Fanone said past Republican giants would be unimpressed with Kevin McCarthy.
“I think at night, when the lights are turned off, Abe Lincoln and Ronald Reagan have some pretty choice words to say about the fact that they have to hang on Kevin McCarthy’s wall,” Fanone said.
“They did some xucking above-average things. And they’ve got to adorn the wall of this xucking weasel hitch named Kevin McCarthy, with his fake xucking spray-on tan, whose xucking claim to fame, at least in my eyes, is the fact that he amassed a collection of Donald Trump’s favorite-flavored Starburst, put them in a Mason jar, and presented them to xucking Donald Trump.
“What the xuck, dude?”
Fanone’s remarks came as he promoted his memoir, Hold the Line, which will be published next week.
The title refers to Fanone’s actions on 6 January 2021, when he, a DC Metropolitan officer, answered calls from Capitol police and rushed to confront Trump supporters storming Congress in an attempt to stop certification of the outgoing president’s defeat to Joe Biden in the 2020 election.
Fanone suffered a heart attack and a traumatic brain injury. He has since left the police and emerged, with other officers, as a key witness in hearings held by the House January 6 committee. The riot has been linked to nine deaths, including suicides among law enforcement officers. More than 900 rioters have been charged, some with seditious conspiracy.
