Capitol Injustice: January 6 Rioters Held in Solitary Confinement
The American Spectator ^ | 05/13/2021 | David Keltz

Posted on 06/07/2021 12:16:03 PM PDT by Tench_Coxe

We all saw what unfolded on January 6 at the Capitol Building in Washington, D.C. It was a national embarrassment and an utter disgrace. CNN and many other news outlets have never stopped reminding us about that fact, in an attempt to further smear former President Trump and all 75 million of his supporters. But in all their extensive coverage of the fallout of the “insurrection,” most of the national media refuses to report on the atrocious living conditions to which some of the roughly 300 rioters who were arrested have been subjected as they await their sentencing from D.C. prison cells.

As recently reported in Just the News, not far from the Capitol, 1,500 inmates are confined to prison cells 22 hours a day. Up until a few weeks ago, it was 23 hours a day. Many, if not all, of the inmates who were involved in the January 6 riots have been placed in “restrictive housing” and have been relegated to “maximum-security” conditions.

Month old article. But, the Revolver site has a Twatter link and if some of the communications the person posted are accurate, those being detained are being abused.

Anyone have any current info of just exactly what the hell is going on?

The last thing I want to read/hear is that someone dies in custody.
And as far as some of the responses on that Twatter feed...pure scum.

I have just finished reading Dickens’ “A Child’s History of England”.
What is happening NOW is exactly what happened in England and Scotland during the English Civil War in the 1600’s....................

They are political prisoners subject to whatever laws, whims, and disappearances the Democrats choose to implement. Coming to a state near you soon.

Those idiots who attacked law enforcement should be charged accordingly, but all of the others were exercising their First Amendment rights and should be set free.

Unless Republicans in Congress start screaming BLOODY MURDER on this holding of POLITICAL PRISONERS, they are looking at their LAST YEARS in DC.
ZERO of them will be re-elected!

“Has President Trump made any comment on this?”

No, he hasn’t. But as further evidence of the bizarro land we now live in, Putin made some comments criticizing the treatment of the protesters.

Those same idiots should be treated exactly like the Antifa and Burn Loot Murder Criminals were treated.

It’s very interesting, and Dickens, of course, injects his opinions, sometimes funny and sometimes scathing, but always interesting....................

The same people who scream “Coup detat 1/6” are the same ones that dismissed and covered up the Wuhan Lab Covid origin, censored the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop, and refused to let the facts of the stolen 2020 Election be heard. Truth is coming out, and it isn’t theirs. Fraud is their milieu, and they are our burden. We have a duty to cast them off, and end this travesty forever.

Political prisoners.

In light of what cities, including D.C., handle multi-offenders by letting them go, no bail, etc. How many of those in solitary have absolutely have nothing else on their records?

And D.C. wants to become a state...pfffft.
