  1. Look at this Man’s Eyes… He’s been “Through It!” and All Republicans should be Ashamed that you put him through this!

    1. @jim perkins Aw, you’re triggered that your fellow extremist is going to be someone’s girlfriend in prison for over 7 years. That’s cute.

    1. @Jc 524 yes they did but you have to understand that they train for such events. They let them in and then they let them out, like a passive tactic to reroute the flat earth insurrectionist idiots back outside. They train for that sort of thing. It’s not a deep state conspiracy, not antifa, not the FBI. It 100% drumpf idiocy.

    2. @Suzy Q that is a tactic the capital police train for. It allows relief and reroutes the angry mob so the Congress has a chance to escape. They train to reroute them back outside. Unfortunately they were over run and couldn’t get backup in time. Just look into it, they were trying to follow protocol in the event of being stormed.

  2. This incident has to have had a serious effect on his physical and Mental Health, knowing you were in the midst of crazed men intent on taking lives.

    1. @Loriann Richardson stop picking on people for common turns of phrases because they don’t meet your standards. Relax. I’m just trying to say I’m glad to see he’s out of hospital. Do you not have something better to do?

      You don’t need to make it so hard for someone to say something nice.

    2. @Commander ZiN THIS is lefties appear to US. See how they took what you said and turned the victimization level up 1000%?

    3. @Commander ZiN your words were just right. And he is world famous, I make sure to share the news with friends everywhere.

    4. @Commander ZiN “return to work” but not the one he had. he quotes trump for premature resignation, while not medical he made a point to not be medical

  3. FANONE , NEVER FORGOTTEN !!!!! HONORABLE PEOPLE LIVE ON IN OUR HISTORY !!!!! THANKYOU FOR YOUR SERVICE, AND TO ALL THE HONORABLE PEOPLE , THANKYOU !!!!!

  4. These scum bags that did this to the brave officers that defended the Capitol should be prosecuted to the FULLEST. May God bless you sir, my heart and admiration goes out to you always. You are a hero, honored and admired by anyone with morals in our u.s.a. Those that call you bad names, as my dad would say….dismiss it to their ignorance. Because anyone that would think that for a second is truly deranged and very ignorant. God bless you

    1. Fanone is in a picture with Kathy Griffin who posted, look who came over for a cup of F Trump. His dad is a lawyer that’s been after Trump for literally years. Fanone wasn’t even in uniform that day, he was dressed like an antifa supporter. He’s also in photos visiting with Pelosi and other Dems a few months before testifying.
      There are tons of videos including that of body worn cameras by police out at this point that clearly show some police officers literally beating people, shooting people with rubber bullets, setting off flash bangs and with zero warning. No officers were hurt by protesters, one had a stroke after and the others killer themselves supposedly. The Sargent in arms testified early on that there were instigators within but unfortunately he passed away mysteriously not that long ago.
      I find it stunning that so many people still don’t get that they aren’t getting the whole story. If it was all as the press and Dems claim then why wouldn’t they happily release all the video from that day at the Capitol? How is it they were able to identify, get the required warrants etc so quickly for some people that day but they haven’t been able to identify who left the supposed bombs? They had a cell phone on them as shown in videos. That’s aside from the fact that supposedly the bombs were placed the night before with a 1 hour timer that was not able to be detonated remotely, they were found a mere 20 minutes before 1 pm before the first breech on the Capitol occurred.the bomb squad wasn’t called in like usual, the areas weren’t cleared either which seems odd. Revolver.com has tons of info on it all documented by video from the cameras in DC and yet 18 plus months later we don’t even know the gender of the person.

    2. @Christena SmallsYou are being deceived, this guy is a dem, his dad is an atty in DC, he’s good friends with the crazy Griffin lady who held up a fake severed head of the potus. It never ceases to amaze me how blind some people are lately.

    3. Yeah this gentleman is going to need a lot of love and support from his family and from us the public.I am sure he has PTSD from all the hell he went through.He was only doing his job.And to be called a Piece of Sh*t like that on more than one occasion has got to be painful.It hurts like hell.He is a human being.And how much can one human being take?The man looks shell-shocked.I do worry for him.Because quite honestly I think at this point he has decided to stick around for the sake of his wife and children.But he is going to need that support from the public as well.I have known many veterans who put up a brave front and then out of nowhere acted out of impulse for just a split second to take their own lives.Mr fanone please know that people like you are wanted and needed in this world.Now more than ever.

  5. my gods, my heart goes out to this guy. I can’t even imagine defending democracy costing me my livelihood and then having to listen to assholes bully you just because you speak the truth about the horrors you experienced. And have to keep experiencing and reliving. He seems to be handling it all with class. but lords, I hope he has an excellent support system.

  6. What a great man of integrity and honesty! After all what he suffered through, I don’t know if I could handle myself like this ! Greatest respect for this man !!

  7. The thing that bothers me is the rioters are getting sentenced and punished as they should but not one congressman or senator is being punished for their part.

    1. Mercedes Haecker: I’m not sure they can find their back bone until Trump is out of the picture. They still cower in fear of incurring his wrath. It does not make sense to sane, moral people why Justice is taking so long and why is not equal for all.
      But between the work of Tish James, AG and her team (NY ) and the J6 committee things ARE looking better than ever for justice to be served. I’d like to see more states seek to ban the Trumps from doing business in their state.
      Maybe the Trump Family can join Edward Snowden in the land that takes in foreigners who are treasonous people.

    2. @yames hraberts Even if the Epps conspiracy was true, which it is not, what does that say about the MAGAs who were gullible enough to attack the Capitol because of one man?

  8. Michael….I’m so, so sorry what happened to you and all police officers that day. It honestly makes me sad and sick in my soul. THANK YOU, peace to you my friend.

  9. I’ve seen too many get very light sentences, crying remorse and sorrow for their actions, then when sentence is done, they get on FB, or Tik Tok and say they’d do it again. Shameful!

  10. You did the right thing! Not many people understand what you are going through!
    I hope all the best to you!

  11. I watched him at the congressional committee hearing that was televised shortly after the insurgency. He is so strong and courageous. I have a great love in my heart for such a professional and personable man. Sir, you are a wonder to our country as so few are so very tenacious as you. Thank you for your service that day. Thank you for being you. A mother should be so proud to have a son like you.✌

  12. Thank you beyond the universe for your being Michael Fanone. When I was a child I would never have guessed when I grew up that the real monsters are human. I’m so sorry for what these soulless “humans” have done to you. I’m worried too about your health. As a PTSD survivor, I can’t help but notice a diminishment of your weight. Please don’t let these monsters succeed in their destruction . They are the real zombies and I will fight them until my last breath. God Speed Michael in recovery.

  13. I pray for your continued recovery. You’re a real hero young man and I’m sorry you’ve endured such a horrific ordeal.
