Welcome to the Eric Metaxis show with your host, Eric Metaxus.

Hey, folks, very exciting guest right now.

His name is Mark Ibrahim.

Drug enforcement administration, DEA, agent.

He was suspended from the agency for being outside the Capitol building during the January 6th riot, where many senators and congresspeople were killed, as you may have heard.

Oh, I'm sorry, nobody was killed. Oh, Ashley Babbitt was killed.

Gosh, that's a new take. I got to talk to Mark Ibrahim about many things. He comes to us by way of Patrick Coffin and our friend Rob McCoy. And we just want him to tell his story. It's important stuff. Mark, Abraham, welcome.

Thank you. Thank you for having. I can't see Mark. Mark, Ibrahim, welcome. Thank you. Thank you for having.

I can't see Mark. Mark, welcome. I want to say that I'm grateful to you for wanting to tell the story because there has been such madness and confusion surrounding whatever it is that supposedly happened on January 6th.

And the idea that we're not supposed to talk about it or we're supposed to have certain opinions about it is very troubling to me as an American.

And I'll be the last person to shut up on this kind of an issue.

So facts matter, truth matters.

And we just want to hear your story.

I'm not sure what you can say.

There's some kind of a lawsuit going on.

What can you tell us?

Let's start there.

I mean, there's an active case against me.

I'm facing 15 years in jail, facing multiple charges.

I never went in the building.

I never heard anybody.

I even offered assistance to the FBI SWAT team that was outside the Capitol building.
