It matters in politics.
January 6th / Capital Insurrection Thread
- Thread starter homersheineken
- Start date
If I had been there that day, I would have gone in.
Liberals have been invading capital buildings both before and after J6. There was every reason to think it was OK to go in there and protest the stolen election. The actual J6 event was instigated by feds with the intent of creating this extreme over reaction. We see that they used this in hindsight and convicted a lot of people in kangaroo courts, but nobody was expecting this on the day it happened.
I think people who have seen and felt the oppression of the left against the American people would be perfect for office, as long as they make it clear that they are there to destroy the deep state that did this to them.
Perception wise - sure. And many of them have showed an incredible spirit in captivity, which is something that the current crop of congrescritters is lacking. But if they do go into politics, it shouldn't be based on their imprisonment in itself - many of them enterded plea deals, for reduced sentences - but on the strenght that some of them showed.

Looks like the blanket pardon was a last minute gut decision.

Trump doesn't rely on a sophisticated worldview to lead. He goes on pure instinct, and he is, more often than not, one of us.

Check out how badly they treated the proud boys in prison.
Enrique Tarrio wasnt grey before he was arrested.
Reminder that as recently as a few months ago, the FBI was still hounding J6ers with early morning raids (a socal raid of note elsewhere on forum).
The rot goes deep - and it isn't isolated to a few locations. These J6ers were rounded up across the country, for the previous 4 years, with all levels of LE involved (think of all the "counter-terrorism" task forces, that include local cops as well, that were activated to affect these raids).
The prosecutions were malicious and excessive. The trials were a miscarriage. The judges ruled almost exclusively in favor of prosecution (such, in a jurisdiction famous for leniency to violent criminals, including BLM/Antifa types that stormed the Trump 45 White House). Judges created unjust new legal precedence to convict totally peaceful J6ers (drop in the lake principal = guilt by association). The jury was stacked with imperial servants. They worked every FBI field office into the dragnet. They worked countless local LEOs into the dragnet. They raided with impunity - under false color of law - using warrants from the politicized DC Court and Washington Field Office (jurisdiction shopped) to operate nationwide. I remember talk about the US Capitol Police establishing offices around the country to simply pursue this matter. The rot is deep and wide.
Releasing J6ers is a great first step, but there's much more to do.
