He was also featured in footage chasing down a police officer, which was shown during Trump’s second impeachment trial.
Bozell is the son of well-known conservative activists Brent Bozell III, who founded the Media Research Center and the Parents Television Council.
The FBI has arrested at least 30 Pennsylvanians for their roles in the attack, which drove Congress from its chambers and delayed the certification of Joe Biden as the winner of the 2020 presidential election.
