D.C. police officer assaulted during Capitol riot says GOP congressman refused to shake his hand Georgia Congressman Andrew Clyde's claim to infamy was when he described the Jan 6 insurrection in DC as a normal tourist visit. Clyde was also one of 21 House Repugs who voted against a bill Tuesday that would award Congressional gold medals to honor Capitol Police officers and others who protected the Capitol on Jan. 6. Metropolitan Police Officer Michael Fanone, who has described the lingering effects of a traumatic brain injury, a heart attack and post-traumatic stress disorder from the attack, told CNN's Don Lemon Wednesday evening that he had gone to Capitol Hill with the hope of speaking to House Repugs about his experience. Fanone said he saw Rep. Andrew Clyde, R-Ga., in the elevator and extended his hand to the congressman — only to be rebuffed. it'd appear that the Repugs would like to cancel the Capitol police so that they don't have to answer any more questions about the insurrection
“As the elevator doors opened, he ran as quickly as he could, like a coward,” Fanone told CNN about the interaction. “I took that particular interaction like very personally but I also took it as a representation of Andrew Clyde giving the middle finger to myself and every other member of the Metropolitan Police Department and U.S. Capitol Police that responded that day."
I’ll get back to you later you idiot. Actually let’s do this now. You can take your big head along with your big ass belly and stick it where the sun does shine Buck! I bet you’re an unhappy overweight human being. Enlighten me
The capital police have every right to be pissed off about the situation at hand. I wish I could also take my other hand and smack some of your posters
