Dems politically pressured Capitol Police to promote, give bonus to officer who killed J6 protestor

Representative Barry Loudermilk details how Democrat lawmakers politically meddled in the Capitol Police process and pressured the department to provide financial assistance and a promotion to Lt. Michael Byrd, the officer who fatally shot unarmed protestor Ashli Babbitt during the January 6 riot. “The special treatment that he received was far and above those of the officers who defended the Capitol against some of the violent protestors,” he says.
