Proud Boys leaders Joe Biggs and Enrique Tarrio celebrated Trump’s shoutout to the group during the first presidential debate.
Members of Far-right group Proud Boys responded to President Donald Trump’s « stand back » and « stand by » statement saying they were « ready » to take charge against anti-fascists, also known as Antifa. The response came on Parler app — a Twitter-like application that is popular among conspiracy theorists and far-right groups that have been banned from mainstream social media. Trump’s order to Proud Boys came during the first presidential debate on Tuesday. Fox News host and the debate moderator Chris Wallace asked the president whether he would condemn white supremacists and militia groups that were involved in recent protests in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
