The FBI is building its case against an alleged leader of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot one Lego brick at a time.

Investigators seized a “fully constructed US Capitol Lego set” from Robert Morss, 27, along with a notebook containing instructions on how to create a “hometown militia,” court records published by the Smoking Gun revealed.

The suspect allegedly led rioters in “one of the most intense and prolonged clashes” against law enforcement officials trying to contain throngs of rioters, according to the outlet.

I figured as much since the moops were allowed to have “training camps” (remember them?). So militia + Legos + notebook is a no-go (according to the FIB). I remember when there had to be a crime before anything could happen.

“...throngs of rioters”

sounds more dramatic than throngs of selfie-takers, and gawkers.

A neighborhood association, men’s club, gun club, etc., would be a preferable title for an association, not e.g. “The Elm Street Militia”. Any sizable organized citizens’ group can count on being infiltrated.

1032 pieces. That’s not just any Lego set. It’s a high-capacity Lego set.

We need federal limits - maximum of 10 bricks per Lego set.

I’m surprised that they would be wearing throngs. It was January after all. ;’}

Remember all those FBI recruits are college educated.

That means they are properly DNC’d.

Unbelievably, this is real life. But the Bee did do a story poking fun at the story. I was gonna buy that Capitol set, but I don’t want a visit from the FBI.
