RINO South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham told NBC’s Kirsten Welker on Sunday morning that he thinks Trump’s pardoning and release of January 6 hostages was a “mistake” while comparing the victims to radical left Black Lives Matter rioters who burned down cities across the United States.
President Trump freed over 1,500 political prisoners last Monday.
Men and women who’ve been imprisoned by the Biden/Obama shadow government for daring to protest the legitimacy of the 2020 election have lost family members, jobs, businesses, friends, and reputations, all because Democrats needed to push a fake narrative that President Trump committed a crime on January 6, when his followers peacefully protested on the Capitol grounds.

What later ensued at the Capitol was chaos incited by federal agents, Capitol Police, and likely some leftist infiltrators. Before the chaos erupted, Capitol police began firing rubber bullets, tear gas canisters, and flash grenades on the peaceful crowd of Trump supporters gathered around the US Capitol without warning, the Gateway Pundit reported.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Inspector General David Horowitz released his much-anticipated January 6 report last month. In the IG report, the DOJ admits to 26 “confidential human sources” (page 77) working that day inside the Trump protest at the US Capitol. The IG Report ignored how many “undercover employees” were also at the US Capitol that day. According to the report, the DOJ also admitted that 4 entered the US Capitol and 13 entered the restricted area. However, this is very likely inaccurate as The Gateway Pundit previously reported, the FBI lost track of how many operatives and paid informants they had in the Trump crowd on January 6, 2021.

Damn rights they were like BLM. BLM weren’t prosecuted when they burned down cities.
No, they were awarded with $$ and accolades. Because D. Everything else is BS.
....Who weren't charged or imprisoned.... because oh that was just "peaceful protest"!
What's up with that?
No? I didn't think so...
“Damn rights they were like BLM. BLM weren’t prosecuted when they burned down cities.”
Don’t forget Murder and attempted murder for BLM and Antifa.
My biggest problem with the J6’ers has always what about the violent ones. The non-violent ones, especially those attacked in the protest area, have a case against government. The non-violent ones that did no damage should have never been prosecuted in the first place, as they democrats protected BLM and Anifa. The issue is, since information by the government was withheld, blocked, distorted, and they didn’t get a venue change, I believe they didn’t get Justice. Democrats always say that those denied due process should be free, and everyone should point out that J6 committee destroying or hiding evidence, the DOJ, Biden, the Jails, lack of venue change, and lying by the FBI, resulted in failure for Brady materials for the defendants.
But...but...but the BLM “rioters” and Minnesota arsonists weren’t framed, arrested and thrown in prison by Feddies. There’s a big difference. The negroes are above the law. JaySixers weren’t.
How many of those people served time, Lindsay?
Lindsey Graham proof some people vote blind folded and stay that way after doing so.
I agree. If a person simply exercised their right to protest and did nothing criminal knowingly, because part of trying somebody is whether or not they were aware they doing something wrong, should have never been prosecuted.
Those who did something, from carrying off a podium to sitting in Pelosi’s office to punching an officer, they get prosecuted in accordance to their crimes. If the time served adds up to the criminal act they are guilty off, they should be pardoned and let go.
There may have been 2 dozen people, out of the estimated 1500, that might have done something worth four years, but I doubt even that much.
At some point you have to ask what kind of jackass keeps voting for this clown?
His voters are more the problem than he is.
SUMF
Graham gets booed at every Trump rally or Republican event that I have attended in SC. He got elected the last time because the gay, black, DNC chair Jamie Harrison was so bad. The governor’s office is an open race as McMaster is termed. Crazy Nancy Mace has a better shot in a governor’s primary. Icky Nikki proved that SC would elect a female governor.
The comparison to the George Floyd riots and BLM are not even close to what happened on J6. A small contingent egged on by FBI agitators caused some small damage to the Capitol building, but there were NO fires, and the only person killed by gunshot was an unarmed female fired upon by a poorly trained and poorly disciplined Capitol police officer, who thus far has suffered no consequences.
4 years is more than enough for “assault” if anyone was guilty of that
Really, If that be the case, than why ain't those rats in the gulag with someone thumping on THEM 24-7.??
Goober Grahamnesty is attempting to see how much Never Trumper animus he can display in public.
No matter what he says this is NOT his KEY issue.
His key issues are supporting the money laundering scam in the Ukraine and finding a path to citizenship for illegal invaders.
I’m convinced there will be major resistance to deportation in the Senate.
I’m also convinced the resistance will come from the Republican wing of the uniparty in the Senate as well as come unanimously from the Democrat wing.
Well that's not an accurate comparison. None of those other people went to prison and they committed far worse crimes.
When are we going to get the name sand motivation, and who paid the pipe bomber?
