DEA agent arrested for participating in Jan. 6 Capitol riot by Trump supporters

POINTS
  • A U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration agent has been arrested for allegedly participating in the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol by supporters of then-President Donald Trump.
  • The agent, Mark Sami Ibrahim, allegedly flashed his badge and a DEA-issued handgun during the riot.
  • Authorities said he entered the restricted area around the Capitol and also climbed on the Peace Memorial at the foot of Capitol Hill.
  • Ibrahim, who lives in Orange County, California, was a probationary employee of the DEA. He had given notice of his planned resignation, according to a court filing
A U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration agent has been arrested for allegedly participating in the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol by supporters of then-President Donald Trump.

The agent, Mark Sami Ibrahim, allegedly flashed his badge and a DEA-issued handgun during the riot while posing for photos with those items. Photos of him doing so are included in a court filing.




Authorities said he entered the restricted area around the Capitol and also climbed on the Peace Memorial at the foot of Capitol Hill.

And he participated “in a WhatsApp group chat with at least five other law enforcement officers” during the invasion of the Capitol grounds, the court filing said.

That filing also says that after Trump supporter Ashli Babbitt was fatally shot by a police officer inside the Capitol, as she crawled through a window leading to the House of Representatives chamber, she was taken outside on a gurney and passed “within steps of Ibrahim.”

A friend of Ibrahim’s who was standing with him videotaped Babbitt as “she was being moved past them” into an ambulance,” the filing said.

Panel chair says Trump will be part of Jan. 6 inquiry
Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.), who is chairing the select committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, said former President Trump will be part of his inquiry, telling The Guardian that “nothing is off limits.”

Thompson, who also serves as the chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee and authored the bill creating the independent commission, said he is prepared to depose lawmakers and senior Trump administration officials who might have taken part in the attack.
He told The Guardian that he “absolutely” intends on conducting a wide-ranging probe against Trump and some of his top allies on Capitol Hill.

“The issues of January 6 are one of the most salient challenges we have as a nation, to make sure that this democracy does not fall prey to people who don’t really identify with democracy,” Thompson told the news outlet.

He said Trump and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy are among the key witnesses in the investigation, largely because the California Republican was on the phone with Trump when the attack was taking place.

“There will not be a reluctance on the part of the committee to pursue it,” Thompson said, referring to McCarthy’s call. “The committee will want to know if there is a record of what was said.”

He also warned that the committee will refer criminal charges against Trump if it becomes apparent that White House records from the period between the November election and Jan. 6 are missing or destroyed, which has reportedly become a concern among some Democrats.
“I don’t see any hesitation on our part to pursue that," Thompson said. "If the respect for the rule of law is not adhered to, that’s even more reason for this select committee to exist.”
Impeach Trump a fourth time?

Nice. Pelosi nixed Jim Jordan and Banks(?) from obstructing the committee. (MSNBC is reporting it)

Isn't Jordan one of the ones who had brought people to the capital on the 5th even though it was shut down due to the pandemic. No way he should be able to spin the hearings in real time like the good propagandist he is.

Fuck Jim Jordan.

'Helmet boy' Capitol insurrectionist demands plea deal in 'off the rails' hearing: 'Can I get an offer?'

The Capitol insurrectionist who became known as "helmet boy" — after being captured on video using a riot helmet to smash a window to the Speaker's Lobby during the Jan. 6 riot — demanded a plea bargain from prosecutors during an "off the rails" court appearance on Wednesday.


Zach Alam, who remains in jail, spoke over his attorney and demanded to represent himself, at one point directly asking a federal prosecutor assigned to the case, "Can I get a deal?" according a live report from Scott MacFarlane, an investigative reporter for Washington, D.C.'s NBC affiliate.

Alam said he was making an "offer" — for prosecutors to drop all charges — before demanding, "Make me a counteroffer."

Alam's outburst reportedly started before the judge even arrived for the hearing, when he yelled, "I will represent myself!" at attorneys and clerks.

After the judge later advised Alam to stop talking and repeatedly warned him against representing himself, he responded, "I don't take your advice," as his attorney attempted in vain to delay the hearing.

"(The prosecutor) will not be able to convince jury that i possessed dangerous weapon on January 6. I can prove that," Alam said. "I want (the prosecutor) to offer me a deal right now. ... She needs to start doing her job and offer me a deal."

After the judge explained that prosecutors are not required to offer a plea bargain, the prosecutor said, "There has not been a plea offer, but I'm happy to start that process."

"Consider it requested now!" Alam interjected.

The judge ultimately delayed the hearing until later this summer, and Alam returned to jail.

He has been in custody since February, after being arrested when a family member tipped off authorities.

Deceased rioter Ashli Babbitt would later attempt to crawl through the window broken out by Alam, before being fatally shot by police.

I have the feeling, no, more like Alam has the feeling of being violated in jail. "Please let me get out of here."

yes and supposedly gave pre-insurrection tours so they could familiarize themselves with layout..which is why when the cop drew them away to the left they wanted to go to the right because they were already shown the way. on the tape you can see the insurrectionist looking and wanting to go right (towards the Senate) not wanting to go the way the cop was leading.

the person behind that guy even pointed to the right because they knew- they knew..someone helped them..but who?

McCarthy yanks all GOP picks from Jan. 6 committee
"Unless Speaker Pelosi reverses course and seats all five Republican nominees, Republicans will not be party to their sham process and will instead pursue our own investigation of the facts," he said in a statement.
A Pelosi spokesman quickly shot down the possibility that Pelosi might reverse course.

McCarthy's remarkable announcement came less than an hour after Pelosi had announced her refusal to seat two of McCarthy's recommended choices for the select committee: Reps. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and Jim Banks (R-Ind.).

The special panel was created last month to investigate the Capitol siege, and Pelosi said the actions and statements of Jordan and Banks surrounding the violent episode threatened "the integrity of the investigation."

Pelosi said she would accept the other three Republicans recommended by McCarthy earlier in the week: Reps. Rodney Davis (Ill.), Kelly Armstrong (N.D.) and Troy Nehls (Texas). And in a phone call with McCarthy Wednesday morning, she said she invited the Republican leader to choose two alternatives to Jordan and Banks.

McCarthy wasted no time huddling with those lawmakers in the Capitol — a short meeting followed quickly by his announcement that Republicans will not engage in the select committee probe.

"This represents an egregious abuse of power and will irreparably damage this institution," he said in his statement. "Denying the voices of members who have served in the military and law enforcement, as well as leaders of standing committees, has made it undeniable that this panel has lost all legitimacy and credibility and shows the Speaker is more interested in playing politics than seeking the truth."

Political theater.

Cheney: GOP leader seeking to block real Jan 6 investigation
“There must be an investigation that is nonpartisan, that is sober, that is serious, that gets to the facts, wherever they may lead," Cheney told reporters outside the Capitol. "And at every opportunity, the minority leader has attempted to prevent the American people from understanding what happened to block this investigation."

The latest jab at the minority leader from Cheney followed McCarthy's announcement earlier on Wednesday that he was yanking all five of his picks to serve on the select committee probing the Jan. 6 riot after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) rejected two of his top nominees: Reps. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and Jim Banks (R-Ind.).

Jordan and Banks, who are considered to be staunch allies of former President Trump, both voted against certifying President Biden’s election victory in January.
"With respect for the integrity of the investigation, with an insistence on the truth and with concern about statements made and actions taken by these Members, I must reject the recommendations of Representatives Banks and Jordan to the Select Committee," Pelosi wrote in a statement.

"The unprecedented nature of January 6th demands this unprecedented decision," she added.
McCarthy said Republicans "will not be party to their sham process and will instead pursue our own investigation of the facts" unless Pelosi "reverses course" and approves all five of his GOP nominees.

The GOP will do their own investigation?

Judge forces US Capitol rioter to unlock laptop seized by FBI

The judge granted the Justice Department's request to place Capitol riot defendant Guy Reffitt in front of his laptop so they could use facial recognition to unlock the device. The maneuver happened after the hearing ended and Reffitt's lawyer confirmed to CNN that the laptop was unlocked.

Investigators seized the laptop and other devices earlier this year pursuant to a search warrant.

Reffitt has been in jail since his arrest in January. His case received national attention after his son spoke publicly about how Reffitt had threatened to kill family members if they turned him into the FBI. The case became an example of how former President Donald Trump's lies tore some families apart -- Reffitt's son and daughter testified against him in court or before the grand jury.

He pleaded not guilty to five federal crimes, including bringing a handgun to the Capitol grounds during the insurrection and obstructing justice by allegedly threatening his family. The felony gun charge was added last month, and undercuts false claims from Trump and prominent Republican lawmakers that the rioters weren't armed and that they had "no guns whatsoever."

The case raised intriguing constitutional questions about the right against self-incrimination, but Judge Dabney Friedrich agreed with prosecutors that the unlocking was within the law.

In previous court filings, Reffitt's attorneys said that the search warrant for the laptop had expired, and that Reffitt didn't remember if there was a password.

"As the court here noted, requiring a defendant to expose his face to unlock a computer can be lawful, and is not far removed from other procedures that are now routinely approved by courts, with proper justification: standing in a lineup, submitting a handwriting or voice exemplar, or submitting a blood or DNA sample," CNN senior legal analyst Elie Honig said in an email.

When judges consider requests like these, Honig said, they try to strike a balance "between respecting a defendant's privacy and other rights on the one hand, and enabling prosecutors to obtain potentially crucial evidence with minimal intrusion on the defendant's rights, on the other."

By the time that Reffitt entered the courtroom, two FBI agents had set up his Microsoft Surface Pro laptop and two bags worth of technical equipment. Prosecutors have previously said in court filings that they believed the laptop contained more than 6 gigabytes of videos that Reffitt filmed on a helmet-worn camera while he moved from the Ellipse to the US Capitol grounds.
If the videos are on the laptop, prosecutors said, they could contain valuable evidence, like footage of the handgun that he brought to the Capitol, or any comments he made about his intentions that day.

Reffitt -- who was wearing an orange prison jumpsuit, white Velcro sneakers and a medical face mask -- seemed uninterested during most of the proceedings. He often rubbed his eyes, and at one point even leaned so far back in his chair that he had to catch himself from falling.
