There is “strong evidence” that the mob that stormed the U.S. Capitol last week aimed to “capture and assassinate elected officials,” federal prosecutors said in court documents.
The remarks came in a motion prosecutors filed late Thursday in the case against Jacob Chansley, the Arizona man who took part in the insurrection while sporting face paint, no shirt and a furry hat with horns.
Prosecutors say that after Chansley climbed up to the dais where Vice President Mike Pence had been presiding moments earlier, Chansley wrote a threatening note to Pence that said: “It’s only a matter of time, justice is coming.”
Pence and other congressional leaders had been ushered out of the chamber by the Secret Service and U.S. Capitol Police before the rioters stormed into the room.
“Strong evidence, including Chansley’s own words and actions at the Capitol, supports that the intent of the Capitol rioters was to capture and assassinate elected officials in the United States Government,” prosecutors wrote in their memo urging the judge to keep Chansley behind bars.

Fake news! Typical Democrat hyperbole! Total falsity.
aimed to “capture and assassinate elected officials This is the absolute clearest & most compelling possible prove, that this entire saga was in absolutely no way whatsoever instigated by President Donald Trump, because there is simply no way that President Donald Trump would have even mentioned capturing & assassinating someone.
President Donald Trump is a president who loves peace as evinced in not having started any foreign military actions, and loves Law & Order.
Deep state swamp policy.
The Feds knew well in advance about this demonstration and the dangers that were coming but chose to do NOTHING about it. Nothing. They sat on their hands because they wanted something bad to happen so they could blame those white Trump supporters. In this way, reparations and restrictions on white males would be more acceptable to the gullible amongst us.
Right. Reminds me when BLM went after rand Paul. Thru wanted to kill him as well. That’s no problem. He’s not from the elite left.
Comments are becoming more caustic by the day, from deluded yidden on both sides of the divide who, I hope not too late, will realize that despite their passionate defense for one position or the other, will fall in the MIDDLE of the divide. ZECHOR YEMOIS OYLOM, BIHNOO SHNOYS DOR V’DOR, Take lessons from jewish history and DON’T YOU DARE THINK THAT EVERYONE ELSE WILL LOOK AT YOU AS LOYAL AMERICANS, EVEN THOSE YOU DEFEND. YOU ARE YIDDEN IN GOLUS, PERIOD!!!
Yes. Our saviour is Joe Biden. He is Moshiach. Our yeshua is already in progress. On Jan 20th we will no longer say Vilerushalayim and es tzemach david in our shmoneh esrei. Ms. Harris will help him unite all Yidden. Good times are coming.
You’re a sick individual. Mr. Mendoza has the only sensible comment in this thread. You respond with silly leitzanus. Typical Matzav comments thread.
