The family of a deceased Capitol police officer refused to shake hands with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., during a ceremony Tuesday honoring U.S. Capitol Police and D.C. Metropolitan Police.
Among the attendees were family members of Brian Sicknick, a U.S. Capitol Police officer who suffered strokes the day after the Jan. 6 insurrection.
During the ceremony, Sicknick's two brothers and parents approached Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and shook his hand. They continued down the line of lawmakers standing in front of the podium, bypassing McConnell and McCarthy. The Sicknicks kept walking, declining to shake hands with the GOP leaders.

Fact: Passed away from a heart attack on January 6th. He was a Trump supporter. He wasn’t harmed but anyone the FBI let into the Whitehouse. 🧐
I’m pretty sure he didn’t die on Jan. 6th. I think it was 2 days after
Edit: I looked it up and he died on Jan. 7th.
He died as a result of the stress caused by those assholes’ behaviour at the Capitol. Why else would a healthy guy have two strokes?? That was a disgusting attack on democracy and Republicans lost a lot of respect that day.
@Jezbollah xxx You are trying to explain something the clueless cannot grasp.
@Jezbollah xxx “Why else would a healthy guy have 2 strokes?” Idk, go ask all the young healthy athletes that have been “mysteriously” dying…
I’ve been quite unsure about investing in this current market and at the same time I feel it’s the best time to get started on the market. i was at a seminar and the host spoke about making well over $3.5M within a short period of time investing in Cryptocurrency. i need to know how to go about it.
Steve A Korduckia is really different from every other Brokers , his honest and pro, earned 52.3BTC from him. Thank God i stopped hodling, i would suggest you try him
i agree, no doubt STEVE A KORDUCKI has really made a good name for himself. His reviews are so exceptional, he’s really a Pro. I was able to grow my account close to a million, withdraw my profit right before the correction and now I’m buying again.
@Harry Kane there’s a lot of money to be made in crypto. I been trying to stick with index funds. I feel this new interest rates hikes could crash this economy. I’m looking out for a better investing strategy, I have a lump sum that inflation is steady eating up. i need help. How do I reach him?
@Jane Foster check the web and you will find him, drop a msg.
@Harry Kane Ok, just found his website, impressive, Thank you.
McCarthy and McConnell…two McMorons…
Damn ……..
Love it!!! ❤❤❤
Do you hate Jews also?
No fan of McConnell but he’s no Yrump supporter in fact he acknowledged Trumps loss.
he died from massive hearth attack bur unarmed Ashli Babbitt was murdered in cold blood by capitol police officer
Ashley Babbitt got the only fair sentence that day.
Getting beaten after battling insurrectionist traitors is bad for the heart, I hear
Damn. Can’t blame them though.
Denied! And deservedly so.
It would have been hard to not deck McCarthy.
Love that stupid look on McCarthy’s face. Yea you just got snubbed by heroes man. They know what you are.
Disgusting hate, he died from a heart failure. Blaming others seems to be normal these days
you are calling this disgusting hate, and not what happened the day before their family member died? something is wrong with you.
Fighting traitors of the United States and getting beaten will do that to a heart i am told
A burn that will live in history.
Makes sense to me. Those 2 are complete garbage.
So many people are blaming the family of the Capitol Police Officer for being rude and unprofessional for not shaking McConnell and McCarthy hands.
These same individuals should be blaming McConnell and McCarthy for being rude and unprofessional to the American people!!!
You reap what you sow, that is all I have to say those those two.
That filled my heart with joy…
21 Republicans oppose honoring these law enforcement officers despite they risked their lives.
Shame on Republican Party
No handshake 🤝 lol
