enrique tarrio says himself he is considering for running for office.oys at some point to concentrate on that and helping others with like minds run for office. but he may have a public relations problem because in the last few weeks canada has designated the proud boys as a terrorist organization. that might hurt his chances. but he says the canadian proud boys might just fight that in court. >> he might also have to wear a different costume and take out the glasses and the hat and actually make eye contact. andrew, in all your years at the fbi have you ever seen the rise of so many extremist groups at once? i mean, let alone groups that were taking their cues from someone in office. sort of the mainstreaming of these kinds of groups. >> no. absolutely not. there's no -- there's no history of this whatsoever. look, we've always had an issue with domestic violent extremists in this country, and that goes back decades, maybe a century. but we've never seen anything quite like this. the spectrum of different groups, different identities, their success in

the leader of the proud boys, this guy enrique tarrio, who is name in the indictment as person number white supremacists that they should turn out in record numbers, fan across d.c. in small teams. so there's coordination. they wore matching uniforms. they carried paramilitary gear like helmets and eye protection. and so they came hell-bent on destruction. they successfully incited the crowd and they acted in coordination with these tragic results. and so enrique tarrio, who's a known snitch, he's reportedly cooperated with law enforcement agents in other investigations to get himself out of trouble. that's certainly one person who the fbi will turn to to try to get information on who actually carried out the pact, who sprayed officer sicknick with this chemical poison that tragically resulted in his death. >> what are the effects of upgrading the charges against these six so-called proud boys to conspiracy? presumably that would add to any sentence. what else might it mean? >> yeah, you're absolutely right. it enhances the sentence. but it also creates more incentive for these person

his name is enrique tarrio.e came to washington, d.c., before january 6th in the days before and he was processed for his behavior at a previous protest rally in d.c. and was charged. that put him in court. he wasn't able to attend the insurrection or the trump rally on january 6th, and so that had him under court supervision. what the court is saying now is that they lost contact with him, he wasn't calling them back and was supposed to be in touch. and so what he has told "the washington post" this week was that that wasn't true, that he was going to call the people that were supervising him from the court, but that means that he has to come back now in court on february 22nd and speak to the judge and explain what happened. it means that if he did have a violation there, he could go to jail. he is currently released. so this is just very indicative of how these cases are going. they are very gradual. people are charged initially, sometimes with more minor complaints, and then the cases progress. we learn litt
