Washington Post ^ | January 4, 2022 | Matt Zapotosky

Attorney General Merrick Garland will give a speech Wednesday about the Justice Department’s efforts to investigate and prosecute those responsible for the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol, stressing the department’s “unwavering commitment to defend Americans and American democracy from violence and threats of violence,” a Justice Department official said.

In the address, scheduled for the day before the anniversary of the attack, Garland will not speak about specific people or charges, said the official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the speech had not yet been officially announced.

Guess who Merrick Garland will definitely NOT mention. The BEST KNOWN of the people in the crowd at the Capitol on January 6. Namely Ray Epps. And it isn't as if Garland isn't aware of Epps because Congressman Massie played a video of Epps urging people to GO TO THE CAPITOL on the night of January 5 and on January 6.

Oh, and also note that NONE of the so-called insurrectionists have been charged with insurrection.

Congressman Massie showed Garland a video of Ray Epps urging the crowd on to the Capitol so there is no way he can still claim ignorance of him. In fact, Ray Epps is the MOST FAMOUS of all the people in the crowd that day. Yet, despite appearing on the FBI wanted list (he was mysteriously dropped from that list later) he still remains free. The ONE MAN who more than any other urged the crowd on gets a pass from law enforcement. I hope Garland is asked again and again and again and again about this.

This is simply setting the precedent that any protest against the government can be labeled “insurrection” if those in power wish it to be.

Of course, it will be selectively enforced so supporters of big government are never arrested when they storm the capitol to protest a supreme court nomination or other significant debate.

Might not happen on Jan. 6 because right now Winter Storm Frida has closed down Washington D.C. with the biggest snowfall in years. Oh, and the next big snow storm is predicted to hit D.C. on... January 6.

Pelosi ripping up President Trump's 2020 State of the Union was more of an Insurrection or coup than the Jan 6th riot.

By ripping that up, she did not recognize the President. That's a coup!!

And by the way....Covid was mentioned in that speech.

I lived in the D.C. area for a couple of years and I can tell you that even the smallest amount of snow on the ground pretty much shuts down traffic. Also with all that snow on the ground right now that melts on during the few hours when the temperature goes above freezing (right now at 27 degrees) quickly turns to ice when the temperature drops again thus rendering the roads even more difficult to drive on.

I’m going to enjoy watching Garland placed on the Rack and forced to confess his sins by Grand Chief Inquisitor Bannon.

After the Rack will come the Iron Maiden and then the Cat-o-nine-tails and finally the Judas Craddle.

Neither Ashley Babbit or the cop that shot her will be mentioned. Oh sure, he’ll go on and on about the injured, hero cops, and the cops who completed suicide...they keep yammering about how this was a “deadly” attack, but they never mention that those who died there were killed by police actions.

unwavering commitment to defend Americans and American democracy from violence and threats of violence...

But this only applies to White Trump Supporters. If you are anti-FA or BLM, you may continue to burn, loot and destroy American cities and businesses at will.

It is all unfolding as predicted.

January 6th was an insurrection.

Anyone who objected to the election is equally as guilty.

As a matter of fact, anyone in the same party is equally as guilty.

As a matter of fact, anyone who opposes Biden, the true victor of the election and the victim of the insurrection, is also guilty.

If you even so much as complain about anything or try to block anything that the democrat party does, you are also guilty of the insurrection. Especially those parents who actually believe that they have a say over their own children’s lives.

As a matter of fact, anyone who isn’t a democrat is an insurrectionist and should not be allowed to run for office.

Hey, the democrats win by virtue of being the only legal people in the country.

And damn all of you racists who disagree.

It takes at least 3 days in a row of temperatures over 50 degrees for the snow to melt in the DC area which WON’T be happening for the rest of the week. Therefore DC will still be snowbound on Thursday with ANOTHER snow storm arriving that day.

Some Dem Attorney has called Pelosi to call up to 120 Republican lawmakers to be deemed ineligible to be elected (section 3 14 Amendment). What if they pulled this just after the primaries and before the 2022 Nov elections? How evil would that be?
