FBI investigating woman said to have stolen Pelosi's laptop during Capitol riot to sell to Russia

The Federal Bureau of Investigation has obtained an arrest warrant for a woman alleged to have stolen a laptop from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., during the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, with the intention of selling the device to the Russian equivalent of the Central Intelligence Agency.

US Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, Democrat of California, speaks during her weekly press briefing on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC, on January 15, 2021. - Pelosi tasks retired general Russel Honoré with the security review after US Capitol riot on January 6. The Federal Bureau of Investigation has obtained an arrest warrant for a Pennsylvania woman alleged to have stolen a laptop from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., during the Jan.

"WILLIAMS did not provide her mother any information about her intended destination," Lund wrote. "Sometime after January 6, 2021, WILLIAMS changed her telephone number and deleted what I believe were her social media accounts on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Reddit, Telegram, and Parler." Lund's affidavit says that Williams was identified after her ex-partner made several calls to the FBI tip line. The FBI also reviewed video from the riot that appears to show Williams at the Capitol ushering a mob up a staircase that leads to Pelosi's office.

That same day, ITV News, a United Kingdom-based outlet, posted a video to its YouTube page title "Revealed: ITV News identifies protester who stormed the Capitol." The video identifies "Riley Williams" as a "22-year-old care worker" from Pennsylvania.

Somewhere on a right wing media outlet is a story about a liberal that’s just as ridiculous as this.

Wow! Now I have proof of what I suspected all along the Republican party is the communist party of United of America, my grandmother used to say show me your friends and I will tell who you are , President Trump admire, Xi Jinping, Vladimir Putin & Kim Jong-un.

Must be a lot of blank screens on there. Except Ms. PacMan

I think that would qualify as Treason to our Country.

Fake news no chance Pelosi can even operate a laptop.

Plain clothed ops downloaded the information from her laptop. Details coming...

Sounds like a crock of 🤫it

gee, ya think that woman might be prosecuted, might be convicted, might face some prison time? who wakes up in the morning and says, 'ya know, I think I'll ruin my life today'? ThinkPeopleThink

So what's surprising? The people who went to the Capitol were 'patriots' weren't they? So it must be in the country's best interest to sell Speaker Pelosi's laptop to Russia. Right? All of them, Patriots to a man... or in this case, to a woman.

like Russia doesn't know everything already.... Yet, I bet there is some serious emails in there!!!!!!! 'Nasty Nancy!!'

FBI is dirtier than KGB and a lot more dishonest!!!!! they cannot b trusted expect to do the most dishonest and corrupt things imagineable!!!! Wray Comey Mueller are enemies and belong in prison!!

Blaming mode switched on. It’s an American culture to blame others for their own fault. For this reason, this is a country which never any progress on anything.

feeding morons

Sell it to a grey hat better and declassify everything! So that the whole country stands up for justice and not moronizm...

Why would Russia want it? They are the people she’s emailing......

Almost as if media keeps pushing a narrative and soeculating what she might be doing. How’s Biden’s sons laptop going?

Trump is careless about National security

Hold on people ...let’s a little investigation happen before you start pinning this on certain people

Sad 🇺🇸

Treason, charge her with treason and send her to guantanamo bay.

These are your trump supporters folks

لبيعها لروسيا او لصين او اسرائيل...او ترامب....

Russians don’t need Pelosi’s laptop, they get all of that information from the Chinese.

Wow. Level of BS...

(Right wing extremists are products of the sort of professional pearl clutching we see from people like Josh Hawley.)

Lmaoooo

The Dems are never going to give up their Russian bogeyman narrative.

Treason happening in plain sight!

All you Trumpers sound like rapists. 'Look at how she dresses. She was asking for it.'

Those terrorists had the nerve to call themselves patriots. Patriots of what country?

Were they the nationalists?

Didn’t Pelosi follow the law on security? All govt IT devices have multiple layers of access protocols and if anything on there had national security implications it should have been locked in a safe if not in her possession. Not following these rules is a felony. FBI FBIWFO

What About A High Degree Of Probability That The Laptop Was Intentionally Placed There And Intentionally Stolen? What Would Anyone Do With Their Personal Possessions Knowing In Advance Of This Provocation?

again? yeah sure🙄

Pelosi is an idiot for leaving her laptop behind and if I recall, it was open, too. I realize everyone had to evacuate quickly, but the inability to secure their laptops and other items that had confidential information is concerning.

How did you know he’s going to sell to Russia? WHO BELIEVES THIS BULLSHIT!!!!!!

So when you keep such information on a portable device, you dont lock the room when you leave or put device somewhere safe? Spend your valuable time into figuring out quick vaccinations than these dumb things. That laptop only contains information on how to derail stimulus.

JanArtymowski

Prosecute whoever stole it by why wasn’t the laptop in a safe or Scif?

Capitol Rioter May Have Stolen Pelosi’s Laptop and Tried to Sell It to Russia, Says FBIITV NewsOne of the Trumpist rioters who stormed the U.S. Capitol earlier this month may have stolen House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s laptop and then tried to sell it to Russian intelligence, according to a criminal complaint.The extraordinary claim—which is now under investigation by the FBI—comes from an affidavit describing the criminal case against Pennsylvania woman Riley June Williams. She was recognized in footage of the deadly Jan. 6 Capitol riot by an unnamed person who claimed to be her former romantic partner. That person then tipped off the FBI.According to the complaint, the footage shows Williams “directing crowds inside the U.S. Capitol Building up a staircase,” and she can be heard repeatedly yelling: “Upstairs, upstairs, upstairs.” The FBI officer who wrote the complaint confirmed with U.S. Capitol Police that the staircase shown in the footage “does, in fact, lead to Speaker Pelosi’s office.”While there doesn’t appear to be any publicly available footage of Williams inside Pelosi’s office, the FBI is investigating an allegation that the rioter took a laptop or hard-drive from the room. Williams’ ex-partner said they had seen a video of Williams taking the device, and alleged she “intended to send the computer device to a friend in Russia, who then planned to sell the device to SVR, Russia’s foreign intelligence service.”The FBI has no supporting evidence for the ex-lover’s claim. Regardless, even if a laptop was taken, it appears not to have made its way into Russian hands—the ex-partner said that the deal “fell through for unknown reasons and Williams still has the computer device or destroyed it.” Pelosi’s aide Drew Hammill noted on Twitter last week that an office laptop was stolen, but said that it was “only used for presentations.”While the FBI investigates the Russian matter, Williams is facing separate charges of entering a restricted building and disorderly conduct for her actions on the day of the Capitol riots—but she has disappeared.Capitol R BS Really. You expect us the believe this? :(
