Miranda Devine: FBI emails revealed to The Post expose Biden DOJ’s obsession with piling on Trump charges
https://nypost.com/ ^ | June 18, 2025 | Miranda Devine

Posted on 06/18/2025 9:14:06 PM PDT by bitt

Internal FBI emails reveal that rogue agents and prosecutors in the Biden DOJ were looking for ways to pile on new criminal charges against Donald Trump over the Jan. 6 Capitol riot — this time over his involvement with the J6 prisoner choir, based on a single partisan news article.

The 2023 emails obtained by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley and revealed exclusively to The Post, are an example of the nitpicking malice of anti-Trump lawfare that tainted special counsel Jack Smith’s investigation, during Joe Biden’s presidency.

“Can we do some work to nail down Trump’s role in this,” writes prosecutor JP Cooney to DOJ colleagues on March 8, 2023, in an email with the subject line “J6 Prisoner Choir/DJT” and an attached Forbes.com article titled “Trump Collaborates On Song With Jan. 6 DefendantsTrump And Jan. 6 Prisoners Collaborate On New Song Called ‘Justice For All.’ ”

Cooney was a deputy special counsel who worked on both the Robert Mueller and Jack Smith get-Trump special counsel investigations.

‘Agent Zero’ “According to this Forbes article, Trump recorded the Pledge of Allegiance at MAL [Mar a Lago] and Kash Patel [Now FBI director] and Ed Henry [former Fox News host] were also involved,” Cooney wrote in the email chain.

“The profits are routed to an LLC run by Henry, and proceeds are intended for families of incarcerated J6 defendants — but there is apparently a vetting process that excludes families of defendants who assaulted police officers.

“I asked Ahmed [likely prosecutor Ahmed Baset, who was fired earlier this month] to preserve this last night. I’ll talk to Maria/Erin and Julia about doing some follow up here to nail down Trump’s role.”

Cooney also instructed colleagues to look at starting “some process on Ed Henry’s LLC,” presumably a legal process such as

These guys should hang. Thugs on FBI and DOJ payroll. Maybe they need a couple of rounds on the receiving end of their tactics.

These sickos use the apparatus of government to illegally target and fabricate crimes supposedly done by their victims.

I want indictments. Not today: not tomorrow but I want them. I want every single legal process followed to the letter. Every “i” dotted and every “t” crossed. I want this to be so airtight that all these thugs can do is beg for plea bargains before they rat each other out.

I don’t care how long it takes as long as it’s done right.

But I do want it done.

“ Where’s Pambi ?”

Did you see the part about doing it right?

You know. All that pesky legal stuff that makes cases stick. Silly stuff like evidence collection, witness interviews, chains of custody, Grand Juries, indictments, all that kind of thing.

And you want all that done yesterday in spite of the fact the woman has only had the job for a little over 5 months. She inherited a Department contaminated from top to bottom and side to side by Obama and Biden people all of them just itching to deliberately **** things up so the a-holes we want nailed to the wall get away with it.

Cleaning out the Stygian Stables was a weekend project by comparison.

So take your immature whining somewhere else.

Adults are doing adult stuff. They’ll let you know if they need your help

Don’t hold your breath waiting for that phone call.

With this revelation there’s no reason they shouldn’t be indicted. Come on Pam!

I thought they could indict a ham sandwich.
I think this stuff about proper procedure and due process has long passed because the US legal system is a fraud and highly politicized especially at federal level. The DOJ has been practicing witness intimidation, fabrication of evidence, destruction of exculpatory evidence, jury tampering, false narratives and impoverishment of defendants forever. Federal conviction rates are high nearly 99% for these reasons, not necessarily because they all have exceptional cases against defendants.
Do you mean that now that the Democrats are on the defensive, all due process rights and deference should be accorded to them?
I know one thing. If they get their power back, there won’t even be any due process for their targets. Not even the appearance of due process.

maybe i missed it. did they all get unconstitutional, autopen, preemptive pardons too?

meanwhile Tina Peters continues to rot in jail for exposing the stolen 2020 election in CO. what a world. there is no justice in America outside of Trumps pardons. i hope it’s coming soon.

“ I think this stuff about proper procedure and due process has long passed because the US legal system is a fraud and highly politicized especially at federal level.”

And President Trump is trying to restore that trust. He may not be able to, but I most sincerely hope and pray that he can. Because if he fails the consequences are truly catastrophic.

“ Do you mean that now that the Democrats are on the defensive, all due process rights and deference should be accorded to them.”

Yes. That’s exactly what I mean. The difference has to be so stark and so clear that even a window licking, nose picking, booger eating Democrat can’t deny it.

“ If they get their power back, there won’t even be any due process for their targets.”

Which is EXACTLY why this has to be done properly. This cancer has to be excised from the body politic completely. No mistakes can be made or it will just grow back. Not a single cell can remain.

The people here bitching and moaning that things aren’t moving fast enough to suit them are immature children.

Are you going to rush your heart surgeon? Tell him to finish the procedure that may save your miserable life before lunch because you want it done NOW?
