Man seen chasing Black Capitol Police officer in video faces charges

Source: CNN

(CNN)The man seen chasing a Black Capitol Police officer up the stairs during Wednesday's insurrection and riot is Doug Jensen, according to a CNN comparative analysis of his booking photo and posts on social media. Jensen is one of the individuals now facing federal charges.

On a Twitter account bearing his name, Jensen twice identified himself in one of the pictures that was circulating online after the riot and insurrection.

His neighbor in Des Moines, Iowa, also confirmed to CNN affiliate KCCI that the man in the photos was Jensen.

Jensen -- dressed in a QAnon t-shirt -- is also seen in an Associated Press photo taken by photojournalist Manuel Balce Ceneta -- gesturing toward another Capitol Hill police officer.

They never look quite as energized in the booking photos as they did at the riot.

Somebody should put all these video clips together in a time sequence, with narration. That would help a lot. It was all so chaotic.

It did seem like the same scene when the group of reinforcements showed up.

They need body cams and more live rounds.

Undoubtedly there were genuine operatives/terrorists among the insurrectionists with definite objectives to steal, kidnap, or kill. Or just to terrorize. The rest? Useful idiots. The challenge will be to use these patsies to make their way up to the planners. Though I think it will take a trumpist who decides to sing rather than go to jail.

would face any consequences. After all, they were doing Dear Leader's bidding.

Besides feeling extreme outrage and revulsion towards them, I'm also deeply embarrassed. I'm embarrassed that so many of my fellow citizens fell under the spell of a sleazy, vulgar failure of a human being to such an extent that they wanted to murder people and destroy the Constitution for him. He's Charles Manson x 1,000,000. How could they?
