'I am not a terrorist': Retired Navy SEAL speaks after Capitol siege

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

A retired U.S. Navy SEAL is facing questions from the FBI after boasting in a Facebook video about "breaching the Capitol" last Wednesday after traveling to Washington to join a rally for President Donald Trump, an assault he said in the video that he hoped would ignite a "positive revolution."

The video shows Adam Newbold, 45, from Lisbon, Ohio, who the Navy confirmed is a retired reserve SEAL special warfare operator, in a car on his return home from Washington, telling his Facebook followers that he was "proud" of the assault on the U.S. Capitol building earlier that day.

Newbold, in the video, seeks to defend the actions of those who broke into the Capitol by falsely insisting that the only destruction occurred as the rioters tried to enter the building, and also incorrectly says that nothing was vandalized.

"There was destruction, breaching the Capitol, our building, our house. And, um, to get in you had to destroy doors and windows to get in," Newbold says in the video. The video has been deleted from Facebook, but a copy of it was obtained by ABC News.

15. Yes, sonny

you most certainly ARE a terrorist! you broke through the barricades and you breached Capitol security. I don't care what else you did or didn't do, that makes you guilty of terrorism. That is a felony. And guess what, as a felon you can no longer own weapons. Gonna make it awkward for your business, isn't it?
