Gionet was taken into custody from his home in Houston, Texas.
The FBI issued probable cause documents for Gionet on January 7.
Officials cited disorderly conduct in the Capitol, obstructing the building, and engaging in violence.
During a 20-minute livestream, Gionet shared video of supporters clad in MAGA and Trump gear inside the Capitol.
The video showed rioters snapping selfies with officers who asked them to leave the building.
People in the video were heard saying, “This is only the beginning."
The video also showed people chanting "Patriots are in control," "whose house? Our house," and "traitors, traitors, traitors," federal documents state.
Gionet was also heard saying "1776 baby," "I won't leave guys, don't worry," "I'm staying," and "Unleash the Kraken, let's go," the document alleged.
Around 100 people have been arrested in connection with the insurrection in Washington DC on January 6.

Feds are still working to identify dozens of others seen in the incidents.
Among those is Texas realtor Jenna Ryan – who also live-streamed the event after she took a private jet from Washington DC.
Retired Air Force Veteran Lt. Col. Larry Rendall Brock Jr, 53, was also arrested and charged – as prosecutors alleged he planned to use zip ties to "take hostages and perhaps execute lawmakers."
Retired firefighter Robert Sanford was arrested after he allegedly hit three Capitol cops with a fire extinguisher.
Olympic gold-medalist Klete Keller was arrested and charged after he was spotted in what appears to be his Team USA jacket.
A firefighter, Andrew Williams, was also nabbed by Feds – but his lawyer blamed Trump for pushing "despicable behavior."

"Spiderman" Josiah Colt, who was seen dangling from the Senate Chamber balcony, was arrested along with a protester in "Camp Auschwitz" shirt.
As Speaker Nancy Pelosi spoke of the man in the "Auschwitz" shirt – identified by NBC as Robert Keith Packer – she broke down in tears.
Officials recently shared horrifying video of a Capitol rioter who "crushed a cop against a door."
