Lemire and thanks for starting your day with us. And we'll begin this morning with the

stiffest punishment handed down so far for anyone involved in the January 6th Capitol attack.

Enrique Tarrio, the former national chairman of the proud boys, was sentenced to 22 years in prison

following his conviction on a seditious conspiracy charge for playing a central role in the

2021 insurrection. His sentence is the longest so far,

surpassing the 18 years given to Oathkeeper's founder, Stuart Rhodes.

that he is done with politics. But Judge Timothy Kelly said Tario mobilized a group of 200

men, amped up for the battle encircling the Capitol,
