Man who stormed U.S. Capitol charged with threatening to assassinate Rep. Ocasio-Cortez - CNBC

Garret Miller, 34, of Richardson, Texas was arrested earlier this week on multiple charges related to the Capitol riot, according to a federal complaint.

The threat charge against Miller is based on the claim by prosecutors that he threatened Rep.

Miller also allegedly posted about entering the Capitol building on his Instagram account and admitted that he "had a rope in [his] bag on that day.".

"We going to get a hold of [the USCP officer] and hug his neck with a nice rope[.]," Miller said, according to the complaint.

Ocasio-Cortez responded to the complaint detailing Miller allegedly bragging online about his role in the riot, writing in a tweet: "On one hand you have to laugh, and on the other know that the reason they were this brazen is because they thought they were going to succeed.".
