Former Washington Police Officer Michael Fanone showed little patience for the $1.7 billion “slush fund” Trump and his administration are trying to create to pay-off the Capitol insurrectionists who nearly killed him.
“Adjectives have lost meaning in describing the actions of this administration. I guess there's a combination of two [words] that come to mind, and it’s ‘f—— disgraceful’ that taxpayer money would be used to compensate violent insurrectionists,” Fanone told MS NOW anchor Nicole Wallace. “And let's make no mistake about what this fund is going to be used for. This fund is going to be used to pay violent criminals for committing violent crimes on behalf of Donald Trump on January 6th, 2021.”
“This is Donald Trump and Trump's administration and his personal attorney, Todd Blanche — who cosplays as the acting attorney general — setting this up, knowing full well that not only did they absolve these individuals who committed criminal acts on this administration's behalf of criminal culpability, but that they're now going to pay them,” continued Fanone, the spokesperson for Home of the Brave.
Fanone went on to tell Wallace that he is already receiving threats from vigilante’s seeking to hurt him to get a piece of the cash.
“I can tell you right now my DMs and my social media have been flooded with individuals who would like to kill me so that they themselves can get a payout from this administration, because they think that that's what would most likely happen,” said Fanone.
Before leaving, Fanone dropped a final demand of U.S. Attorneys filling his inbox with apologies while serving a lawless president.
“I'll take this opportunity that all the us attorneys that have been texting me on signal today saying how sorry they are: I don't want your sympathy. I'd rather you just quit your job. I'm not your friend. I don't want to hear from you. I want you to quit your job and stop supporting this administration,” said Fanone, adding Trump is still president “because Americans are selfish, self-centered, and they're cowards.”
