Just because Donald Trump managed to escape a reckoning for the Jan. 6 Capitol riot doesn’t mean Bob’s Burgers’ Jimmy Pesto did. https://t.co/WAQQKIsmvd pic.twitter.com/WdOME7H8wp

One of the alleged Jan. 6 participants who has paid some sort of price for the violent events of that day is none other than Jay Johnston, an actor and comedian whose credits include 'Mr. Show,' 'Arrested Development,' and 'Anchorman.' https://t.co/WAQQKIsUkL

According to two people familiar with the matter, top staff at 'Bob’s Burgers' are no longer allowing Johnston to voice his recurring character—Jimmy Pesto Sr.—on long-running animated sitcom.

One of the sources described it as a “ban.” https://t.co/WAQQKIsmvd
Johnston, Fox and the staff of Bob’s Burgers have never publicly confirmed that that was, in fact, Johnston’s face that the FBI published in a poster soliciting tips about a possible riot suspect. Johnston has not been arrested or charged with a crime. https://t.co/WAQQKIsmvd pic.twitter.com/HRKtHPjKyz

“I’m no detective, but I do know Jay. He said he was there. And that’s him in the picture. So…” Cassandra Church, an actress who worked alongside Johnston on the show Harmontown, tweeted in March. https://t.co/WAQQKIsmvd pic.twitter.com/zp5OYwZhI9

Remember the unconfirmed reports the FBI had tweeted out pics of actor/comedian/Mr. Show alum Jay Johnston as part of their Jan. 6 manhunt?
Well, in the time since, Jay was banned from his recurring role on BOB’S BURGERShttps://t.co/luSZWLbgcV
