The prosecutors should be jailed for their deception.

Chansley’s lawyer seems to be circumspect about reversing judgment - which seems strange to me. maybe he needs Dersh or a more aggressive type. it seems many of the J6 defendants were pushed into pleas.

Turley wrote that Chansley is weeks away from his release? How long has he been incarcerated?

Does someone like Chansley or any of the other Jan.6th political prisoners have a legal fund we can donate to? Nothing outrages me more than how these guys have been treated especially when riots like the one at Trumps inauguration are COMPLETELY ignored which was a hell of a lot worse than Jan. 6th

He was persecuted for his dress. How evil.

Maybe a little off topic but:

Censored video re-emerges of Jacob Chansley reading Trump’s tweet, telling protestors to GO HOME and remain peaceful..

apparently, NONE of the J6 political prisoners had a decent lawyer which would have demanded all the footage in order to defend their client.

The question itself is a no-brainer. Of course, he got shafted, along with most of the other J6ers. The whole objective of this exercise is to stage show trials to warn people that they will be jailed for expressing any public opposition to the illegal regime occupying the White House. The message is “WE WILL CRUSH YOU”.

Aww, this is so cute.

Jonny Turley wakes up to find out that his buddies in the Federal Prosecutors office are a bunch of vicious liars.

How special.

Why aren’t patriots lined up in front of the jail demanding his release? What a sad lot we are.

The Judge that put the QAnon guy away, is Royce Lamberth a fairly conservative judge. If the judge never saw these tapes, one think he’d be outraged and order the defendant before him fore a hearing.Let’s see what happens, this is an outrageous example how the defendant was denied of due process, just as many other J6 Patriots.

Anyone arrested for jan 6th is a political prisoner. We live in East Germany, folks. Stop pretending we somehow have rights. democrats take away any rights anytime they want with virtually no pusb back.

I am actually disappointed by the fact that this man, as of this morning, is STILL in jail. He is obviously innocent of the “crimes” that he has been charged with.

The role of Congress in withholding this footage is disgraceful and wrong. The Congress and the January 6th Committee knew of this footage and its relevance to a pending criminal case. Yet, they refused to make it public.

Here is a question for Professor Turley:

The "privileges and immunities" clause of Article I that protects Congress has an exception for " Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace."

Article I Section 6:

They shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace, be privileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place.

If it can be shown that members of Congress intentionally withheld information to obstruct Chansley rights in a felony trial, can they be charged criminally using the "felony" exception to the immunities clause?
