LeChatNoire4 Not fired? Or arrested and charged? Typical... they probably have pensions and desk duty too.

The fall guys

Most likely suspended w pay. 🤨 They need to be fired & never work in law enforcement again.

I’m not surprised, probably with pay even..They’ll probably end up cops somewhere else.. Brads uncle knows a guy kinda shit .. ridiculous

Let's hope it's not more sinister than just welcoming pro-Trump rioters, personally I cannot tell you how many alarm bells this would trigger 😮

Cowards. They should stand their ground and do their duty with no personal political bias or influence from either side.

nice job, but let's upgrade that suspension to arrest and prosecution for abetting terrorism

Now for the rest of them

Career toast. They’re fkd for life.
