A Massachusetts man was charged Thursday with the attempted assassination of a Cabinet member nominee and carrying a dangerous weapon on the Capitol grounds after being arrested in late January.
Ryan English, 24, brought two Molotov cocktails and a knife onto the property in an effort to kill Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent prior to his confirmation, according to the Department of Justice (DOJ).
He was found in possession of 50 milliliter bottles of vodka with a grey cloth affixed to the tops and a green lighter. A letter in his pocket was addressed to a family member that said, in part, “This is terrible but I can’t do nothing while nazis kill my sisters. … I’m so sorry for lying and plotting and lying.”
