Proud Boys Seek Justice After Legal Battles

The Proud Boys, a far-right group, are in a legal fight with the Justice Department. They want over $100 million for their time in jail and legal troubles from the January 6th Capitol riot. The group is upset with Attorney General Pam Bondi for trying to stop their lawsuit. The Proud Boys met online and talked about their legal issues. They said the Justice Department is not helping them. They want Bondi to step down because they feel she is not on their side. The group believes the government treated them unfairly and wants the court to let their lawsuit continue. The Justice Department said the Proud Boys did not follow the right steps before filing their lawsuit. They also said the government has protection from such claims. The Proud Boys' lawyer is confident the court will see their side and let the lawsuit move forward. Mark McCloskey, a lawyer helping the Proud Boys, said more legal challenges are coming. He believes the Justice Department's actions will make things harder for the defendants. The Proud Boys also claim they faced harsh conditions in jail and were treated badly by the legal system. The Justice Department did not comment on the Proud Boys' online meeting. The lawsuit also claims the government violated their rights and acted maliciously. The Justice Department said the Proud Boys did not prove their claims. The case is still ongoing, and the outcome is uncertain. Social media has been critical of the Justice Department's actions. Some people have called the department's attorney names and criticized their decisions. The Proud Boys and their supporters believe they have been treated unfairly and are fighting for justice.
