Proud Boys leader says he's not sorry about Capitol riots

Though he wasn’t there, Enrique Tarrio admits that the Proud Boys were involved

This week, the leader of the far-right group the Proud Boys group came forward to make it clear he feels no remorse for the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.

During an interview broadcast by CNN Thursday night, Enrique Tarrio proudly acknowledged the Proud Boys’ role in the siege and also made it clear that he had no sympathy for the lawmakers who reportedly feared for their lives during the incident.

Previously, Tarrio, who identifies as Afro-Cuban, posted a photo on the social media app Parler of House members hiding from extremist Trump supporters, along with the caption: “When the people fear the government, there is tyranny… When the government fears the people… There is liberty.”

and therefore avoided any culpability in the attempted coup. Sounds suspicious to me.

And whoever heard of a black white supremacist since "The Dave Chappelle Show"?

Phony as a three dollar bill.
