I just took this photo from my Senate office.

Every single one of these Iranian useful idiot domestic terrorists needs to be tracked down and thrown in jail. If the FBI can find everyone who attended J6, they can find these criminals. I hope Kamala doesn't rescue these criminals…like she did Antifa. pic.twitter.com/BZ7n5wb4OA
