Here’s “Zip Tie Guy.”

He stormed the Capitol Building prepared to take hostages.
Sounds scary, but a little less when you realize he did it with his mom.
Luckily, a “Patriot” live-streamed him and his mom in the hotel lobby. Looks like @andersoncooper was right! Wonder if they had Olive Garden first. 🤔
“Zip Tie Guy” - or better, “Mama’s Boy” - is Eric Munchel from Nashville, TN

This begins on Monday, 48 hours before the #CapitolAttack. I was reading about the #StopTheSteal rally and realized it was on the same day as certification. I told a colleague I was concerned there would be a takeover the Capitol Building to block the vote.

What would come was not a surprise.

On Wednesday, that colleague sent me a Slack message: “Not to freak you out, but…”

Has anyone identified these fuckers who attacked an Associate Press journalist?

Get ready to drag them, @FBI.

Also, @AP, give this man a raise.
