The US air force will provide military funeral honors to Ashli Babbitt, the rioter fatally shot during the January 6 Capitol attack, marking another step in Donald Trump’s aggressive rehabilitation of the attack.
The under secretary of the air force, Matthew Lohmeier, confirmed the decision in an August letter to Babbitt’s family. The Biden administration previously denied Babbitt the honors, but Lohmeier said he was “persuaded that the previous determination was incorrect” after reviewing new information about her death.
Babbitt, 35, served in the air force and air national guard and was shot by Capitol Hill police as she climbed through a barricaded door near the House chamber in the mass frenzy to overthrow the results of the 2020 election. The air force had originally refused honors in February 2021, according to Lohmeier’s letter, saying they would “bring discredit upon the Air Force” due to the circumstances of her death. She was the only person killed by gunfire during the riot.
Proof that cops are just army larpers
To be fair, most of the people who get military funeral honours were also morons who got shot intruding in places they shouldn’t have been
Breadand circusesThis is probably another thing that will have the megas and liberals fighting.
I personally do not care, having seen too many war criminals given the same honors.
Remember this, veterans. Trump’s Department of Defense is awarding military honors to a traitor that died while actively violating her oath to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.”
Still got smoked lmao
Lol.
She’s still dead.
RFK Jr is going to fix her right after he solves the tism.
As fucked up as this is, it should not surprise anyone. After all, “we” elected a felonious, rapist, pedophile to the highest office.
