Pennsylvania Republican Senate candidate Kathy Barnette said she was bringing three buses of "pissed off patriots" for the January 6, 2021, "Stop the Steal" rally that preceded the US Capitol riot.
Calling it "our 1776 moment," Barnette promised those attending the rally would make their voices heard, according to previously unreported comments from the time reviewed by CNN's KFile. In another interview before the rally, Barnette said she helped bring three buses to Washington.
Barnette, best known as a conservative political commentator who recently surged in the polls for Tuesday's GOP primary, has seen renewed interest in her attendance at the rally after photos of her marching toward the Capitol began circulating on social media on Sunday. CNN's KFile verified the videos.
