GOP Candidate Took Gift from Proud Boys

As Maryland gubernatorial candidate Dan Cox (R) worked the crowd at his primary victory party this summer, a young man wearing a black polo shirt with a Proud Boys insignia offered a handshake and small gift to the newly minted GOP nominee for governor, the Washington Post reports.

Said the young man: “Here, this is a present from Maryland Proud Boys to you.”

“Cox accepted the gift, inspecting the small, black comb, then asked the man’s name and shook his hand.”
