NEW: Anthony Sargent (aka #bigbrickpitcher) has been arrested. The hand tattoos helped seal the case. A lot of work with open-source video on this one. #seditionhunters
Feds are really taking to this OSINT thing!
The FBI sealed the case up by surveilling Sargent in Florida and by pinning down his location at the Capitol with a Google search warrant. Uploaded here: documentcloud.org/documents/2106…

“Frankly, this is a defendant who has taken oaths before. He swore oaths in multiple sheriffs’ offices that he would uphold the law… This is someone who uses his badge and authority when it works for him, and disregards it when it does not.” huffpost.com/entry/capitol-…

"CHAN said he was considering joining a class action lawsuit for people who were tear gassed on January 6.” Image

Raffensperger wholly refuses to engage with the substance of @chrislhayes’ line of inquiry. It’s almost like the myth of mass voter fraud has been beneficial to the GOP for decades, but some leaders just found Trump’s clownish, ham-fisted stretching of the myth embarrassing.
A weird thing that happened after the election was that the folks who have been playing this game with voter fraud claims for decades started to worry that Trump was making them look completely ridiculous.
