Fact check: Yes! There were guns at the #Capitol siege.
Look for yourself: Sig P320/M17 on a man heading up the steps.

2 / Moreover, the @FBI was explicitly NOT speaking for #Capitol Police or @DCPoliceDept when they gave that answer to @SenRonJohnson.
Multiple people got gun charges on the 6th, as @RickRouan @USATODAY reports.

3/ The source of this deeply misleading factoid is, of course, questioning last week by @SenRonJohnson who continues to float the falsehood hat the mob was unarmed.

4/ Curious about the man with the gun? Folks have used #gingergun to surface pictures of him.
Recognize him? The @FBI has a tip line: fbi.gov/capitolbuilding
Reminder: NEVER tweet unconfirmed names.
Thanks to @MalcolmNance for IDing the weapon.
