The now-viral photo shows Richard Barnett seated in the Speaker’s chair with his foot propped on her desk.
We’ve uncovered a Facebook video posted in October 2020 in which Barnett said he is a retired firefighter out of Memphis. He said he spends his time doing what he can to “protect our country.”
We interviewed Richard Barnett, co-founder of 2A NWA STAND!!!, at the Patriot Tour on October 7, 2020. copyright 2020.

We checked with the Memphis Fire Union. They confirm the department once had a firefighter by the same name but could not confirm if it was the same man.
