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.
They have to protect Trump and the financial infrastructure?! Talk about a conflicted list of priorities.
