Cynthia Elliott and her husband moved into their home 22 years ago to help care for his father-in-law and manage the family home. They raised six children in this home and have worked hard. They endured hardship after hardship, including her husband’s battle with cancer and his resulting disability. They are still homeschooling the youngest children, and Cindy picks up sewing work to help pay the bills. Then came January 6th. Their son, James Elliott, was arrested and imprisoned by the DOJ for his involvement at the Capitol — a day when thousands of Americans exercised their constitutional rights and...

Mike Pence may be despised by his own supporters, but it appears he has many admirers in left-wing circles. The former vice-president, who betrayed President Trump and the entire MAGA movement by refusing to challenge the widespread fraud that tainted the 2020 presidential results, collected the “John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award” on Sunday evening as recognition of his actions. Addressing the liberal audience, Pence described January 6th as a “tragic day” and took thinly veiled shots at the Trump administration. “Our institutions held that day, not because of any one person, but because leaders in both political parties,...

I am looking for links to original videos/photos from inside the capital building when Ashli Babbitt was shot. Not outside in the hallway (which are easily available) but inside the room showing the barricades. Specifically I want to see several 'claims' are true: 1. That Senators/Congress people were in the room and they had to be protected. Frequently quoted as justification for shooting. 2. That the Shooter (Michael Byrd) was alone (not with other security near the door) and he warned people not to come through. 3. Actual videos of the glass and doors being broken before Ashli Babbitt tried...

In Feb 2021, then DC chief judge Beryl Howell created a special framework for judges to use in determining pre trial detention for J6ers—meaning keep them behind bars awaiting trial.. What became known as the “Chrestman factors” turned due process and standard bail rules on their head. Even nonviolent J6ers charged with conspiracy or obstruction with no criminal record could be held in a federal prison—often hauled cross country to the DC gulag—because as part of the “mob that attacked the Capitol,” they represented a danger to their community. A J6er’s release was not considered on a case by case...

President Trump has said he will look into the status of Capitol police officer Michael Byrd.As readers will remember, Byrd is the man who murdered January 6th protester Ashli Babbitt in cold blood.While protesters were aggressively persecuted and imprisoned, Byrd was cleared of any wrongdoing following an investigation by his superiors.After avoiding criminal prosecution, he was given a medal by the Biden regime and has since been promoted to a higher position.In an interview with Greg Kelly over on Newsmax, Trump was asked about Babbitt’s murder by Byrd and whether he should still be in his position.Trump has promised to...

President Trump said early Monday that he was voiding all the last-minute pardons former President Joe Biden made using autopen. “The ‘Pardons’ that Sleepy Joe Biden gave to the Unselect Committee of Political Thugs, and many others, are hereby declared VOID, VACANT, AND OF NO FURTHER FORCE OR EFFECT, because of the fact that they were done by Autopen,” Trump posted on Truth Social early Monday morning. “In other words, Joe Biden did not sign them but, more importantly, he did not know anything about them!” he said of the oldest-ever president and concerns at his age-related mental abilities at...

Today, years after Ashli was gunned down in the US Capitol, the Trump administration signaled that they will resolve this case for the family.

Reuters reported on Friday that interim U.S. Attorney Ed Martin is transferring numerous Biden DOJ prosecutors to pursue misdemeanor offenses in the DC Superior Court. They should consider themselves lucky after what they did to innocent Americans! Politico posted a list of names of the demoted DOJ prosecutors who built phony cases against Trump supporters in an attempt to ruin their lives and spread fear of the regime across the nation. "Those demoted include John Crabb and Elizabeth Aloi, who prosecuted contempt of Congress cases that sent Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro to jail for four months apiece. They include...

Video released Thursday shed light on the moments leading up to an Indiana sheriff’s deputy shooting and killing J6 defendant Matthew Huttle, who had recently received a pardon from President Donald Trump. Body cam footage from a Jasper County Sheriff’s Office deputy shows Huttle being pulled over for speeding 70 MPH in a 55 MPH zone, and admitted to having “pending traffic violations” in the state. After Huttle was identified as a Habitual Traffic Violator, he was asked to step out of the vehicle and informed that he would be booked since the infraction was a felony. “So today, you...

BREAKING NEWS!!! 🚨 JEREMY BROWN IS FREEEEEE!!! GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP!!! 🇺🇲 Thank all of you for advocating for him incessantly!

Breanna Morello @BreannaMorello 🚨BREAKING NEWS🚨 January 6 defendant Jeremy Brown was just released from prison. Brown had his home raided by the FBI after he released audio exposing the agency for attempting to recruit him as an Oath Keepers informant prior to J6. Brown never went into the Capitol on J6. The corrupt prosecutors secured a search warrant for his home over misdemeanor trespassing allegations. The warrant was signed by a magistrate Judge that was not located in Florida. If you ask any lawyer or prosecutor they will tell you this is unheard of. Brown was targeted for exposing the...

It has been 1,243 days today that retired Green Beret Master Sergeant Jeremy Brown has been incarcerated in the federal prison system after he was handed guilty verdicts in a case that arose from a search warrant after his involvement in the Jan 6 protest. It has been 35 days since President Trump issued a blanket pardon for all offenses related to January 6th. MSG Brown was asked to provide personal security for a permitted speaker’s mother on January 6th. The Oath Keeper and retired Special Forces veteran traveled to Washington, D.C., to do just that. But after the Metropolitan...

One of President Trump’s first historic moves after assuming office in January mmuted January 6 hostages were talking all month on social media about meeting up at CPAC 2025. Following President Trump’s courageous move, hundreds of pardoned and commuted January 6 hostages were talking all month on social media about meeting up at CPAC 2025. The men and women were excited about coming together, reuniting, and meeting each other, as well as the amazing American patriots who fought for their freedom. And, of course, the January 6ers also wanted to see the man who gave them their FREEDOM, President Donald...

Outspoken January 6 prisoner Jake Lang was kicked out of CPAC on Wednesday during a live-stream video. Jake was then escorted out of the Gaylord Hotel as he kept on broadcasting! Here is the video stream from inside CPAC as Jake is escorted from the premises.

This is a 15 minute interview. Fairly easy to watch.

There are many stories about January 6 that fall by the wayside. Some January 6 defendants got extensive media coverage, especially in the immediate aftermath of January 6, but this is not representative of the overall body. Most defendants have remained nameless, faceless hostages. Real Americans have been rendered as caricatures as a way of pigeonholing them and glossing over the real experiences of that complicated day. PATRIOT PETE Peter Schwartz is many things, but an insurrectionist is not one of them. Schwartz served in the United States Army Reserve in his younger years. He ended up living a life...

New York CNN — Elon Musk-owned X has agreed to pay to settle a lawsuit from his close ally President Donald Trump over Trump’s deplatforming following the January 6, 2021, insurrection, according to multiple reports that cite people familiar with the matter. After the January 6 riot, social media companies such as X, then known as Twitter, and Meta suspended Trump from their platforms at the end of his first term. “After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of...

I was told to rat or I wouldn't see my family again. (Part 1)

In what is another massive victory for the administration of President Donald Trump, the FBI has acquiesced and given the names of every agent who was involved with the January 6 investigations to the Department of Justice. The FBI gave the names of the agents via a classified system so that they would not be identified publicly, acting Director Brian Driscoll said in an email which was obtained by FBI whistleblower Garret O’Boyle. “I want to be clear that as of now, we do not have information indicating the Department of Justice intends to disseminate these lists publicly, and they...

The U.S. Mint confirmed that a controversial coin using a description that referred to Jan. 6 freedom fighters as “insurrectionists” has been officially taken out of circulation after it was exposed by the popular social-media account Libs of TikTok on Tuesday. The commemorative coin had been authorized and first posted on the Mint’s website during the Biden administration, citing a law passed by the Democrat-controlled Congress in August 2021. It was not immediately clear how long the coin had been available, how many were struck or at what cost to U.S. taxpayers. Headline USA reached out to the Mint for...
