A former U.S. Capitol Police officer on Tuesday evening said in a new interview that that his Capitol Police supervisors went silent during the Capitol breach on Jan. 6, 2021.

The former officer, Tarik Johnson, was spotted wearing a red “Make America Great Again” baseball cap during the Capitol breach, but he told Fox News‘ Tucker Carlson that he wore it in order to make his way through a crowd of pro-Donald Trump protesters. In the interview, Johnson said that he believes he was ignored by the House Jan. 6 Select Committee during its investigation last year.
