1. I heard networks were trying to avoid giving his name for his safety.

2. Now there's an American who deserves a medal of freedom

Not fucking Gymbag Jordan...

9. I agree

Eugene Goodman is a true hero and a very brave man. Not to mention remarkably composed and quick-witted considering the situation. The fact that they have to worry about his name getting out because of concerns for his safety show just how truly f****d up this country is.

3. I sure hope Joe honors him with an award!

Hero!!!!!

Maybe Joe has a spot for this hero on his security team?

5. Several of the Capitol Police should get the award individually.

One died fighting off the terrorists and one was being tortured by them, but refused to give in to them. So, there was a lot of heroism that day.

7. Very true!

4. I honestly believe that many of the Cops on duty that day "saved" people.

One died holding back the thugs and one was shown on video being tortured by them.

6. All of them that didn't start shooting saved people, though some didn't deserve it much.

There were no doubt some concealed weapons among the terrorists, but I doubt they could have won in a shoot out with the Capitol police.

8. Biden should give him the first "NEW" medal of honor

dumbass has soiled the other

10. He saved the lives of our representatives.

He averted a bloodbath. And he did it by leading racists away from the chamber, literally putting his own life on the line.

You can’t find anyone more brave than that.

11. I wonder if he would have fired if they went down that hallway.

12. 🇺🇸 Thank you

I saw a right wing hack tweet really early after that this was evidence that this was a psyop operation

[tymorial]

13. THAT is what an American looks like.

It was his face, his actions, his dedication. That! Is what we are supposed to be.

The picture makes me tear up and I am not going to engage in some lame "it's dusty in here" male bullshit.

A young African American man risking his life for American Democracy in the face of absolute hate...

I cannot imagine a better symbol for what we should be. Words cannot express how impressed and amazing he is.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

14. And of course, he wasn't wearing a mask.

Pulled under his nose is exactly the same as no mask. I can only hope he doesn't get Covid.

Everyone: WEAR THE MASK AND WEAR IT CORRECTLY.

[BGBD]

15. I'm sure he's very sorry

that his mask slipped down while he was fighting an insurgent mob trying to assassinate most of the upper levels of the federal government.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

18. If it fit properly in the first place, it wouldn't slip down.

16. Kudos to this brave man. America thanks you.
