and hate American democracy. They are making it clear that they are ALL In on the Darkside, and likely with their grunty russian cronies who make open cyber war against all that is good and worthy.

The Capitol Police officer who physically defended our government or the House Minority leader who just bounced a Republican Congressman for refusing to lie?

Fanon: " This is CPO Michael Fanone. I would like to see kevin."

Useless staffer: "Here is the email for our director of operations."

Fanone: "I don't want the d. o's email address. I want to speak to Kevin."

Staffer: click.

How can repeatedly dodging Officer Fanone's calls be a good look for him? Aren't *they* the ones that are supposed to be 100% police-friendly?

If not, Chairwoman Maloney needs to call him post haste as the country must see the truth of the human horror these traitors inflicted on he and his fellow Capitol Police officers. People like McCarthy want him and the other victims out of sight and out of mind: so Officer Fanone and his fellow officers need to be placed front and center in the public’s sight and mind to bear testament to and rebuke the evil these traitors have perpetrated and continue to subvert our democracy with.

They need a new face!

Boy, he really hit the nail on the head there!

Republicans are furious the way he mishandled the vote. Kevin knew he could not win a true vote!

GQP leaders have that as a prime directive, it seems to me. They are forced to deny what we all have seen, because they cannot deal with it in any reasonable way. Their denial is evidence of their complicity.

This is National Police Week, Fanone wanted to speak with him before the week was over.
