A Trump supporter who took part in the siege of the US Capitol on Wednesday has been identified as a Texas real estate broker who took a private jet to the protest, where she posed next to smashed windows of the federal building.
Jenna Ryan, from Frisco, shared photos on social media attending the march, which she claimed was attended by ‘working class people’ and described as ‘one of the best days of my life’.
But the woman, who the New York Post reports is also a radio host, had shared snaps with her friends en route to the event in a private plane after flying out of US Trinity Aviation in Denton.
She captioned a picture of herself and some friends: ‘Here we go!!! #stopthesteal #dfwpatriots #PatriotParty #MarchForTrump.’

Dozens of those involved in the violent siege, labeled as ‘great patriots’ by the president are yet to be identified and the FBI is now asking for the helping in finding them.
DC police revealed on Thursday the majority of protesters hailed from outside the nation’s capital and only one person arrested in the insurrection was from the District of Columbia.
In the video Ryan revealed she was marching ‘for you’ and ‘for freedom’, claiming they are ‘sick and tired of the Communist take over’.
She continued: ‘All these working class people taking the week off. They want to steal the election, they want to steal everything.’
As the video continued rolling Ryan, who was dressed in Trump memorabilia, said: ‘Stop the steal. They are taking our country from us. This is the prelude to the war that is about to happen. We are not messing around.’

While violence broke out, she beamed as she stood in front of a window at the Capitol which had been smashed.
The caption read: ‘Window at The capital. And if the news doesn’t stop lying about us we’re going to come after their studios next.’
During the rally she tweeted: ‘We just stormed the capital. It was one of the best days of my life.’

Jenna Ryan has been approached for comment.
More than 90 protesters were arrested and four people died when the violent pro-Trump mob stormed the US Capitol.
Most of those already arrested have been accused of curfew violations. Others face charges of carrying a pistol without a license.
Some of those who took part in the siege have already been identified online as members of far right groups, white nationalists, Neo-Nazis and supporters of conspiracy theory QAnon.
Others who have also been named are from middle class backgrounds.
Here DailyMail.com breaks down those who have been identified:
The ‘QAnon Shaman’ – Jake Angeli
The heavily-tattooed Trump supporter who sported horns, a fur hat and face paint and occupied the Senate dais moments after Vice President Mike Pence delivered his rebuke to Donald Trump has been revealed to be an Arizona-based QAnon believer who used to promote himself as a singer and actor.
Angeli has previously admitted his belief in QAnon started after reading conspiracy theories on the internet
Jake Angeli, 32, often known as the QAnon Shaman, has become a fixture at recent right-wing rallies while decked out in his signature attire.
One of his tattoos is said to show the symbol of Wotanism, an acronym for ‘Will of the Aryan Nation.’
Dr Adam Rutherford tweeted: ‘I know this jamiroquoi wannabe muthaf***a is kinda funny but his tattoo is the symbol of Wotanism, which is a Nazi/Odin occult that believes Jews control the government, the Holocaust is exaggerated and champions the 14/88 slogan. He’s a real card-carrying Nazi.’
Angeli was at the front of a group of agitators who broke into the Capitol and faced off with DC police who desperately tried in vain to protect the establishment.
He then made his way into the Senate chamber where he was seen shouting and posing for photos.
Angeli flexed his left arm as he stood behind the dais in the Senate chamber where just moments earlier Vice President Mike Pence and Nancy Pelosi had stood.
He was flanked by an American flag and his fellow rioters took photos of him on their smartphones.
The ‘Qanon Shaman’ was also seen screaming in the chamber and clutching a megaphone.
Angeli has become a prominent figure at pro-Trump rallies, always sporting his signature outfit of fur, horns, face paint and bare chest, where he has spouted off about QAnon conspiracy theories.
Most recently he has been active at Arizona rallies calling for the results of the presidential election to be overturned, after Trump has refused to concede and pushed unfounded claims of voter fraud ever since he lost to Joe Biden.
At a pro-Trump rally at the Arizona State Capitol in February, he held aloft a banner reading ‘Q Sent Me’ in reference to QAnon.
He was also seen at reopen Arizona rallies protesting against lockdowns put in place to slow the spread of COVID-19.
In one photo posted on his Facebook account in November, where he calls himself Yellowstone Wolf, Angeli is seen shaking hands with Rudy Giuliani, Trump’s personal attorney – who hours before the violence kicked off encouraged supporters to pursue a ‘trial by combat’.
He has also posted about numerous conspiracy theories including a video claiming there is a ‘globalist plot for world domination thru the plandemic & its numerous different agendas’.
Angeli has previously admitted his belief in QAnon started after reading conspiracy theories on the internet.
‘At a certain point, it all clicked in a way,’ he said in an interview in February, reported AZCentral.
‘Oh, my God. I see now the reality of what’s going on.’
QAnon is the debunked extreme right wing conspiracy theory that claims Satan-worshipping pedophiles are plotting against Trump and are running a global child sex trafficking ring.
An undated profile for Angeli on Backstage.com shows the 32-year-old was a singer, screenwriter and actor.
Barnett has also bought into Trump’s unfounded claims that the election has been ‘stolen’ from him and has been spotted at other Stop The Steal rallies including one in Bentonville in November.
