Here’s the full Report from The Department of Justice.
This is a developing story.

PATRIOT PING
Unreal. 🙁
I read that someone related to him sent FBI screenshots of his Twitter or Instagram on Jan 6th and they’re using that against him.
How many Antifa arsonists did the FBI track down and arrest?
OMG, not our Brandon. This is sickening. Arrest Antifa - they’re the lethal ones. Brandon is not that at all. My heart hurts.
Social media claims another one.
He posted the video to Twitter?
Didn;t he used to play for the Pittsburgh Penguins?
Brandon will set up a decent legal fund. I’ll contribute. He should fight it all the way to the SC.
He will be made an example-of, simply due to how much #walkaway hurt the Democrat Party.
After all:
“Thou shalt not attempt to flee thy master’s plantation if thou art a member of a designated “oppressed” class.”
They are literally using facial recognition to arrest non-antifa.
“I read that someone related to him sent FBI screenshots of his Twitter or Instagram on Jan 6th and they’re using that against him.”
Anything one posts on social media can and will be used against them in a court of law.
hopefully he’ll have a site up where we can help.
They could have taught the Redcoats a thing or two.
And relatives willing to snitch.
yep
I continue to be amazed at how quickly and decisively the fbi can act when properly motivated. In the near past I guess that they just weren’t adequately inspired to go after establishment types.
Have they arrested the guy who executed Ashli Babbitt yet?
