Five Proud Boys members involved in the January 6 Capitol storming are suing the U.S. government for over $100 million, claiming violations of their constitutional rights during their arrest and detention, despite being pardoned by President Trump in 2025. The lawsuit includes allegations of forceful raids, solitary confinement, and cruel treatment, and seeks damages and interest. Some members have expressed intentions to run for office and defend their actions.
