Jamie B. Raskin (D-Md.) and a federal facility housing a nuclear research reactor in suburban Maryland, prosecutors said Wednesday. In court filings and arguments, prosecutors said the FBI had been monitoring Taranto’s online activities because of his participation in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol when the agency discovered his live stream June 28 as he apparently was driving to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), a Commerce Department agency in Gaithersburg, Md., about 15 miles north of Washington. In the live stream, Taranto allegedly made several statements indicating he intended to blow up his van at the facility, claimed that he had a detonator, was on a “one way mission” and that his vehicle was self-driving so he could be far away when it “went off.” A search [of his vehicle after his arrest] revealed a machete, 400 rounds of ammunition and two handguns, prosecutors said. Government records indicate that the two 9mm pistols were among 20 firearms registered to Taranto, prosecutors said, but the locations of the 18 others are unknown. [/QUOTE]
