New video footage reveals Officer Eugene Goodman saved Mitt Romney’s life during Capitol attack

But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

By now we’ve all seen the footage of Capitol Police Officer Eugene Goodman putting himself in harm’s way in order to distract the Capitol terrorists and lure them away from the Senate chamber, thus likely saving then-Vice President Mike Pence’s life. Now it turns out Pence wasn’t the only life Goodman saved.

During today’s Senate impeachment trial, new video footage was presented which shows that Senator Mitt Romney was unknowingly walking toward the terrorists, when Officer Goodman ran past Romney and told him to turn around. Romney then began running in the other direction.

Here’s the video footage:

If Donald Trump’s insurrectionists had encountered Mitt Romney in that moment, it’s likely they would have killed, kidnapped, or assaulted him. So now we know that Officer Goodman directly saved Romney’s life.
