sounds very sympathetic. Guess nothing has changed....but why was he throwing dollar bills out the window?

“He got out of the vehicle and surrendered and the tactical units that were close by took him into custody without incident,” said U.S. Capitol Police Chief Tom Manger.
===================
Manger said that Roseberry, who most recently lived in Grover, North Carolina, had some losses of family,” including his mother, who “recently passed away.”
“There were other issues that he was dealing with,” the chief said.

we're living in a tale of two countries. Shouldn't surprise, but it still does.

Michigan sheriff spotted at rally with men charged in domestic terror plot to kidnap, kill governor
Law enforcement leader says he has no regrets about sharing stage with suspect
While being asked about the situation in an interview Leaf said, “It is just a charge, and they say a plot to kidnap and you got to remember that. Are they trying to kidnap? Because a lot of people are angry with the governor, and they want her arrested. So are they trying to arrest or was it a kidnap attempt?”

the Capitol. The Driver ( Nut ) was facing the Capitol. The USCP were the lead agency and are now turning the crime scene over to the FBI. This was not an attack on the library but on the Capitol.
