Otero County Commissioner Couy Griffin -- the co-founder of "Cowboys for Trump" who took part in the riots at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6th that took five lives -- has been moved to isolation in jail for refusing to take a COVID-19 test.

According to a report from Yahoo, Griffin has been fighting for his release, and now is saying "he was struggling in isolation," after he refused the test for the safety of all around him.

According to Yahoo, Griffin is currently being held for "knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority" and "intent to impede or disrupt the orderly conduct of Government business."

If you want to save your soul from hell a ridin' on our range,
Then cowboy change your ways today, or with us you will ride,
Tryin' to catch the devil's herd, across these endless skies

Yippie-I-ay, yippie-I-o
Ghost riders in the sky
Ghost riders in the sky"

He might be forced to deal with people he disagrees with.

Take a sample of his poop, test it, and send him to the mess hall to eat with the people he hates.
