The U.S. Attorney's office announced an update on charges related to the U.S. Capitol insurrection soon.
As I cover that, my colleague @ColinKalmbacher will live-tweet the Aaron Mostofsky hearing.
"We have opened 160 case files, and that is just the tip of the iceberg."
We have received more than 100K pieces of digital media.
He solicits more at 1-800-CALL-FBI
He credits pre-siege intelligence to the arrest of Proud Boy leader Enrique Tarrio before Jan. 6 https://t.co/lLYLUsndyn
He says he anticipates hundreds of cases.
The numbers will "geometrically increase."
"This is just the beginning."
Now after those charges are filed, then we have the ability to indict these individuals on more significant charges.
"I just want to clarify that the initial charges we're filing, some of these misdemeanors, are only the beginning. They are not the end."
The FBI, working with U.S. Attorney's office, are looking at cases that potentially include sedition and conspiracy cases.

Trump wants to pause proceedings to appeal the ruling kicking DOJ out, but for now, it's still on.
Today is an initial telephone conference following Judge Kaplan's ruling that the DOJ can't represent Trump and ordering his personal lawyer Marc Kasowitz back on the docket.
Kasowitz's latest filing from last night: https://t.co/tsTqJanOVe

.@EJeanCarroll's lawyer @KaplanRobbie is now on the line.
The conference is slated to begin in roughly 5 minutes.

The Supreme Court also found vaccine mandates legal since 1905, making it more than century-old settled law.
(The decision was over the state enforcing vaccine mandates, but the same principle applies.)
