Proud Boys leaders Enrique Tarrio, Dominic Pezzola, Ethan Nordean, Joe Biggs, and Zachary Rehl, all five of whom were already facing charges in connection with the January 6th, 2021 Capitol insurrection, were hit with a superseding indictment of seditious conspiracy on Monday, the Washington Post reports. Joining 12 top members of their frenemy fascist group the Oath Keepers slapped with the same charge in January 2022, the indictment of Tarrio and pals brings the total to 17 MAGA scumbags hit with the highest level conspiracy charge. Let’s have one more “but if it was an insurrection then how come none of them got charged with sedition, libs?” for the road.
While Tarrio is the most well-known member of the Proud Boys, Nordean is the funniest for his rant in a Jan 20th, 2021 private text message which was later obtained by federal prosecutors: “Alright I’m gunna say it. FUCK TRUMP! Fuck him more than Biden. I’ve followed this guy for 4 years and given everything and lost it all. Yes he woke us up, but he led us to believe some great justice was upon us…and it never happened, now I’ve got some of my good friends and myself facing jail time cuz we followed this guys lead and never questioned it. We are now and always have been on our own. so glad he was able to pardon a bunch of degenerates as his last move and shit on us on the way out. Fuck you Trump you left us on [t]he battle field bloody and alone,” wrote Nordean.
