An organizer of the Stop the Steal rally who once spoke at a campaign rally for former President Donald Trump was arrested Monday in connection with his role in the Jan. 6 Capitol siege in Washington, D.C.

Brandon Straka, 44, was arrested in Omaha, Nebraska, by FBI agents and charged with multiple federal crimes after investigators uncovered a litany of video and social media evidence that put Straka amid the heart of the days violence, according to a criminal complaint .

In a 58-minute video posted to YouTube, Straka acknowledged that he marched to the Capitol and said he was one of the speakers slated to speak at the Capitol.

Though Straka claimed he didnt witness any violence or vandalism, authorities uncovered tweets in which he appeared to encourage those who stormed the Capitol.

Im completely confused. For 6-8 weeks everybody on the right has been saying 1776! & that if congress moves forward it will mean a revolution! Straka wrote in a tweet the day of the insurrection, according to his criminal complaint. So congress moves forward. Patriots storm the Capitol now everybody is virtual signaling their embarrassment that this happened.

In another tweet, he said: 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.
