Does Anyone Have A Pic Of The Rioter In Full Black Riot Gear Carrying Zip Ties?.....

I saw it in one of the original posts here on DU. I scanned down to look at the comments that were made about the pic. When I went back to the original post - it looked like somebody edited out most of the pic and placed a Parler banner over most of it to obliterate it.

That's never happened here before. It really bothers me that this happened.

I've watched a lot of the insurrection yesterday and looked at a lot of pics yesterday and today of this riot. This was the only place I saw this pic of the sinister/professional looking guy with the zip ties.

Part of the commentary in the post was that this was part of the plan to kidnap some of the House or Senate members and take them from the Capitol Bldg so they couldn't complete the Electoral Vote Count and certify the election of Biden.

I would appreciate it if somebody would re-post that pic or at least explain to me what happened to the pic in the original post.

Here's a link to that OP with the edited pic: https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=14846589

One of the few that stormed the capital wearing a mask to cover his face...and wearing gloves so no fingerprints. There were definitely pros among the insurrectionists.....what or who was their goal?

Many have asked. I have referred Male #2's name and details to the
@FBI
and will not be naming him right now.

However, I believe you should know that his bio includes:
-longtime security clearance
-graduate of a military academy
-Senior officer's rank at retirement
