BREAKING - Members of the Miami Proud Boys are working together with Hialeah Mayor Steve Bovo @MayorBovo and Miami GOP Chair Rene Garcia @SenReneGarcia planning a Sat rally in Hialeah in support Rubio canvasser & white supremacist Christopher Monzon. 1/
In this video posted today in the telegram channel for Floridians First, a local Proud Boy front group, PB Chris Barcenas #USAPB says:
“We just had a meeting with Steve Bovo and his staff and Rene Garcia”
Chris is a Jan 6th rioter, Proud Boy and @MiamiDadeGOP REC member. 2/
In the video Chris says the purpose of the meeting with Hialeah Mayor Bovo, his staff and GOP chair Garcia was moving the rally to a better venue location (Milander Park off W 49th St.) and because it is near an early voting site. 3/
Can we also point out how hilarious it is that Proud Boy lawyer Gabe Carrera and Chris Barcenas never change the aesthetic of their flyer design? 😂
Always the same fronts, block lettering and overly busy background! 4/
Here’s our previous postings on the planned rally for background info. 5/
Media & public should be advised that Proud Boy rally organizers have advertised Christopher Monzon’s family as speaking at the rally.
But as we’ve uncovered, Monzon’s family share his political affiliations. Father Reynaldo Cedano marched with him at Unite the Right. 6/
As politicians tend to do, we expect Bovo to deny the meeting happened or pretend that he’s never met the Proud Boys before and had no idea who they were.
But this picture of Bovo at a GOP event suggests otherwise. 7/
MORE — Proud Boy Gabriel Garcia posted just in his telegram that he also attended a meeting earlier today with Hialeah Mayor Steve Bovo. @MayorBovo
Garcia is facing multiple felony charges for being inside the Capitol building on Jan 6. Also a @MiamiDadeGOP REC member. 8/
