"Proud Boy" Leader Ordered Held In Jail




The leader of the brownshirt-like far right street thug group the "Proud Boys," Henry "Enrique" Tarrio, was ordered by a U.S. Magistrate Judge in Miami to remain imprisoned pending trial. U.S. prosecutors argued that Cubano gusano Tarrio was a clear flight risk and danger to the community, adding:

“'There is overwhelming evidence that Tarrio organized a plot to corruptly obstruct, influence, and impede the certification of the electoral college vote, an offense that strikes at the heart of our democracy,' Assistant U.S. Attorney Jason McCullough argued in court filings. Even as Congress’s proceedings were still suspended Jan. 6, Tarrio posted to other members, 'They’ll fear us doing it again,' prosecutors said. When a member asked, 'So what do we do now?' he allegedly answered at 4:14 p.m., 'Do it again.'”  (our emphasis)

Tarrio, along with "Oath Keepers" thug leader Stewart Rhodes and others, has been charged with seditious conspiracy for his role in the January 6 attempt to overturn our democracy and install the Malignant Loser as president-for-life. In one of the Presidential debates, the Malignant Loser infamously declined to denounce the "Proud Boys" and instead asked them to "stand back and stand by."
