Ashli Babbitt’s shooter housed at Andrews for six months
Washington Examiner ^ | Jan 13 | by Paul Bedard

Posted on 01/13/2023 7:26:21 AM PST by RandFan

The U.S. Capitol Police lieutenant who shot and killed Jan. 6 protester Ashli Babbitt was housed for six months in a hotel suite reserved for top brass at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland, according to newly released Air Force records.

Capitol Police paid for a suite for Lt. Michael Byrd and a “pet” at the hotel inside the fenced base from July 2021 to January 2022 for thousands of dollars, according to documents obtained by Judicial Watch.

Byrd, who did not face any charges in the killing of the unarmed Babbitt, revealed his role in August 2021 and said that he had been threatened for his actions. Capitol Police did not immediately explain why they housed Byrd at the Presidential Inn, a military-only facility on Andrews.

Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton told Secrets he was surprised that Byrd was housed at the base at taxpayer expense.

“How in Lord's name does the Defense Department get involved in providing security?” he said. “So now the Defense Department is at the beck and call to help manage someone involved in a police shooting? It’s crazy."

There is no way that shooting was justified. But in today’s America, an incompetent affirmative-action hire is allowed to kill a woman who supports Trump. Entering illegally is no reason to kill her.

Cops have gone to jail for less. (But not mohammed noor in Minneapolis)

The defense department is run by woke department officials, and the woke government people were/are being run by democrats, and Pelosi was in charge of the J6 proceedings that occurred on that day and for months following the event. Nancy was in charge of what would occur to anyone ON HER SIDE that could be interviewed about the J6 events. Byrd was being protected from scrutiny, and the defense dept was used by the woke military and Nancy.

He is being brain washed or deprogrammed. It has to be one or the other. Wondering who has been treating him.

The Government is rewarding and incentivizing blacks to kill, rob, and assault whites, Asians, Jews, and Hispanics. All in the name of equity.

Correct. That this fact is not acknowledged is more than a little concerning. The rioters were permitted to enter and progress through the capitol. And then, deadly force was used against an unarmed woman. And there is no outrage; no discussion around prosecuting the man who killed her for no good reason. What is the proper response from We The People?

And BLM would’ve gotten that head, served up quickly on a big silver platter for all to see.

*Wonder where he is now?
This man was not American born.
Maybe he has left the country.
He’s certainly not still giving interviews.

Re: "July 2021 to January 2022"

I think those dates might be wrong.

I read about this yesterday.

The article I read said January 2021 to July 2021.

That would be consistent with the day of the shooting.

I do not have the link.

Just my thoughts……

I think he knew what he did was wrong. Notice how he didn’t stick around but went slinking back into his hole. The was probably very worried that the “evil insurrectionists” would come after him. So maybe he pressured Pelosi & Co to protect him, maybe threatened to tell how he was ordered to kill someone, unless Pelosi gave him a safe place to hide in.

Look at it this way, if you screw up under the control of the liberals in government you can launder, you are taken care of. And not exactly well by the person’s standards. The list is endless.
