Ex-Proud Boys Leader's Lawsuit Threats: A Former Prosecutor's Perspective

Former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio has been making headlines with his legal threats. But what's the real deal? An ex-prosecutor from the Department of Justice shared some insights. Appearing on MSNBC, the former prosecutor, Ankush Khardori, was asked about Tarrio's lawsuit plans. He didn't mince words. "Tarrio isn't exactly known for his credibility, " he said. If Tarrio were to move forward with a lawsuit, he might target federal officials, claiming they violated his due process rights during the investigation and prosecution. However, Khardori isn't convinced such a lawsuit would hold water. "I haven't seen any solid grounds for a credible lawsuit, " he explained. Could Tarrio's boldness stem from his pardon by the former president? It's a possibility. Khardori noted, "If I were in his shoes, I'd feel pretty confident too after being pardoned for a serious crime like seditious conspiracy. "
