Mark McCloskey and his wife, Patricia, almost lost everything for simply defending their lives and St. Louis home from the mob. But they fought back, won, and are now helping fellow patriots who are experiencing the weaponization of justice, explains Mark McCloskey in an exclusive interview with Alex Newman for The New American’s Conversations That Matter.



In 2020, during the height of the Black Lives Matter riots, Mark and Patricia McCloskey saw an angry group of rioters coming towards their neighborhood. After the mob tore down an iron gate and poured onto their street, the couple armed themselves and stood outside their property, warning the trespassers to leave. 



Despite never firing a shot or leaving their property, the couple became the victims of a media whirlwind, garnering tens of millions of views on TV and social media. The McCloskeys were charged with the unlawful use of a weapon, a class E felony, and Mark had his law license temporarily suspended. The couple later received a pardon from Missouri Governor Mike Parson. 



After making it through the media haze and lawfare, Mark McCloskey is now working with long-time personal friend of Donald Trump, Peter Ticktin, to help January 6 prisoners get justice.
