D.C. Police Officer Who Was Attacked On Jan. 6 Speaks Out - MSNBC



DC police officer Michael Fanone, who was beaten and tased in in the Capitol Hill riot, joins Andrea Mitchell to react to Speaker Pelosi's announcement that the House will form a Select Committee on January 6th and the fact GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy still has not met with him.

He also rejects the claim from Rep. Andrew Clyde (R-GA) that January 6th was like a “regular tourist day” at Capitol Hill, saying that that is “an out and out lie.” Fanone discusses his PTSD from the attacks and shares his desire for police reform to be approached in an “honest and genuine way.” Aired on 06/24/2021.

Who dresses in camo, flak jackets and carries a wide assortment of weapons and pepper/bear spray to take a "tour" thru the Capitol?

And what kind of adult urinates and defecates anywhere but a toilet?
