~ Kevin Seefried taunting Officer Eugene Goodman inside the building |
Kevin Seefried, better known as the Confederate Flag Man, is a neo-Confederate who participated in the 2021 United States Capitol storming along with his son, Hunter Seefried. He became infamous for bringing a Confederate flag with him inside the building.
He and his son Hunter were known by fellow neighbors in Delaware to be proud of showing their neo-Confederate beliefs, being known for displaying their Confederate flag outside of their household. He was one of many rioters to be outsmarted by Capitol officer Eugene Goodman, who diverted them away from the Senate chamber. Seefried was later arrested and found guilty of obstruction of justice.
