Questioning the January 6 Aftermath
American Thinker ^ | 17 Mar, 2023 | Jacqualine Henry

If the Department of Justice can weaponize the FBI and legal system to target and make a cautionary tale out of ideological opposition, who’s next?

Tucker Carlson’s release of January 6th footage raises questions about the status of free speech and due process of law. For more than two years, politicians, media, and big tech have worked together to proliferate a narrative: January 6th was an entirely “violent insurrection,” and according to Vice President Kamala Harris, even on par with the bombing of Pearl Harbor and the September 11th terrorist attacks. Department of Justice (DoJ) prosecutors have worked diligently to publicize and penalize all participants, including the peaceful ones, to the most severe extent possible.

SNIP

Is Lady Justice truly blind or are we politically persecuting dissent? Do all of the J-6ers sitting in prison for years truly deserve to be there? Why is the DoJ withholding exculpatory evidence, despite transparency being mandated under the Brady rule? Why does the DoJ refuse to move the J-6 trials outside of D.C. despite multiple requests? Why is the DoJ not permitting supervised release to local jurisdictions? Why are two-dozen J-6 defendants still being held in pretrial detention more than two years after their alleged crimes? Why do the J-6 plea deals silence defendants? How were the defendants in the 1968 D.C. riots, the Chicago’s Grant Park riot and the Atlanta’s “Cop City” riot treated in comparison to J-6ers? Who is Ray Epps and why was he not arrested for inciting a riot? Who opened the Columbus Doors and why? Why are so many politicians opposed to America’s citizens seeing peaceful segments of the January 6th footage? If the Department of Justice can weaponize the FBI and legal system to target and make a cautionary tale out of ideological opposition, who’s next?

This is what happens during communist revolutions. Some revolutions are sudden, but this one is slowly ramping up and hoping that most people don’t notice until it is too late.

It’s not clear to me that We The People will be allowed to put our own leaders in charge of the government ever again.

But if we do, we need to clearly understand that the pendulum needs to swing the other way. No more “hands across the aisle”. No more “bipartisan efforts”. We need to hunt these people down like dogs and we need to play very fast and loose with rules so that we can get them, and get them good, and grind them into the dust. I want to hear the lamentations of their women.

Kamala knows a lot about Hitler's attack on Pearl Harbor. Hawaii is just a few miles off the coast of California and the Germans could have easily bombed Hollywood or Silicon Valley on their long flight back to Europe.

IMHO, it is telling that Carlson’s presentation didn’t have much of the multiple hours of footage showing FBI goon Epps shouting at protesters to ‘go into the capital?’ From what I read there were many calls between Pelosi’s office and Epps cell phone the weeks prior to J6? Carlson aired the symptom but not the cause. Out of curiosity is Epps an agent, asset, or a simple stooge of the FBI?

<>We are.<>

The rats will steal 2024 as they did 2020 and 2022.

Yes, we are next. The J6 gulag is practice, a warmup for what is coming.
