The Biden administration has pledged to continue to pursue and convict all people who broke the law in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol incident, including those who never entered the building or who weren’t even present at the U.S. Capitol that day. Prosecutors have, to date, charged over 1,250 people with various crimes related to Jan. 6, ranging from being present on Capitol grounds without authorization, to assault of a police officer, to seditious conspiracy.

I had to do it
I wanted to go to J6 but had family obligations. I had no idea it would be the Reichtag Fire for the 21st Century.
Characters wearing Trump costumes followed orders or manipulations from government agencies. Not all of them were aware of the real purposes of what they were doing: to feed anti-Trump images to the media and provide an excuse for indicting real Trump supporters. Making the illusion seem more credible, some of the crowd committed crimes. After months and years of mistreatment, many of the accused, including guilty and innocent, pled guilty. Lawyers representing them probably informed them what the DC juries and judges would be like.

I think Trump supporters did a good job of creating those images without help coukd there have been a leftist instigator or 2? But that mob overall fed on its own power and energy.
I have been to big conservative rallies with many thousands of protesters, never witnessed any trouble at those. You believe that the actual J6 Trump supporters (not including “other” attendees) just became violent on their own? You know that Michael Byrd was not a Trump follower?
They were angry and agitated. A tinder box was created. As many testified in their trials, they believed misinformation and acted on it.
After being threatened with continued detention and mistreatment during sometimes de facto indefinite pre-trial duration, and sometimes exact long sentences.
It's possible to plan, and commit crimes without being present, but I don't trust the DOJ nor every federal judge, nor DC juries, to make that determination. And certainly not the Bennie Thompson J6 committee.
and acted on it.
Probably some of them.
So they all lied?
“They?”
Those who either testified or made statements that they believed and acted on misinformation.
And the Biden regime wants to persecute a thousand more. That is not justice.
It’s justice to prosecute if they broke the law.
That’s one way to look at it. Would make more sense if the “justice” system prosecuted and punished its own political allies like leftist mobs and politicians with the same zeal.
While I don’t like inequities, some is better than none. In my city, most of those caught doing real damage during Floyd were prosecuted.
The Biden gang and allies are using the "legal system" for their dirty politics. I'm not sure even Cloward and Piven would go that far.
