Videos and social media photos of the Capitol Hill insurrectionists have been ubiquitous even while the attack by supporters of President Donald Trump was still ongoing, and the FBI now has a staggering trove of digital evidence that continues to grow.

The impunity with which the participants in the deadly incident flouted their identities was staggering, as even in a pandemic, most of them invaded the Capitol without any face coverings, and were captured on countless video streams, in photographs by journalists, and in selfie images and videos they posted online themselves.

At a press conference this week, the FBI revealed that they’ve been scouring more than 100,000,pieces of digital evidence for leads, and according to Bloomberg News, that trove of potential evidence has grown:

More than 140,000 pieces of digital media have been obtained by the FBI. “And we are scouring every one for investigative and intelligence leads,” Steven D’Antuono, assistant director in charge of the FBI’s Washington Field Office, told reporters. “We continue to ask for more.”

1. Forensics like fingerprints and bio dna.

You know, piss, shit and spittle, in our Capital!

5. Oh yeah, forgot about the pile of feces they left behind in the Capitol building.

2. Luckily Parler has given them a big helping hand

Names, addresses, Drivers Licenses and SocSec# for everyone on their website. That includes probably half of the idiots who showed up at the Capitol last week.

The feds are still asking for tips from anyone who recognizes a face in the crowd photos.

Lock them all up.

3. Note to self:

Self, if you are going to plan to commit serious felonies, don't take pictures and share them online. Oh, also wear a mask, and gloves.

There are some really dumb Trump followers out there. They are probably not the ones we need to worry much about.

4. I'm waiting for the Whiz kid to plug it all together and create the 3D interactive mosaic

6. That would be amazing and would deserve a place in history.
