And so we are in a state of emergency. Okay, white supremacy is violence. It always has been the number one threat to our society. But I'm also very proud that my wife is white. To the breakfast club, bitches. All right, Sean Dean, please tell me why was I your donkey of the day? Yes, donkey of the day for Tuesday, February 25th goes to Enrique Tarrio.

If you don't know the name, he is the former leader of the Proud Boys, not just the former leader of the Proud Boys, but a former leader of the Proud Boys who was sentenced to 22 years in prison because he was found guilty of helping coordinate the insurrection that happened on January 6th, 2021. Now, this is what I don't understand about some of you patriots, okay? And I put patriots in air quotes. What I don't understand about you all is do you respect law enforcement or not? Because if you respected law enforcement,

then ex-Capitol police officer Michael Fanon wouldn't have gotten dragged into the mob that stormed the Capitol on January 6th. That police officer was attempting to defend the Capitol from these domestic terrorists we call Vanilla ISIS, and he was dragged into the mob, beaten in taze until he suffered a heart attack. That don't sound like true patriotism to me. True patriots show their love and respect to law enforcement, and true patriots respect

the Capitol building. That is a worldwide symbol of democracy. But Enrique Terrio doesn't care about any of that because he was given a second chance by Donald J Trump. The man was pardoned by 4547 so he doesn't have to spend 22 years worrying about someone storming the capital of his anus. Stop the steal takes on a whole new meaning in a prison shower. Okay? But what happens when a pardoned former leader of the Proud Boys sees an ex-capitol police officer in the street? You would think that maybe, just maybe, Enrique would have learned something from his brief

stint in prison. You would think he would reflect. You would think that Enrique would have said to himself, you know what, law enforcement was just doing their job. We were being idiots and I'm so grateful to have a second chance at life. So let me mind my business. But no, a potential dialogue opportunity turned into a confrontation let's listen you are powering that day you were powered up

you're a traitor to this country yes so are you a little failure run from me run from me You can say that while you're over there! Enrique, do you know you were absolutely wrong? You were absolutely wrong on January 6th and you were absolutely wrong in how you handled former Capitol Police Officer Michael Fanon. Just know, okay, that he is a member of law enforcement. Former member of law enforcement, but still a member of law enforcement, okay? He is a member of law enforcement, a public servant who took an oath

to protect and serve the Capitol, and that's exactly what he did. And y'all beat on that man for doing his job, tased that man for doing his job, and caused him to have a heart attack for doing his job. Michael Fanon, you heard in the audio audio just now he used the right and exact language when talking to Enrique. You are a traitor to this country. You orchestrated a coup to overthrow the results of an election and you are making your president Donald J Trump look like a fool

because he said January 6th was a day of love. He said you all were patriots. Where is the love Enrique? Where is the respect for yourself? Where is the respect for your president and the pardon he gave you? All you did with this stunt was make him look crazy for even pardoning you in the first place. There's people right now who think you should be in prison with Kool-Aid on your lips identifying as someone's prison bay. In fact, insurrections and orgies have one thing in common. If you don't have a real plan, which y'all didn't, it ends up being just a bunch of dudes standing around with nothing to do but each other. I don't even know why my brain works like that, but the moral of the story is Enrique,

you got hit with 22 years because you helped orchestrate the chaos of January 6th. You got a sweet deal with a pardon. Do you know how many non-violent drug offenders in prison right now would love to have a pardon? And instead of humbling yourself you out here with your chest out like you did a bid for something honorable? Look man this isn't about politics this is about accountability. Enrique you are the poster child for ungratefulness. You got a blessing, a blessing in the form of a pardon. And instead of falling back, staying low, letting time pass, you chose to still be on BS

with a former police officer who almost died because of foolishness you helped to orchestrate. Please remember, Enrique, you got pardoned. Okay, not exonerated. If you are seen as a traitor and clown, guess what? You earned that. Okay, you planned an attack on the Capitol. You inspired people to go to war over a lie that the election was stolen.

And what makes it worse, you didn't even go get your hands dirty with them on January 6th. Ugh. Please let Remy Ma give Enrique Tarrio the biggest hee hawk. Hee hawk, hee hawk. You stupid motherf*****, are you dumb? That's right. All right.

Crazy. You in here with that norovirus? Mm-mm. I know that norovirus when I hear it now. She usually got a mask on. She chilling with none on today. What's up, man? Coughing.
