New Jersey Rep. Bill Pascrell Jr., tweeted that Goodman, an Army vet who spent time in Iraq, saved lives by keeping “murderous” insurgents at bay.

"As trump’s fascist mob ransacked the U.S. Capitol, this brave USCP officer kept murderous rioters away from the Senate chamber and saved the lives of those inside. God bless him for his courage," Pascrell wrote.

Over the weekend, the mob’s leader Jensen was arrested by the FBI on federal charges at his home in Iowa, CBS News reported. Charges against Jensen include knowingly entering a restricted building without lawful permission; disrupting the orderly proceedings of government business; violent entry in a Capitol building; and obstructing a law enforcement officer during a civil disorder.

Des Moines Police collaborated with the FBI to arrest Jensen Friday night and he was processed into the county jail, according to CBS News. Forrest & Associate Masonry, Jensen’s employer, announced on Friday that he had been fired.

Jensen previously posted photos of himself to social media standing close to the Washington Monument with the same attire he wore during the riot on Capitol Hill, USA Today reported. Many of his other social media pictures consisted of images endorsing President Donald Trump, and he recently posted a screengrab of him confronting police, before his Facebook page went dark.

Prior to his arrest, Jensen also posted a video to TikTok, where he expressed that he's being turned into the poster child for the riots at the Capitol Building, according to USA Today.
