The FBI said Thursday that it arrested a political appointee of President Donald Trump on charges that he stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 and assaulted an officer with a weapon, marking the first arrest of a Trump administration official in connection with the insurrection.


Federico Guillermo Klein, a former State Department official, made an initial appearance by teleconference on Friday before U.S. Magistrate Zia M. Faruqui in Washington, where prosecutors said they would seek to jail him pending trial at a hearing next Wednesday......

Klein was still employed at the State Department as a staff assistant on Jan. 6 when he joined a mob in a tunnel leading into the U.S. Capitol, the FBI said. Then he allegedly “physically and verbally engaged with the officers holding the line” at the building’s entrance, according to the complaint. After ignoring officers’ orders to move back, he assaulted officers with a riot shield that had been stolen from police, the complaint said, and then used the shield to wedge open a door into the Capitol.

​

A State Dept. employee at the time. Sad.

So crazy that these coincidences keep happening. I can't imagine why it could be that so many of these rioters are supporters and/or tied to Trump. A mystery of the ages.

Man, Antifa is all about the long con. They had someone dedicate their adult life and career to right wing causes, slowly working their way up through the ranks until landing in a top post on the family research council. There, the Antifa sleeper agent bided their time pushing right wing activism for years until the bigglyist Republican could be elected president. Then, they used their clout to become a presidential appointee so that they could await the perfect moment to try and frame right wingers to make them look like terrorists. Amazing.

Trump himself is a deep cover Antifa agent, you know.
