Coup plot twist: A witness told the FBI a woman took Speaker Pelosi’s computer device during the Capitol siege intending to sell it to “a friend in Russia”—who planned to sell it to the SVR foreign intelligence agency. The witness said the transfer fell thru for unknown reasons.

UPDATE: Riley WILLIAMS has been arrested. She's the woman alleged in a plot to sell Pelosi's laptop to "a friend in Russia."

It should shock no one if Russian agents were involved in #CapitolSiege. Insurrection by "patriots" fed disinformation is a Kremlin specialty.

Hmm. This tweet about Riley WILLIAMS "in jail" has been deleted. Apparently only an arrest warrant has been issued, charging Williams with violent entry or disorderly conduct, and entering the restricted space of the Capitol (Per CNN). But Williams has NOT been arrested. Yet.

Riley WILLIAMS' mother told @itvnews her 22yo daughter had left home & hasn't been seen. She said that Riley "had taken a sudden interest in Trump's politics and far-right message boards." #Disinformation #Radicalization #Terrorism #TrumpInsurrection

@itvnews Riley WILLIAMS, woman in white nationalist T-shirt directing people towards Pelosi’s office during Capitol insurrection on Jan. 6, is on the run.

WILLIAMS is also under investigation for possibly stealing the Speaker's laptop & planning to sell it to Russia's secret service.😨

@itvnews Healthy caution by @emptywheel on Riley WILLIAMS, the 22yo woman seen directing the Capitol mob to Pelosi’s office. The FBI investigation into alleged sending of Pelosi's laptop to Russia’s SVR is based on a tip. Secondhand. From an ex.

I wouldn't be shocked if it holds up FWIW.
