Summary
Enrique Tarrio, the pardoned former Proud Boys leader, confronted and insulted police officers who defended the Capitol on January 6, calling one a “coward.”
He followed officers Michael Fanone, Harry Dunn, and Aquilino Gonell at a Washington hotel hosting the Principles First summit. The officers denounced his actions and Trump’s mass pardons of January 6 rioters.
The incident followed Tarrio’s recent arrest for assault near the Capitol.
Officers at the summit warned that Trump’s pardons embolden extremists and urged resistance against his political movement.

Just wave a big black dildo in his face to distract him
Now normally, I am on the side of yelling shit at police.
“You were brave on Twitter,” Tarrio said to one of the officers as he continued to follow them. “You guys were brave at my sentencing when you sat there and laughed when I got 22 fucking years. Now you don’t want to look in my eyes, you fucking cowards.”
Fanone, a former Capitol police officer, then turns and tells him: “You’re a traitor to this country.”
“They are operating under the assumption that, if they commit violent criminal acts on Donald Trump’s behalf, that he will pardon them for future violence,” Fanone said. “These are insurrectionists, let’s be very clear.”
But I am unabashedly on the cops side here. Enrique, and the rest of the proud boys, are exceedingly huge pieces of shit.
holy shit… i suspect ET will get himself killed within the next few years
He’d be dead if tried that shit with a member of basically any other police force. Capital Police (and to a lesser extent, the Secret Service) are pretty restrained since their main job is to protect lawmakers and not investigate violent crime and get in dangerous situations arresting people. (In DC, Metro PD does that.)
The Secret Service, for some reason, also investigates forgery. From their web site:
Today, the Secret Service’s mission is two-fold: protection of the president, vice president and others; and investigations into crimes against the financial infrastructure of the United States.

Also from their Website :
“We are one of America’s oldest federal law enforcement agencies, originally created in 1865 to stamp out rampant counterfeiting in order to stabilize America’s young financial system. By the end of the Civil War, nearly one-third of all currency in circulation was counterfeit. As a result, the country’s financial stability was in jeopardy. To address this concern, the Secret Service was established in 1865 as a bureau in the Treasury Department to suppress widespread counterfeiting.”
They were investigating forgery before protecting presidents. Just so happens in 1901 there weren’t a lot of federal agencies with as much power and experience as them so they got tapped for the new job of protecting the president.
investigations into crimes against the financial infrastructure of the United States.
this cracked me up.
They have to protect Trump and the financial infrastructure?! Talk about a conflicted list of priorities.
🤞
Every time I hear the name “proud boys”, I expect them to arrive on a giant penis float as part of a parade. I bet the name was suggested to them as a joke that they failed to get.
It’s one of the fascists’ tricks.
You don’t instinctively recognize them as a threat when you hear “Proud Boys” or nerd ass shit like “power level”, “frenworld”, and “Grand Wizard”…
It’s on purpose.
Are you suggesting that the proud boys’ circle jerking is just an inadvertent perk of an otherwise sinister masterplan?! How dastardly!
I’m just saying that even though their beliefs are dumb (in addition to being evil) they’re otherwise relatively smart men in some regards. Also they get a lot of free councel from fascist PACs.
We’re doing ourselves a disfavour by underestimating them imho.
The fascs have a knack for quickly identifying the codes of new means of communication (mass media in the 30s, internet now) and we need to put some extra effort in it as leftist activists.
omg. I never realized how dnd that shit sounds.
Watch a video about South Park Stick of Truth, they made an entire system that I could easily see Christian nationalists missing the satire.
Oh I remember that and the episodes that sorta previewed it somewhat.
It’d be awesome in turn to see a crowd following and insulting the shitmouth, calling him a “fucking NPC”.
That’s horrible behavior. Pride goes before the fall.
