DC Metropolitan Police officer Michael Fanone, who was brutally assaulted during the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection, on Wednesday took aim at former Trump adviser Michael Flynn for calling for martial law before Jan. 6 and at Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) for urging his colleagues to vote against the Jan. 6 commission bill.
Dear Thin Blue Line,
Republicans just ain’t that into you.
Luvs,
America
C’mon, who ya gonna believe, an LEO who had a friendly tourist interaction or Mitch McConnell?
Certainly worse than a criminal: McConnell.
Quite friendly. He was stuck in a door, they tried to push him free of it, helped to take off his mask so he could breathe easier and everything.
Fanone is being way more polite than I would be if I were in his uniform.
When will the LEO’s of America realize that Qpublicans only support them with words and not deeds. These public servants are nothing more than a political prop for the Party of Treason.
…and you have a leader on Capitol Hill who’s making phone calls asking for personal favors and doling out political capital to push for a no vote on that commission,” Fanone said. “It was absolutely disgraceful.”
Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
Fanone was the officer that the tourists tried to help down the steps. The tourists even gave him a little encouragement with his own taser and an American flag pole.

So just a casual observer passing by?
Oh, he wasn’t the door one?
“It was absolutely disgraceful.”
Shaming the shameless isn’t going to do much more than move Collins from “concerned” to “troubled,” and she voted for the 1/6 Commission.
Josh has an article up about Israel heading towards it’s own 1-6.
Thoughts?
That was Officer Daniel Hodges.
Another Iranian provocation like sinking their ship yesterday, but public.
If someone doesn’t conveniently kill a couple of members of parliament and leave the parties short of a majority first.
If Mitch McConnell were here, he would explain to DC Metropolitan Police officer Michael Fanone, that this sort of investigation would place 15- 20 Republican Senators / members of the House at risk of being exposed as -
Mitch would point out - see … we can’t have that…
Mitch McConnell who ran away instead of greeting Trump’s guests with open arms.
EvEry dAY republiCan senatorS risK theiR liVes doin Policy On America In feaR of AntifA, the insurrecTionistS that aTtacked The CapiTol On 1/6 in orDer to Make MAGA tourists LooK bad.
I think you meant dUcking Policy On America, they don’t do do.
“Here I am escorting the mother of a dead policeman while she and myself advocate for the formation of a commission to investigate the circumstances which resulted in her son’s death — and you have a leader on Capitol Hill who’s making phone calls asking for personal favors and doling out political capital to push for a no vote on that commission,” Fanone said. “It was absolutely disgraceful.”
IDK – seems pretty much on-brand for McConnell and the rest of the GQP.
