@CMominator has spotted Arizona State Rep. Mark Finchem on the Capitol East Plaza during the insurrection.

Finchem is running for Secretary of State of AZ, which would put him in charge of elections.

He has been affiliated with the Oath Keepers, acc. to the Phoenix New Times Image
2/
In Feb the CFA filed a complaint "over Finchem’s failure to disclose a $6,000 payment the Trump campaign made to his company...for consulting in support of [Trump's] election fraud lie" & requesting contributions from supporters
campaignforaccountability.org/watchdog-reque…

⬇️ at 1/6 Ellipse rally Image
3/
"Mark Finchem told a QAnon talk show that he hopes the results of Arizona's election audit will lead to the state's 11 presidential electors being reassigned to former President Donald Trump."

The 2-hour interview discussed conspiracy theories as well.

Insurrection tour continues:
#IAmDougMastriano on the NW Lawn: a great find by @K2theSky

Her thread continues their tour to the East side of the Capitol for a little barricade action as well

3/
His Jan. 6th statement: "When it was apparent that this was no longer a peaceful protest, my wife and I left the area and made our way out of the area. At no point did we enter the Capitol building, walk on the Capitol steps or go beyond police lines."

#IAmVernonJones declared to his fellow insurrectionists:

"We're taking our country back!"
"Hold the line!"--a phrased echoed by rioters attacking the police.

Flashbangs barely distract him from encouraging the people to revolt against the government.

2/
#IAmVernonJones' insurrection:

"Vernon!"
"Hey, you still call yourself a Democrat, man?"

Things got a little dicey there, but the mob was distracted by the cheers as someone climbed the NW scaffolding, and he was welcomed after all.

"Vernon Jones!"

3/
As a politician and a former representative of the people, it is important to see both sides of things

So #IAmVernonJones also visited the East side of the Capitol to get the full insurrection experience

⬇️ Temp hashtag #TowerGlower (at 23:48).

Better view of his finger tattoos.

Anyone know of other sightings of #CapitolFLIR at the insurrection?

The #MediaTower was an excellent vantage point.
Thermal monoculars can also be used in daylight.

1/ Before 1/6 “The House Sergeant at Arms warned Members of Congress...to arrive early...and use underground tunnels to travel" between office bldgs &
"the Capitol, instead of walking.... Such precautions are not common during protests"

nbcwashington.com/news/local/dem…
2/ Beyond guarding the Capitol & congressional office bldgs, Capitol Police “patrols take them as far as the area around Union Station.”

USCP controls the "movement of all vehicular and other traffic, including demonstration activity," on Capitol Grounds

wusa9.com/article/news/n… ImageImage
3/ From 12/31 DC road closures for 1/5 & 1/6 focused around the WH/Mall (unclear when it was known that Trump would speak at rally)

The road closures stopped at 3rd St NW, west of the Reflecting Pool & West Lawn, near the edge of the Capitol Grounds map
