‘Torture is not ok!’ Capitol riot lawyer goes off when CNN host wants no part of inmate mistreatment talk
July 20, 2021 | Tom Tillison

An interview with attorney John McBride, who represents Capitol protester Richard Barnett, was said to have gone off the rails, but given the actions of CNN anchor John Avlon, that appeared to be the planned destination all along,

Filling in as a New Day co-host, Avlon had a remarkable exchange with the lawyer in the sense that it was almost the exact replay of the left’s argument about the treatment of prisoners, except Avlon was now spouting the conservative argument, replacing conviction with a smirk.

Yet, looking past CNN’s intended propaganda sell of an insurrection, the interview produced some valuable information — coming from McBride, of course. His client is the man who was photographed seated behind House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s desk, which may help explain Avlon’s sullen disposition.

In discussing the 8-month sentence of another protester, Paul Hodgkins, McBride explained that there “appears to be three categories of defendants who will be sentenced.”

“You have the misdemeanor trespasser or illegal protester, you have an individual like Mr. Hodgkins, who made it into the Senate chamber, into the holy of holies, during that time, during that sacred event, and then you have people who conspired to be violent and/or were violent that day,” he said. “Obviously those people have not been sentenced yet.”
