FBI Arrests WalkAway Founder Brandon Straka Over Entering Capitol Building on Jan 6
The DC Patriot ^ | 25 Jan 21

Posted on 01/25/2021 2:54:32 PM PST by BlackFemaleArmyColonel

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.

Yes! I am well aware of all of the great work that Brandon has done.

I’ve followed him since he first came out...as a Trump supporter/Walk Away, from the Dem plantation.

And, you’re 100% correct about how we’re watching tyranny in action....beginning with the unleashed BLM/Antifa thugs, to the stolen election, to what we’re seeing now, w/Brandon, sham impeachment, etc.

The FBI is acting more like the Gestapo lately.

Because he’s told it, Greg Kelly just spoke with him and confirmed it and the legal filing stated they can’t confirm he actually went into the Capitol. This is purely political.

OK, I missed the reference in your post. But for those who might not know about Brandon, they should watch his powerful video about why he decided to WalkAway

Good

I like him and was on the Golden Gate Bridge with him last year and stood 10 feet from where he was attacked.

I actually thought the FBI did not make arrests anymore after Antifa & BLM got away with everything.

How many Antifa arsonists did the FBI track down and arrest?

Yes, given the riot score, left/right, now stands at about 1000/1, you'd think they could arrest a few more BLM/Antifa rioters.

Fine and dandy, but WHERE were those charges when folks stormed Congress during the Kavanaugh hearings??? Do you fellas think that everyone's just going to forget about all of this? Asking for a friend.

I just blocked a family member on Facebook. Someone I barely converse with and certainly have never discussed politics with- however he posted on one of my comments on a political page and attacked me personally. Again, we have barely spoken yet of all people on Facebook decides to attack me. I have no time for that, he’s done. Gone.

McCarthyism is taking hold. Everything the Left hated is now being used as a weapon against Conservatives. Scary times we are living in.

Did Brandon arrive at the Capital with his combat kit? If he didn’t, then he needs to STFU.

Communist POS!!!

We now have families snitching on people for political reasons...

We are beyond hope of a purely political solution at this point!

Yep. I know of one situation where they had beat a cop down, and MAGA got between them and the cop, in sort of a ring, and tried to protect the cop while calling for help. The antifa goons were trying to punch the cops through the ring, tried to go up and over them to get to the cop who was on the ground.

Did you ever hear his interview with Steve Bannon on War Room? I can find it for you. It was so good! Branden is so funny.

I hadn’t realized he grew up in my home state of Nebraska. He told his story from his early political beliefs to how he changed to a conservative. It was a most enjoyable listen.

If you missed it and might like to hear I’ll be happy to find it for you and post the link.

Why, oh why, did they go in? It was a trap, and they walked right into it.

Good for you. I unfriended about a half dozen family members too. They hate Trump and wanted to argue.

They can arrest and charge all they want....no jury will convict unless the perps committed violent acts...

Feds are just bull$hitting themselves if they believe any jury is going to convict...

Nobody likes DOJ/FBI... Nobody!
