In early July federal law enforcement officers arrested Jason Charter, the alleged ‘ringleader’ of the attempted toppling of the Andrew Jackson equestrian statue in Lafayette Park across the street from the White Housea a week earlier. President Trump has made it a priority to catch and prosecute those involved in the attack on the statue.

Jason Charter was also part of the Antifa goon squad attack on One America News Network Jack Posobiec last Friday at the Emancipation Statue in D.C. but is not yet reported to have been charged on that incident.
Federal Law enforcement sources say Jason Charter was arrested Thursday morning, and charged with destruction of federal property, adding that Charter has connections to Antifa and was in a leadership role when a large group of protesters tried to pull down the statue.

If I cared about bullies then I wouldn't be an extremely open Antifascist.

Charter was behind a prank at CPAC a few years ago to get Trump supporters to wave Russian flags.

But recently Jason Charter put on a suit and whined before cameras on his innocense.
Charter is a danger to society.
