“Strong evidence” suggests that Capitol rioters intended to capture and assassinate members of Congress, a court filing in the case of one of the accused rioters says.

Federal official walks back allegation rioters intended to 'capture and assassinate'

The statement of alleged violent intent came in a motion filed by federal prosecutors in Arizona seeking to have Jacob Chansley detained pending trial. Chansley, also known as Jake Angeli, was seen wearing horns, a fur headdress and face paint during the riot. The filing, though, did not specify what statements by Chansley indicate that intent, nor do the actual charges against him make any reference to that intent.Sherwin said the complexity of the Capitol riots cases paired with their geographic expanse, with cases filed in the District of Columbia and others elsewhere, could have contributed to the walked-back description of suspects.

Just the thought of Trump being able to just walk away puts a chill down my spine. The security of our Country will be at risk along with the racial unrest he will continue. Just look at what he’s done in publics view and what he can do under cover!

MsDNC no confidence vote. Reality Capitol police conspiracy

They should NEVER,EVER see the light of day again.

That’s the direct opposite of the FBI’s investigation results

They arrested the leader. Radical leftist caught on video confessing to the crime. Was with a CNN reporter. You should report the truth.

KEEP COOL PREPARE YOU CIVIL WAR 2024 ...!!!

There can only be one penalty for these anarchists

I’m ashamed to be called a Republican, I ask you Republican Senators did you take the oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of did you take the oath to protect and defend Donald Trump! You can’t have both!

More propaganda bullshit

Dammmm. Throw away the book and keep them in jail forever...even better put them on the execution list.

This headline is misleading, imo. “A U.S. DOJ official walked back a federal claim that Capitol rioters 'intended capture & assassinate elected officials.' Washington's acting U.S. Attorney said, 'There is no direct evidence at this point of kill-capture teams & assassination.'

You mean the very lawmakers that make wars legal ?

Trump used our lack of revenge to confuse us with aggressive rhetoric. As he grew democrates took the bait and used harsher words themselves. Now that the Republicans have lost propagandists like Fox News continue to focus on the democrats falling into the trap of violent speak.

You seem certain that your intended audience is as stupid as you think they are.

Federal official walks back allegation rioters intended to 'capture and assassinate'A justice official in charge of the investigation into the Capitol riot said there was no 'direct' evidence of that intent. That’s the consequences of throwing out misinformation in order to be first and not truthful. The damage is already done, now a big share of Americans believe rioters wanted to “capture & assassinate” 'There is no direct evidence at this point of kill-capture teams and assassination.' Yes, particularly because it’s hard to kill and/or capture *anyone* using a fucking megaphone & a goddamn horned hat... let alone members of congress in most fortified area in the world. 🤡 Seriously? Wtf would they do that for? A cop died. They had zipties. These are the people who tried to kidnap/kill the Governor of Michigan, too. Was that fake, too? I'd investigate whoever said not to do this.
