Host squirms as DC Metropolitan Police cop unloads trifecta of obscenities live on CNN
During a call-in appearance on CNN, former DC Metropolitan Police officer Michael Fanone repeatedly distressed host Pamela Brown by peppering his attack on Donald Trump and the Jan. 6 rioters with obscenities the cable network was not prepared to bleep out.
After appearing twice on MSNBC earlier in the day to address Trump's decision to pardon close to 1,500 rioters regardless of whether they physically attacked Capitol cops as they did him, which led to a heart attack and his subsequent retirement, Fanone let loose on CNN.
After playing audio of released Oath Keeper's founder Stewart Rhodes telling reporters he had "No regrets," and "We did the right thing," Brown asked her guest, "What do you say, Michael?"

"Yeah, I mean, this is what I would say to Stewart Rhodes: Go f––k yourself," he replied, which made Brown elevate in her seat.
"Okay. We didn't obviously get to bleep that word out" the stunned host stated as she looked off-camera. "But you, obviously, Michael, this is very personal to you."
Asked if he was getting any more threats, he replied, "You know, my mother has had her home swatted. She's a 76-year-old woman who lives alone, she has had bricks thrown at her house in the middle of the night. And just a few months ago, she was out raking the leaves in her front yard when an individual pulled up in a truck and threw a bag of s––t on her."
"What do you say to what Trump claims is the, you know, the election is a referendum on this, the country has moved on. They don't care. They elected me anyway. What do you say to that and to the Americans who just don't care? Go ahead," she pressed her guest.
"I absolutely agree with President Trump," he shot back. "I believe that the election was in part a referendum on January 6th and that most Americans, they don't care because the characteristics that many of us have come to associate with ourselves as Americans; things like honor courage, integrity are all bulls––t."
"They've been replaced by things like selfishness, self-centeredness and cowardice and that's how we came to have Donald Trump as our president," he added.
