As frightening as it is, it may not reveal much about his intent on the day, except to the extent that he did not have the thumb drive with him in DC. Or about the risk he poses if he is released - it's a bit of a leap to assume he would use that sort of knowledge in the context of awaiting a trial.

For instance, he may be a weirdo preparing for a civil war. But unless there is one, it's just stuff on a thumb drive. Personally, I find these people loathesome and they must answer for their crimes. But I don't think one can know all that much about the risk he poses from this bit of information.

Proud Boy Charged in Capitol Riot Had USB Full of Bomb-Making Instructions: Docs

A Proud Boy member accused of shepherding hordes of angry MAGA fans into the Capitol and saying he’d kill Vice President Mike Pence “if given the chance,” had a USB filled with instructions on making homemade firearms, poisons, and explosives, prosecutors alleged in a Friday detention memo. Dominic ‘Spazzo’ Pezzola is facing several charges after he broke into the Capitol with a police shield. He was seen in photos wearing a Proud Boys t-shirt, a U.S. Marine Corps-logo button and an “0351” tattoo on his right arm signifying the Infantry Assault Marine military occupational specialty.

In the memo, prosecutors allege Pezzola was part of the mob that confronted Capitol Police officer Eugene Goodman outside the Senate Chamber. “Where they meeting at?” Pezzola said, according to the memo, referring to the members of Congress voting to certify Biden’s win. “Where they counting the votes?”

After his arrest, prosecutors said FBI agents found the thumb drive at Pezzola’s home. “A sample of titles includes, but is not limited to: multiple serials of a series entitled ‘Advanced Improvised Explosives,’ those serials including ‘Explosive Dusts’ and ‘Incendiaries’; ‘The Box Tube MAC-11,’ with subtitle, ‘The Ultimate DIY Machine Pistol;’ ‘Ragnar’s Big Book of Homemade Weapons;’ ‘The Advanced Anarchist’s Arsenal: Recipes For Improvised Incendiaries And Explosives.’” Prosecutors said hundreds of similarly titled PDF files were on the thumb drive. “Pezzola poses both a serious danger to the community and a serious risk of flight,” prosecutors argued.
