According to CNN’s Andrew Kaczynski, a man who participated in the January 6th riots, including entering the Capitol building and cheering on those raging through the halls, made the trip down to the border with the MAGA Congressional delegation, presumably because the MAGA politicians have no problem palling around with people who are charged with attempting a coup. He also served as a translator and gave at least one a ride in his truck.

According to Crooks and Liars:

A conservative YouTuber who participated in the January 6 riot accompanied Republican members of Congress on a trip to the border Tuesday night, serving as a translator at times.

Anthony Aguero, a close ally of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene can be seen in videos and photos with Republican members of Congress who traveled to a route along the border frequented by migrants on Tuesday night. CNN’s KFile previously reported that Aguero went into the Capitol during the January 6 riot and cheered and justified the break-in.

During his livestream of the Tuesday visit, Aguero interviewed and chatted with Reps. Tom. Tiffany of Wisconsin, Lauren Boebert of Colorado, Madison Cawthorn of North Carolina, Chris Jacobs of New York, Michael Cloud of Texas, John Rose of Tennessee, Ronny Jackson of Texas, and Mary Miller of Illinois.

“Hi guys, Congressman Hawthorn is behind me,” Aguero tells viewers during his livestream, mispronouncing Cawthorn’s last name. “That is freaking awesome. That is freaking awesome. I’ll tell you that.”

Interesting emphasis on the “close ally of Marjorie Taylor Greene” because this is one of the MAGAs that some believe knew of the January 6th riot beforehand (this is rumor and speculation). One would think that the serving representatives wouldn’t want to be associated with someone who attacked their own country, but we suppose it’s all whose side one’s on nowadays.
