A man accused of taking part in the insurrection at the Capitol building last month wrote he “pissed” in House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s office online.
The FBI was tipped by three people who provided authorities with photos and videos of James Douglas Rahm’s posts on Facebook that linked him to the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, according to the Washington Times.
As PennLive reported, Rahm of New Jersey created posts on Facebook, which are now deleted, present at the Capitol building.
In a Facebook post, when a user commented and asked Rahm if he was okay and safe, the 61-year-old responded saying, “Shields and pepper spray never hurt anyone, did they? Home alive. History made. I walked right through Pelosi’s office. I should have sh-t on her chair,” according to the Penn Live and court documents.
According to the court documents, when someone commented for Rahm to, “Get back inside. Give Pelosi a kiss,” he replied, saying he “pissed in her office.”

In addition to his several posts online, security footage captured Rahm in the mob at the historic building during the breach, according to Penn Live. Agents were able to identify him by his attire, the report said.
Like others charged for participating in the riot, Rahm faces multiple charges, including violent entry or disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds and knowingly entering or remaining in a restricted building without authority, Penn Live reported. Rahm was arrested but later released on bond, according to the outlet.
On Jan. 6, a pro-Trump mob stormed the US Capitol building while lawmakers certified President Joe Biden's victory in the 2020 November election. More than 260 people have been charged for the Capitol siege so far.
