In an interview published Friday by New Hampshire Public Radio (NHPR), US navy veteran Jason Riddle said: “It’s almost like [Trump] was trying to say it didn’t happen. And it happened. I did those things, and they weren’t pardonable.

“I don’t want the pardon. And I … reject the pardon.”

Riddle entered the US Senate parliamentarian’s office, drank a bottle of wine, stole a book and inflicted damage at the Capitol when Trump supporters attacked the building on 6 January 2021 in a desperate attempt to the then president in office after he lost the presidency to Joe Biden weeks earlier, according to court documents. He received a 90-day prison sentence and was fined $750 in April 2022 for pleading guilty to committing misdemeanors in an attack that was linked to several deaths, including officer suicides.

    But I was in DC on the 6th, and let me tell you that the people I saw wearing the red hats were “normal”.

    Having grown up with a meth addict parent, you may not know what to look for in otherwise “normal” adults who are meth addicts. If they have the self control not to let the drug take over, they can live for years without showing any outward signs of their habit. It’s amazing how long some people can be functioning adults and addicted.
