Speakers podium was on eBay (until it wasn't) [View all]

President Donald Trump's Justice Department revealed specifics about some of the insurrectionists that broke into the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday.

Local Washington, D.C. NBC News reporter Scott MacFarlane cited the DOJ's information about the arrests during the siege.

The report said that there was "large amount of pilfering" at the Capitol Wednesday. The man who stole the Speaker's podium reportedly put it up for sale on eBay. It was eventually removed but not before reaching $100,000.
