Today it’s birthday 47th thanks to God’s grace. Im blessed to have great supportive people like you and Jaime. If you read my book, you know who this guy is and why 23 years later, we are more than brothers in arms, but a band of brothers.

As with many elected officials I protected for nearly 2 decades as an officer, my interactions with him were limited, I do remember when he and I were alone in a elevator and he pretended he didn’t know who I was after my Jan 6 testimony. I will never forget his betrayal to me and my colleagues.

The office of Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) said preliminary findings from the medical examiner's office found that Graham suffered from an aortic dissection, in which a tear occurs in the inner layer of the main artery. Read more here: wapo.st/4y8CdCe

Betrayed once more. This is the same DOJ that tried to prosecute people for throwing a sandwich, recording ICE agents violating people’s rights and for removing peeling paint from the reflection pool. Yet the violent siege of the Capitol seems acceptable.

Happy 250th birthday, America! Today we honor two and a half centuries of independence and reflect on the generations of Americans who have shed blood, sweat, and tears to defend, protect, and continually evolve our great nation.

They didn't want to award the Capitol Police a medal or a plaque but want to reward the people who orchestrated and took part in the violence that injured me and ended my career. Why did we risk our lives for then? What a betrayal this is to us and to the rule of law days after “police week”.

I’m glad I helped Virginia evening the odds. It’s very hypocritical of republicans/maga crying about Virginia voters wanting this while cheering on Texas politicians (without voter’s consent and demand by the Trump) did it.

Shockingly unsurprising. It took them long enough since they have seen other insurrectionists being rewarded with government jobs, settlements and praises for their violent attempt to overthrow our democracy and elevating them as heroes and villains at the same time.

Dozens of Jan. 6 defendants and others present on Capitol grounds have filed a class action in Florida against DC + Capitol police for their use of force during the riot. Many of those on the list were convicted of felonies (and pardoned by Trump). storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
