NBC News reports:

An elected member of a Virginia school board —who allegedly bragged about drinking Fireball and Coors Light in the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6 attack and said he was in touch with a member of the far-right Oath Keepers that day — was arrested by federal authorities on Tuesday.

Miles Adkins, a member of the Frederick County School Board in Virginia, faces four misdemeanor charges: entering and remaining in a restricted building; disruptive conduct in a restricted building; disorderly conduct in a Capitol building; and unlawful picketing in a Capitol building.

Adkins was elected to the school board in 2021. He faced calls for his resignation in June after the Winchester Star reported he had been charged with driving under the influence. The Northern Virginia Daily noted that Adkins had been identified as a Jan. 6 rioter by online “sedition hunters” in 2022.

As you’ll see in the news video below, Adkins also faced calls to resign after posting a photo of fellow school board members with drawn-on devil horns and Hitler mustaches because they supported a mask mandate.
