The FBI arrested an Omaha man for his actions during the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Omaha FBI agents arrest founder of WalkAway Campaign for actions during U.S. Capitol attack


Brandon Straka, 44, was arrested Monday by agents from the FBI Omaha Field Office, according to a report from the FBI.

SNIP
Straka faces charges of impeding a law enforcement officer during civil disorder, knowingly entering and remaining on restricted grounds without lawful authority and/or engaging in disorderly conduct within proximity to a restricted building to impede official functions and engaging in disorderly conduct with intent to disturb a hearing before Congress.

Court documents show that officials were tipped off about Straka posting a video near the Capitol entrance, shouting "go, go!"
The video was later removed and officials said they could not find any video or posts on his Twitter page relating to his actions at the Capitol.

These screenshots reportedly revealed that Straka made the following comments on Twitter on Jan. 6.:

*“Patriots at the Capitol – HOLD. THE. LINE!!!!”“

*I arrived at the Capitol a few hours ago as Patriots were storming from all sides. I was quite close to entering myself as police began tear-gassing us from the door. I inhaled tear gas & got it in my eyes. Patriots began exiting shortly after saying Congress had been cleared.

*”“I’m completely confused. For 6-8 weeks everybody on the right has been saying ‘1776!’ & that if congress moves forward it will mean a revolution! So congress moves forward. Patriots storm the Capitol – now everybody is virtual signaling their embarrassment that this happened.

*”“Also- be embarrassed & hide if you need to- but I was there. It was not Antifa at the Capitol. It was freedom loving Patriots who were DESPERATE to fight for the final hope of our Republic because literally nobody cares about them. Everyone else can denounce them. I will not.
*”“Perhaps I missed the part where it was agreed this would be a revolution of ice cream cones & hair-braiding parties to take our government back from lying, cheating globally interested swamp parasites. My bad.”

Multiple unnamed witnesses sent videos to the FBI that reportedly showed Straka outside the Capitol, shouting "we're going in!" and "Go! go!"

6. More on Straka & the Left-Wing WalkAway grassroots movement

Wonder how much wealth Mr Straka's made grifting off donations while he was playing all sides

Appears this guy covered a lot of bases to run oppo against Democracy & the Democratic Party.
He was rounding up followers everywhere. Blurring the lines between Left & Right & against the Democratic Party & Democracy.

About #WalkAway

https://www.walkawaycampaign.com

The #WalkAway Campaign is a true grassroots movement, founded by former liberal, Brandon Straka on May 26th, 2018. The #WalkAway Campaign encourages and supports those on the Left to walk
away from the divisive tenets endorsed and mandated by the Democratic Party of today. We are
walking away from the lies, the false narratives, the fake news, the race-baiting, the victim narrative,
the violence, the vandalism, the vitriol. We are walking away from a party driven by hate. We are
walking toward patriotism and a new, unified America! We are the future of this great nation!

10. It clearly is NOT a left wing movement.

[Budi]

13. Of course not. But he sold himself as one, based on which ever way the social media wind was blowing

I doubt he was ever political, not Left nor Right.

He became a self styled celebrity for some popular cause & grifted donations.

He moved wherever he found fame & fortune.
The cause itself was beside the point.

He was a big shot with scant knowledge of a political society.
He rode it as far as he could.
And to his detriment, he is now a nobody with a felony arrest & on the FBI watch list.

Up in flames, even as we speak.

He's a fool & a fraud. Nothing more than that.

8. No way was this dude ever a liberal

I call bullshit. On the off chance that I'm wrong, good riddance. We don't need people like that on our side.

9. He was never a liberal. But he knew wealth could be made with the right Con game.

He's just a scab on social media.

Another 'influencer' after likes, followers wealth & fame

11. Sometimes I think they were engaged in one big bourgeoisie paintball game

They were so ignorant, stupid, deluded and conned into believing they were patriots.

If they're so mentally supple, maybe we can delude them into thinking they're liberals?

[Budi]

12. Completely agree. And bets that before politics heated up on social media,

..not one of them had the slightest interest in the business of American politics.
Suddenly they were celebrities.
