A Texas man who told a Bumble match that he participated in the Jan. 6 riot at the US Capitol was arrested after his would-be date alerted the FBI, according to court documents.

He's charged with obstruction of an official proceeding, felony assaulting police, obstruction of law enforcement, disorderly conduct in a Capitol building, demonstrating in a Capitol building and engaging in physical violence on restricted grounds.The FBI received a tip in January about Taake's participation in the riot after a witness told authorities they had messaged Taake on the dating app Bumble while he was in Washington, D.C.

“About 30 minutes after being sprayed,” he wrote underneath a selfie. “Safe to say, I was the very first person to be sprayed that day … all while just standing there.” "Several of these images show Taake using what appears to be a metal whip and pepper spray to attack law enforcement officers," the charging document stated.

After the FBI gathered images of Taake, they showed them to a FedEx driver who had delivered a package at Taake's home. The driver was able to identify the man in the photos as Taake, the documents stated.

They just can’t help themselves… give them enough rope and one by one…

free all political prisoners. now

If he was attacking officers, he deserves to be held accountable and punished. No doubt. But it’s amazing the lengths they will go through to hunt down capitol rioters vs people who attacked cops during 2020 social justice riots. Apply the law equally

😂😂, snitches everywhere, the riot happened in us capital was disgrace to anyone took part in it and to who called for it , the FBI should arrest who called for it too... any snitches here !!

Slowly, but surely, one by one - they are being held accountable.

If you really want to help catch these terrorist, download the Nextdoor app and pay attention to the conversations. If you see something, report it. They talk about this shit openly.

Who picked up the tab?

There are honest people in the world.

Just perfect 👌.

lol, seems to be about the average intelligence for that grpup

Maybe the feds should set a few agents up with dating profiles and catch some traitors.

word!

Pepper spray guy where is the media footage of that? Should be easy to find with capitol officer footage?

Fkn lame.

Yes! bumble doing good!

🤣🤣

Awesome….!!!!!

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Good for her.

GobrechtDavid And with that, the end of the perfect crime.

Why are these 'tourists' not proud of their visit to the Capitol on 1/6? They all seem to be hiding, like cowards, from the FBI. What happened to their being proud Patriots?

You go GRL 🤭🧐😳😏

He should have tried Christian mingle.

Had to go way back in my archives to find this one. Lol

When 'sightseeing' goes bad...😂

Imagine all the ones that just bypassed him since January... He finally got told on. Between his looks and that extremeism, I bet his self-esteem has been in the gutter. Was he a Proud Boy follower? Probably lustin' to look like the leader. And who could blame him, hot damn.

And in the next episode of “You Dumb Ass, Hahahahahahaha”.

Good move on the tipster’s part. May MANY MORE tipsters be inspired to report the insurrectionist while they “brag” about their participation on 1/6/21. ImprisonThemAll

Thank you, FBI ! Keep ‘em coming!

She’s was probably a liberal with 5 cats.

Maybe the FBI might get creative ? ( wink wink)

I wonder if he works for the FBI…

Hooray Bumble girl!! 🐝👩

But is there proof?

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

I have a weird feeling there won't be a second date.

'I was nowhere near DC on January 6th' is gonna be my new Tinder bio.

BLM and Antifa attacks and destruction of towns and cities were ‘protest’ but one protest by Trump supporters is called a ‘riot.’ Ridiculous…

'Anyone care for dinner and an insurrection?'

RonWaxman Amazing!!

Am I the only one who sees the irony of it being Bumble?

👏

Great idea! Catfish theses MFers!

So...he 'Bumbled' his way into custody?

She is the real MVP

👏👏👏

So, no second date?

Little head vs big head…

Leave it to Bumble women to save America.

Perhaps republicans should stay away from bumble ...

'Insurrectionist seeking same'

Are we going to stop calling this a “riot” and refer to it as the attempted insurrection it was ?😂😭

Wow! Maybe this is something you don’t want to post on your bio for MatchDotCom🤣

Thank you to the would be date, standing up for our democratic government.

He’ll soon be on Grindr

Why aren’t they arrested BLM rioters like this?

Wondering why he brought that up at a date.

Insurrectionist will be found, will arrested and will be charged...you've been used by the conman grifter from Queens NY, surely you realize that by now.

Wow Bumble. Must be true.

Bumble January 6 vigilantes. 👍👍

SMH stupid is what stupid does. Its like somebody bragging about being the guy on America most wanted...

Even the Nazis were smarter than them.

Hilarious, he got matched and turned in by actual patriot.
