Well, it was quite a good 48 hours for arresting MAGAt insurrectionists, wasn't it!? Here's another one, who happened to be a former FBI supervisor:
The FBI this week arrested a former bureau supervisor in connection with the Jan. 6 riot who they said called for killing officers protecting the Capitol that day.
Authorities arrested Jared L. Wise in Oregon on Monday, court records show. An FBI affidavit says he worked as a special agent and a supervisory special agent at the FBI from 2004 until 2017.
It wasn’t immediately clear where Wise was employed at the time of the riot.
Wise was charged with entering and remaining in a restricted building; disorderly conduct in a restricted building; disorderly conduct with an intent to impede an orderly session of Congress; and unlawfully parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building.
"I’m former—I’m former law enforcement. You’re disgusting. You are the Nazi. You are the Gestapo. You can’t see it. ... Shame on you! Shame on you! Shame on you!” federal authorities say he told officers after he entered the Capitol. “Yeah, f--- them! Yeah, kill ’em! Kill ’em! Kill ’em! Kill ’em!”
The FBI said that security video showed Wise entered the Capitol through the Senate wing door and that cellphone data confirmed his presence. He later exited out a window, it said.
The incident when Wise yelled at police took place on the upper west terrace at around 4:21 p.m., when violence against police officers was happening in front of him, "including officers being knocked to the ground directly in front of him," the FBI affidavit said. That's when Wise "turned in the direction of the violence" and called for the mob to kill officers, the FBI affidavit said.
The initial tip came from someone Wise told about entering the building, according to the affidavit. Wise was living in New Braunfels, Texas, until last June, authorities said, and then moved to Bend, Oregon...
Once again, please check out the FBI's rogues gallery of treasonous insurrectionists to see if you can help in the identification and arrest of a MAGAt.
UPDATE: Here's a little more detail on Wise's time at the FBI's New York bureau, and his post-FBI employment at (wait for it) "Project Veritas."
