On Eve of Insurrection, InfoWars Host Mocked Members of Congress 'Scurrying Around in Secret Tunnel
The day before Trump supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol in a deadly effort to stop Congress from affirming Joe Biden’s Electoral College victory, InfoWars host Owen Shroyer told a crowd of Trump loyalists that members of Congress were afraid and “scurrying around like the little rats that they are to try to avoid you.”
Thousands of die-hard Trump supporters gathered on Freedom Plaza in downtown, Washington, D.C., the day before the insurrection. The hours-long rally was a toxic mix of Christian nationalism, declarations that Biden will never serve as president, COVID-19 denialism, and both direct and indirect threats of violence.
Shroyer, who accompanies Alex Jones at public events and tells the crowds how great Jones is, spoke before introducing Jones as the “man who was the genesis in many ways of this second American Revolution.”
At one point, when Shroyer mentioned Nancy Pelosi, the crowd broke into a chant of “Lock her up,” and after letting the chant go for a while, Shroyer said, “You know what? I think that would be a good start.” After mocking new House rules on using gender-neutral language, Shroyer said, “Well, I got news for Nancy Pelosi: Trump is your daddy!”
