WASHINGTON - Saying each had a role in helping preserve American democracy, resident Joe Biden awarded the nation’s second-highest civilian honor to a Capitol Police officer from Georgia and two former election workers from Fulton County.
Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, a mother and daughter, got some of the biggest applause of the event as the president recounted the abuse they bore after being falsely accused of ballot fraud by then-President Donald Trump and his allies. They later provided testimony to a House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol where Trump supporters breached the building and temporarily halted the certification of the 2020 presidential election.
“Both of them were just doing their jobs until they were targeted and threatened by the same predators and peddlers of lies that would fuel the insurrection,” Biden said. “They were literally forced from their homes, facing despicable racist taunts. But despite it all, Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss found the courage to testify openly and honestly to the whole country and the world about their experiences and set the record straight about the lies and defend the integrity of our elections. Ruby and Shaye, you don’t deserve what happened to you. But you do deserve the nation’s eternal thanks for showing that dignity and grace of ‘we the people.’ ”
Moss and Freeman, as well as Capitol Police Officer Caroline Edwards, were among 12 honorees during a White House event Friday to mark two years since the Capitol breach. Biden presented each of them with the residential Citizens Medal.

January 6 is to the Democrat Party what the Reichstag Fire was to the Nazi Party.
Our idiot in chief it’s just that…
sound like she’s been paid off. BF’n surprise.
Man, these low-wattage, criminal filth bags are really rubbing our noses in it... Ugh.
Ruby Freeman ADMITTED SHE TOOK BALLOTS FROM UNDER A DESK AND RAN THEM MULTIPLE TIMES
Pure bullshittite. Especially since a woman from Kennesaw was crushed to death by police pressure on crowds during Pelosi’s FBI riot outside the Capitol Building.
Exactly. Her getting a medal is a loud statement that the Dims applaud vote fraudsters.
“Protectors of democracy”?
Is that like “Hero of the Soviet Union”?
My lord, Joe Biden and his corruptocracts are really rubbing it in our faces now.
You got to be sh!tt!ng me
To quote a fav movie ... “Let it turn. Let it turn to something else.”
Remember folks, the demonocracy they left talks about is not really democracy.
Ruby Freeman was given an award for protecting DEMOCRATS IN POWER.
We are run by a Luciferian cartel. They operate under that idea on a daily basis. Bad is good and good is bad.
Deliberately rubbing our noses in their obvious theft.
Funktionshäftlinge.
Is this the same speech by the PedoPres wherein he championed the copper run over three months later in a car accident? Claiming that DTrump did it ‘cause the same copper was at Jan6?
Geesh.
States evidence security footage of them pulling 3 cases of ballots from under the voting tables and ram through the machines in the middle of the night with no one around and they go from being guilty to being let off by the judge. I guess they were doing what they were told. But to get honored for that is strange.
In your face.
I thought “Why not Ray Epps while you’re at it?” then realized he’s probably getting a Medal of Freedom later on.
Notice last night that Tucker would not say a word about the Brazilian voting machines.
