Show Your Support for Michael Fanone!
Donation protected
This fundraiser is for Michael Fanone, former Metropolitan Police Department officer in Washington, DC. He defended the Capitol Building on 1/6/21, and testified about his injuries and experience before the Jan. 6 Select Committee in July 2021.
Since that time, MAGA has made his life a living hell, to the point that he is now unable to find employment, and he could use some help. To support Michael and his family financially is one way to show him we care and support his sacrifices, and his steadfast heroism.
Michael has now had to file restraining orders against the recently-pardoned convicted criminals who viciously attacked him at the Capitol Building on Jan. 6. He and his family members are constantly being harassed and threatened by deranged, violent MAGA cultists. He has been unable to find a job, he has a family to support, and he has bills that need to be paid.
This is not how a nation that reveres its democratic principles treats its best patriots and true heroes. It’s more important now than it has ever been to recognize that our institutions have failed us. It’s up to us now, and only us, to do whatever we can to push back on the failures of a system that abandoned laws, principles, and decency long ago.
Michael says that he’s been betrayed by his country. He has. But half of us voters did not ask for this; we specifically voted against what we all feared, and is now happening.
We are this country, too. This GoFundMe is a concrete way to push back, to show appreciation and real-life caring for Michael. If you feel like you just want to do SOMETHING to help one of our 1/6/21 heroes, here’s your chance. This is something that’s urgent, basic, and needed.
If you haven’t read Mike Fanone’s book Hold the Line: The Insurrection and One Cop’s Battle for America’s Soul, you can find it here:
Thank you, everyone!
