Proud Boy Trump Pardoned Arrested for Assault at Capitol

AP) " Former Proud Boys national leader Enrique Tarrio was arrested Friday near the U.S. Capitol on a charge that he assaulted a woman protesting a gathering attended by Tarrio and others who received presidential pardons for crimes stemming from the Jan. 6, 2021, riot in the nation's capital.

"Capitol police said officers saw Tarrio strike the protester's cellphone and arm after the woman placed the phone close to his face as they walked near the Capitol. Tarrio had just left a news conference that had ended "without incident," police said.

Tarrio, of Miami, was serving a 22-year sentence " the longest among hundreds of Capitol riot cases " when President Donald Trump granted clemency last month to all 1,500-plus people charged in the Jan. 6 attack.

A jury convicted Tarrio and three of his lieutenants of seditious conspiracy for a violent plot to stop the peaceful transfer of presidential power from Trump to President Joe Biden after the 2020 election."

No problemo, right, Trumpers?

His Pardon covers him from anything he does, eh?

Ya'll must be SO proud, what with Trump putting violent criminals back on the streets.
