!! ALERT: DEA agent arrested in Jan 6 US Capitol Insurrection
Mark Ibrahim of California was on leave from agency on that day, per court filings, but was carrying DEA-issued firearm that day
Ibrahim is about to appear in court
Feds say this photo (included in court filings) show Ibrahim carrying and showing-off his DEA-issued gun
Prosecutors allege this photo (a selfie) shows Ibrahim inside the restricted area on Jan 6
And then there's this. In court filings, prosecutors say Ibrahim (the former federal agent) is accused of lying to federal agents about his participation and actions on Jan 6. And they say a witness told agents Ibrahim was thinking of launching a political podcast
This image is powerful. In court documents in case of DEA agent accused in US Capitol breach case... feds say agent flashed these items for photo ===>

RIGHT NOW: Prosecutors are arguing to hold Jan 6 defendant Rob Morss in jail. Morss is accused of having military gear & being part of multiple fronts of assault vs police
Feds say Morss tried to "rob" baton and shield from officer's hands, engaged in violence for 2+ hours
Feds: Morss used stolen riot shield against the officers, told someone to block a camera, joined crowd as it did "heave-ho" attack against line of officers, went into Capitol thru broken window
Feds: He appears to put his military training to use that day. Morss was a leader
Morss has argued that he got "caught up in the frenzy" that day
But prosecutors say Morss packed military gear, including tourniquet.. and was "directing" others in mob
Another domestic abuse allegation surfaces in Jan 6 case
Matt Bledsoe asks court to remove his GPS ankle tether
Feds respond that police were called on Bledsoe in 2014 for punching pregnant woman & repeatedly kneeing her stomach (He wasn't convicted)
& Another call in 2020
Oh... and Bledsoe is asking the court to remove his tether device because he:
1) Owns a moving company 2) Is working a lot 3) Wants to wear shorts 4) Can't wear shorts, because of ankle tether 5) Says it's "hard" to conceal ankle tether
This is at least the second Jan 6 defendant who was accused of assaulting a pregnant woman prior to the Insurrection
