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.

BRANDEN DID NOT GO INTO THE CAPITOL PEOPLE!
Not that I have heard.
And they certainly have a clear enough image of his face to do that.
What’s that all about?
They are sending the right a very clear message.
Did you see this copy of Brandon remarks on Twitter? It’s from GP, so meh, but I’m guessing this was sourced from Twitter too
“However, the FBI was sent multiple screenshots. These screenshots reportedly revealed that Straka made the following comments on Twitter on Jan. 6.:
“Patriots at the Capitol – HOLD. THE. LINE!!!!”
“I arrived at the Capitol a few hours ago as Patriots were storming from all sides. I was quite close to entering myself as police began tear-gassing us from the door. I inhaled tear gas & got it in my eyes. Patriots began exiting shortly after saying Congress had been cleared.”
“I’m completely confused. For 6-8 weeks everybody on the right has been saying ‘1776!’ & that if congress moves forward it will mean a revolution! So congress moves forward. Patriots storm the Capitol – now everybody is virtual signaling their embarrassment that this happened.”
“Also- be embarrassed & hide if you need to- but I was there. It was not Antifa at the Capitol. It was freedom loving Patriots who were DESPERATE to fight for the final hope of our Republic because literally nobody cares about them. Everyone else can denounce them. I will not.”
“Perhaps I missed the part where it was agreed this would be a revolution of ice cream cones & hair-braiding parties to take our government back from lying, cheating globally interested swamp parasites. My bad.”
For one thing - he’s telling people to “hold the line”, then he books on out when the “tear -gassing” began. Then he INSISTS that there was no antifa, when there very clearly was. I had a trusted person there who told me that there were distinctly “different groups”, most were friendly and polite, and some smaller groups had a whole different edge to them. I got info directly from LEO on site also. They knew what was going on.
If the “twitter” stuff is in fact from Brandon, it’s disappointing.
“Then he INSISTS that there was no antifa”
I have seen him interviewed. He said that on the side of the Capitol where he was, they saw no Antifa. The Antifa thuggery was happening in another area which they couldn’t see — the opposite side of the building. As far as HE knew, there was no Antifa.
The ANTIFA and BLM criminals they arrested were let go curtiosy of
Democrat politicians bailing them out.
That is so, to an extent. I know that on the one side of the building there was very little antifa activity, and where it did go on, it was concentrated. They (antifa) embedded themselves ahead of time in with MAGA people who seemed to be more animated and upset, then sort of “took over” and encouraged action, egging MAGA people on as hard as they could.
I also watched it live streamed on some bloggers channel - he had five or six streams running. People on the ground stream to him. MAGA people walked within the velvet ropes, and exited the building when the fire alarms were turned on. Pretty different than painted to be. I watched as the doors were opened from inside - the doors were not busted open. MAGA people were actually pretty content to hang out on the outside of the Capital.
He is merely suspended.
I guess it’s who you know, like usual.
The Left invaded the Wisconsin state capitol in 2011...
K
You know this how?
The charges seem like the same ones leveled against everyone else.
I’ve met Brandon a couple times and couldn’t be a nicer guy, as well, Dr. Simone Gold who is not guilty.
Always remember... it is illegal to stop the coup. The only way to legally win back the White House is to sell out to China and our Globalist overlords so they can reset the Dominion voting machines, block poll watchers, etc.
I have two friends who were standing near there and they say Antifa was beating the chit out of the cops.
Of course, the Democrat Media is obscuring this fact.
How is the corrupt FBI going to make those charges stick when there are so many videos of the cops letting people in and actually acting like guides for the people.
“And relatives willing to snitch.”
I think that was a common thing in Nazi Germany and Stalin Russia. Which, by the way, if no one steps on the brakes, we will be there in short order.
His group was so successful that Facebook, Twitter, and now the federal government have gone to extreme lengths to suppress it. Sadly we are watching tyranny in action.
You can learn more about them here . At least until some Democrat figures out how to shut down their website.
