One Dallas-area woman flew by private jet to participate in the initial protest at the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday that turned violent as the mob breached the building.

Realtor and radio host Jenna Ryan took a private jet with three others to Washington D.C. to protest the certification of President-elect Joe Biden's victory over President Donald Trump.

AFTER THE CHAOS: Internet detectives are identifying scores of pro-Trump rioters at the Capitol. Some have already been fired.

"OK guess who's going to DC by private jet?!?! Meeee," Ryan wrote on Facebook on Jan. 3. She and three others can be seen in the private plane in a photo posted Jan. 5.

Newsweek's Lydia Smith reports that Ryan flew from US Trinity Aviation in Denton.

Ryan posted several videos and photos from the Capitol grounds on her Facebook and Twitter accounts. In one photo posted to Twitter, she poses next to a broken window.

"Window at The capital," Ryan wrote. "And if the news doesn't stop lying about us we're going to come after their studios next..."

Ryan also livestreamed from the Capitol grounds. It is unclear if she ever entered the building.

"All these working-class people taking the week off," Ryan said in the stream. "We flew here for freedom. They want to steal the election, they want to steal everything."

So let me get this straight — flies on a private jet to an insurrection, posts on social media, and threatens the free press reporting on the insurrection, and then thinks she can step back into normal life like she just came back from a vacation in Cabo. We need new words for stupid — the ones we have are worn out.

I was almost sure that rich people were all in on Trump being an idiot and were just riding it out for the tax cuts

Do affluent people cosplaying revolution realize if it gets out of hand, they will face hardships they never imagined? Are they thinking what the inside of a penitentiary looks like? What facing a SWAT team with automatic weapons feels like? Respect reality or it will hurt you
