Where are the Reps defending the Jan 6 "insurrectionists" being held without bail by the justice system? Many are being held in solitary confinement. The only ones speaking up are Senators Warren and Durbin!!!
Most of the 300-plus people charged with participating in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot have been released while they await trial, but dozens of those deemed to be dangerous, flight risks or at high risk of obstructing justice were ordered held without bond. D.C. jail officials later determined that all Capitol detainees would be placed in so-called restrictive housing — a move billed as necessary to keep the defendants safe, as well as guards and other inmates. But that means 23-hour-a-day isolation for the accused, even before their trials begin.
And such treatment doesn't sit well with Warren or Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), two of the chamber's fiercest critics of solitary confinement.
“Solitary confinement is a form of punishment that is cruel and psychologically damaging,” Warren said in an interview. “And we’re talking about people who haven’t been convicted of anything yet.”
Reps are cowards.
Well find a place for the guy in back as well....
I blame the cowardly Rep-controlled state legislatures and GOP governors more than Pence. And where are the Reps in Congress who have been virtually silent about election fraud with a few exceptions? If the situation were reversed, the Dems would be raising holy Hell.
Agree, If they went to Pence and said “ we have your back” the results may have been different. Instead, to me, they took his lead and figured “ No Mas” was the easy way out.
If this , or future audits yields real results, then whomever is up for re-election and has not voiced real concerns pre certification, should be booted from office.
Of course that means we have cleaned up the rigged process...
The "e" in GOPe is silent. As is the "e" in "joke." Or "dopes."
