'Savage animal': Former J6 police officer says 'MAGA lunatics' attacked elderly mother

Special counsel Jack Smith's final report on Jan. 6 and the 2020 election was released overnight, but a former victim of the MAGA attack says Americans simply don't care.

Speaking to MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace, Former Washington, D.C. Metro Police Officer Michael Fanone said it's become clear that Americans saw what happened to him and are too selfish to be bothered.

"Let me remind people, I voted for [Donald] Trump in 2016," Fanone said, noting that he always lived under the assumption that only one party supported law enforcement.

He said his politics didn't influence his decision to respond to calls on Jan. 6.

"For those of us that were there fighting Trump supporters inspired by his lies and his violent rhetoric, we were there to protect ourselves and our fellow officers," Fanone continued. "And ultimately, those of us that chose to speak out and testify about our account and what we experienced at the Capitol on January 6th, you know, who have been targeted by Trump himself and by his supporters. And that continues to this day."

He recalled revealing that his mother was swatted, the practice of someone calling the police, claiming that there was a person with a gun, or threatening a person at the residence. The goal is for police to act irrationally and shoot first when the owner opens the door.

While the swatting has been reported, Fanone revealed that his mother was attacked by someone driving by her home at least twice in the past several months.

"Unfortunately, my mother has suffered at the hands of these MAGA lunatics," he said.

"Simply because her son continues to tell the truth about his experiences on January 6th. I mean, her house has been swatted. She had an individual throw a brick at her house just a little over a month ago in the middle of the night," Fanone told Wallace.

"And I guess, you know, most egregious of all, while she was out raking leaves, not so long ago, an individual pulled up and threw a bag of s--- on her while she was in her front yard," he said, saying the person threw feces on his elderly mother.

"What kind of savage animal behaves like that?" he asked. "But this is the ideology of the Trump MAGA wing of the Republican Party."

Fanone was forced to retire from the police force.
