2/ Charges include those stemming from the Proud Boys efforts to breach the layers of defense around the #Capitol, and make specific mention of the ripping away of a riot shield...which Pezzola (aka #spazzo) was shown using to breach a window.

3/ This #ProudBoys indictment for #conspiracy is quick on the heels of the #OathKeepers indictment.
Nice to see this for the other group that clearly coordinated some of the breaching.
Thread on that from yesterday is here https://twitter.com/jsrailton/status/1354818423566462978

4/ Want to see some of the obvious #ProudBoys coordination in the siege of the #Capitol yourself?
The @WSJ's visual investigations team has an *excellent* visual walk through from several days ago. I did a thread on it... https://twitter.com/jsrailton/status/1354226955273572355

5/ For the record: my favorite part of the @WSJ investigation is conspirator Dominic Pezzola's ( #Spazzo) lawyer claiming to them that his tactical earpiece was "for listening to music"
