FBI has names of hundreds more Jan. 6 rioters. DOJ needs more lawyers to prosecute them.
NBC 'News' ^ | 4/06/22 | Ryan J. Reilly

WASHINGTON - Aided by citizen sleuths who keep identifying Jan. 6 rioters, the Justice Department is finding that it has more cases than lawyers to prosecute them.

Fifteen months after a mob stormed the Capitol in support of then-President Donald Trump's efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss, more than 775 defendants have been arrested. More than 225 have pleaded guilty so far, and two have been convicted at trial: one by a jury and one by a judge. More than 50 have been sentenced to prison.

That leaves more than 500 active cases that still need to be resolved, either by plea deal or trial.

The Justice Department is asking Congress for additional funds to prosecute those cases - a list that keeps growing.

And even as the Justice Department closes in on the 800 arrest mark, there's still an incredibly long road ahead. Multiple online sleuths in a network of “Sedition Hunters” working to find Jan. 6 participants have told NBC News that they've successfully identified to the FBI hundreds of additional Jan. 6 rioters - including dozens who are pictured on the FBI's Capitol Violence website.

“There are hundreds still to go,” said one online sleuth closely involved in the investigation, speaking anonymously to avoid retaliation from supporters of the rioters.

Some of the Jan. 6 participants who haven't been arrested were successfully identified months ago using open-source information publicly available on the internet - like public records, social media and internet photos.

Burn Loot Murder turned the entire nation upside down for a year. Prosecute them.

DOJ needs to mind its damned business. The FBI needs to be shut down and rebuilt.

Translation: we know that Ray Epps is out there, we just don't have anyone available to prosecute him.

It also shows that it wouldn’t take much to overwhelm the system.

Massive (passive) disobedience, how many can the government punish? Apparently not many.

“The moral of this story? If you are gonna riot, you better be ready to go all the way in the war.”

Yep.

"Aided by citizen sleuths who keep identifying Jan. 6 rioters..."

What a country this has turned into!
At least 60% of the population, and 90% of the "under 25" population, are happy following our communist masters' rules:
Bow down!... Obey!... Snitch!...

literally protected right to protest the govt.

the fact FBI agents and their accomplices goaded the protestors into the building doesn’t change the equation... except for making the FBI agents guilty of entrapment.

meanwhile, the FBI has spent no time to arrest any of the bidens, clintons, 0bamas, or any DNC members for committing treason.

hell, they wouldn’t even go after hunter for molesting little girls.

the FBI is nothing but a partisan thug force at this point.

Funny how they can ID everyone from Jan 6, but not one from BLM/Antifa/Occupy Wall street riots.

"Funny how they can ID everyone from Jan 6"

From this moment on, if you go to any political event, don't bring your cellphone. The police are using scanners and tech companies are turning over phone tower pings to law enforcement.

If you believe you need your phone with you in case of an emergency, invest in a Faraday bag and test it beforehand.

Odder yet that the FBI has all these resources to prosecute American citizens who were invited into the Capitol by the police yet their chief of cybersecurity just has “no idea” where the Hunter Biden laptop is that was turned over to the FBI three years ago last December. Or that it apparently doesn’t make the connection between fraudulent corrupt payments to Biden’s son and the percentage off the top he paid to his father who is called “the president”.

“FBI has names of hundreds more Jan. 6 rioters. DOJ needs more lawyers to prosecute them.”

Translation: FBI and DOJ no longer have the cooperation of the states and are hiding behind fences and barbed wire in DC.

74 Million Trump Supporters Take To Streets To Drive To Work And Go About Their Lives As Normal!

U.S.—Angered at President Donald Trump’s apparent loss, the president’s psychotic supporters took to the streets to drive to work and go about their lives as normal.

Crowds of Trump supporters were seen just kinda doing the same old thing they always do, not burning down any buildings or assaulting anyone or tipping over statues. The deranged, dangerous followers of the fascist ruler got in their cars and flooded the streets, but they were just driving to work, because life goes on.

Some got out of their cars and marched, but they were just marching into their offices and onto construction sites, the ones where they work, because they have jobs and their whole lives don’t hinge on who is or isn’t in the White House.

“Look at how insane these Trump supporters are!” screamed one commentator on CNN. “They are flooding our streets and going to work like usual! AHHHHHHHH!!!”

At publishing time, they were seen going into people’s homes and private property, though they were their own homes, because they were just going home for the evening to hang out with their families and maybe watch some TV.
