India, Jan. 23 -- Ivan Raiklin, far-right activist, slammed ex-DC Metropolitan police officer Michael Fanone after their heated exchange at former Trump special counsel Jack Smith's hearing.

The two clashed during recess when Raiklin attempted to shake Fanone's hand. The former is a prominent promoter of 2020 election conspiracy theories and his X bio indicates support for far-right groups like Proud Boys and Oath Keepers. Their interaction quickly devolved when Fanone rejected the gesture and launched into expletives, prompting authorities to respond.

"Go f*ck yourself," Fanone repeatedly said to Raiklin and added, "You're a traitor to this f*cking country." After their clash, Raiklin posted on X, tearing into Fanone.
