They face charges of conspiracy, aiding and abetting in the obstruction of an official proceeding, obstruction of law enforcement during civil disorder, destruction of government property, entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds and disorderly conduct in a restricted building or grounds, according to an indictment unsealed Wednesday.


The younger brother has described himself as a Proud Boy and wore a “Proud Boy PDX” shirt in a Jan. 5 photo taken in Washington, D.C., according to the FBI.

Both Kleins also attended a Proud Boys rally in Portland’s Delta Park on Sept. 26 , when Matthew Klein was cited on gun allegations, and a demonstration outside Oregon’s Capitol in Salem on Sept. 7, according to court documents.

A federal prosecutor described the brothers as “dangerous powder kegs” in his memo seeking their continued detention. Both are being held in Portland’s downtown jail but will face prosecution in Washington, D.C.

Were his parents unable to decide what his name should be so they flipped a coin and it landed on its side?

Comments were pretty closely split between "Enjoy jail, motherfuckers!" and "Whataboutwhataboutwhatabout downtown rioters in Portland?" as if the demonstrators were killing a half dozen people every night.
