Sessler was in Washington, D.C. when the attack on the Capitol occurred, and subsequently stated that he did not breach into the Capitol. Sessler has made unsubstantiated claims that the riot was a "setup" perpetrated by paid "agitators" and the FBI meant to discredit Donald Trump and his supporters. He has made false and discredited claims of election fraud in regards to the 2020 presidential election, including claims that Trump won. Tax issues 
In 2022, The Tri-City Herald newspaper reported that taxes were past due on Sessler's Benton County property. Accusation of threats 
In 2022, Sessler was accused of making threats towards a Benton County code enforcement officer when he visited Sessler's property to investigate a claim that someone on his property was living in a house under construction. As reported by AOL, Sessler told the officer that he would get his gun and "deal with him" if the officer returned to the property. References
