The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia may well have torched the outrageous overcharging of hundreds of people who peacefully walked through the Capitol, a public building, on January 6, 2021.
In a 107-page split opinion, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia may well have torched the outrageous overcharging of hundreds of people who peacefully walked through the Capitol, a public building, on January 6, 2021.
The question before the court was whether the phrase “obstructing, influencing, or impeding an official proceeding, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1512(c)(2)” warrants charging those who peacefully walked through the Capitol with felonies.
The decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia means that the charge -- the obstruction of an official proceeding before Congress -- can continue to be used in the Justice Department’s prosecutions related to the Jan. 6 riot. It could also ultimately be used against Mr. Trump should the special counsel, Jack Smith, decide to file a case against him related to his efforts to overturn the 2020 election.
But even though the three-judge panel, in a 2-1 ruling, left in place the status quo and temporarily avoided crippling hundreds of Jan. 6 cases by invalidating the obstruction count, it still presented a serious challenge to the Justice Department moving forward.
A provision of the law requires proving that any interference with a congressional proceeding be done “corruptly.” Two of the judges said they were inclined to define that term in a narrow way as receiving a personal benefit -- even though the panel as a whole put off a final decision on the issue. The split decision left wiggle room for defense lawyers to try a flurry of complicated new efforts to invalidate the charge...

You will never see ANTIFA or BLM charged like this.

But Rat Party Headquarters continues to cry "Pearl Harbor!"...."9/11"...
You are correct sir, unfortunately. The crap heads.
Ironically, it was the auntie fas and the feebs and other alphabets (Epps) who were trying to disrupt the proceeding in a corrupt manner. The ones charged who were actually charged were the parading retards who allowed themselves to be herded by the deep state operatives.
My personal theory - less than 50 people actually entered restricted areas of the Capitol.
My personal speculation - 25 of those 50 people were FBI informants or paid provocateurs.
Not prosecution but persecution.

When is McCarthy going to release the tapes to the public?
Nothing ironic about it.
It was a joint attack on the Congress by the DoJ & the DNC.
All to stop the voting and prevent anyone from revealing how the Steal was done.
I think you could with DeSantis. I doubt the DOJ would follow the order if it came from Trump.
When the FBI actors took down the orange plastic fence around the lawn that marked the 'trespass' zone, it was no longer 'trespass', it was 'entrapment'.
For this the DOJ and FBI should suffer an IMMEDIATE loss of the top 26% of leadership, with an offer of 'no retirement, no charges'. Put their retirements into the Soc Sec Trust Fund.
Exactly! If you came to DC on J6 for the specific purpose to overthrow the government, would you have spent your time removing the fencing around the secured zone. No. But paid employees of the Deep State would have and did. Those paid employees were in place and waiting for the command to remove the barriers and did so when the order was given. This can be seen in the videos.
Nor did Hitler charge his Brown Shirts. They were his just as Antifa and BLM are an arm of the quasi-Marxist Democrat Party.

This bears repeating. Who benefited from this whole, clearly choreographed, charade? The Dems and their supporters in the Fed.gov. No more analysis of causative motivations is needed.
During his inaugural address, DJT has a stack of pardons. All J6 defendants get pardoned as DJT 47 signs them as he gives his address on 1/20/25
