Thanks for sharing!

19. Thanks, Nevilledog!

Does he have to walk into a jail in his undies?

[Nevilledog]

20. Depends on how big of an asshole he's being is my guess.

4. We'll see UPDATE

I'm guessing USA Today reporter, Will Carless, wouldn't tweet that unless he was fairly sure it happened. He says there'll be a writeup soon.

UPDATE: Two more confirmations

FLASH: Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio is indicted in Capitol riot conspiracy.

Feds: “Although Tarrio is not accused of physically taking part in the breach of the Capitol, the indictment alleges that he led the advance planning and remained in contact with other members..”

Here's Carliss' article:

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2022/03/08/henry-enrique-tarrio-proud-boys-charged-conspiracy-capitol-attack/9424131002/

FBI agents arrested Henry "Enrique" Tarrio, former national chairman of extremist group the Proud Boys, in a dawn raid Tuesday in Florida on conspiracy charges in relation to the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.

Tarrio, who will make his initial court appearance today, was named in a superseding indictment that includes five previously charged Proud Boys defendants.

The indictment is unusual because Tarrio was not present at the Capitol on Jan. 6. He was arrested two days prior to the insurrection on unrelated charges by Metropolitan D.C. police and was barred by a judge from protesting in the city on Jan. 6.

Federal authorities have reportedly been investigating Tarrio's activities in the run-up to the insurrection, including a brief meeting in a downtown Washington parking garage between the Proud Boys leader and Stewart Rhodes, the founder of the Oath Keepers militia group who is also facing conspiracy charges...

6. He's Dave Chapelle's blind klansman in the flesh. Although...

he's not blind, how does a dark-skinned Latino become, or want to become, the leader of a white supremacist organization?

7. True Story....

Handled a case of an Aryan brother who was charged with dealing drugs. Like most tough guys, when he saw his exposure, decided to become an informant. One of his biggest partners was Hispanic. He told me that they considered Hispanics to be white so had no problem dealing with them.

10. +1, this is happening in droves in south Texas. Dems need to go door to door there with people

... in that community and in Miami Dade so 2020 doesn't happen again.

14. I believe it. But there are Black people lighter-skinned than this guy.

I guess I'll never get it. Love who you are is what I say.

11. There's Nick Fuentes, too. Permanently

suspended from youtube in Feb 2020. These "white" supremacist. are FUBARED. All of them.

12. Pretty sure Proud Boys is primarily a male-supremacy organization ...

There's dudes of all ethnicities in it.

My understanding is that the thread that binds them is believing right-wing bullshit, and thinking that men are superior.
