Extremist GOP Rep. Paul Gosar Defends Capitol Rioters As “Peaceful Patriots” Being Harassed By DOJ [VIDEO]

The Associated Press reports:

Republican Rep. Paul Gosar of Arizona is defending a woman who was shot and killed by the Capitol Police as she tried to break into the U.S. House chamber during the Jan. 6 insurrection, saying she was “executed.”

Gosar on Wednesday asked Rosen why Babbitt was “executed” and asked the name of the officer who killed her. Gosar called Babbitt “a young lady, a veteran, wrapped in an American flag that was killed in the U.S. Capitol.”

The Hill reports:



“As the death certificate says, it was a homicide. Who executed Ashli Babbitt?” Gosar asked. “My constituents demand answers. But the truth is being censored and covered up. As a result, the DOJ is harassing peaceful patriots across the country. Without accurate answers, conspiracies continue to form,” Gosar said.
