Trump Pardons 1500 J6ers (But Not Ray Epps or the Antifa Provocateur)

"Brutal and unjust."


President Donald Trump pardoned nearly all individuals charged in connection with the January 6, 2021, Capitol protests, fulfilling a central campaign promise. The sweeping clemency addressed what Trump described as politically motivated prosecutions, sparking sharp debate over the justice system's handling of the cases.

Key Details:

Trump's pardons covered more than 1,500 defendants, including prominent members of groups like the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers. Some of these individuals had been convicted of serious charges, including seditious conspiracy, while hundreds of other cases were dismissed.

The pardons undid years of prosecutions that the Department of Justice under President Biden described as its largest investigation ever, which secured over 1,100 convictions. Critics of the prosecutions cited long pretrial detentions and harsh sentencing as evidence of bias.

Trump condemned the treatment of the defendants, calling it "brutal and unjust," and commuted the sentences of more than a dozen individuals still incarcerated. "We hope they come out tonight," Trump said of those awaiting release.


This damp liberal explains the situation to his fellow damp liberals:


Sean T at RCP
@SeanTrende

To understand the Right re J6: They believe that the reason the dividing line between J6 getting prosecuted and, say, Portland rioters not is because norms are set by liberals to protect liberal ingroups while allowing the prosecution of outgroups. 1/

This is also the dividing line between Trumpy populists and GOP establishment types; the latter says "well we should prosecute the goons in OR too" while the former says that is hopelessly naive bc, again, the lines are set by liberals to protect their ingroups. 2/

This isn't a defense of the populists at all. This is just to explain the "burn it down" mindset: "it" is a rigged game with rules set by liberals. If this sounds like left critiques of the past decade, well, it's why we're getting this horseshoe effect of, say, RFK & Trump. 3/3

Final thought: This is why the "but J6 was so much worse" argument doesn't work for them. Even conceding that is true, they will say, the point is that the dividing line between "punish" and "don't" is always magically set to excuse the left and punish the right. 4/3

And the populist Right's main deviation from the Establishment Right is a belief that they can and should use their power to set what are viewed arbitrary rules to their benefit when they have the chance. 5/3

I don't think this is true at all.

Unsurprise.

It's more about tit for tat.

Trump was the good man who followed every judicial order, never pardoned his family or himself, and was generally a very restrained president in the first term. What did that get him? 2 impeachments and endless prosecution once he left office.

Being upright simply does not work. It won't work until the left is afraid of retribution. This is about evening the playing field. This is about getting the left, the establishment left in particular, to give up the maximalism around the use of power with the lesson: It doesn't work and it will come back on them.

Also, the whole, "populists are icky because rule breaking" is hilarious when Biden pardoned his family for everything for 10 years. Add that up with the accepted reality that fed prosecutors are overzealous in getting convictions and pleas, and you've got a whine against people resisting a system that is, on its face, one-sided and unjust.

Proud is used as a polite euphemism for a "boner".

Calling Hitler a "populist" ignores that he was trying to popularize his world view. He was a devout Volkist and fascist ideologue in a country that was not fascist yet.

The Nazi party never received the "popular vote" until they made almost every other party illegal.

Did German supremacism have a popular appeal in Germany? It did. But simply because it had a popular appeal, it does not make it "Whatever the people of Germany want", which is the jist of what "populism" is.

This idea is more prog fog.

Trende is their elections pollster whisperer at RCP.

Discussing this situation is out of his wheelhouse and little different than what the other babbling idiots in the media say to each other.

This should be viewed more like the Palmer raids in 1920 except less violent. It was never about 'overthrowing' the government but to explicitly protest and make aware of those in Congress that they should not certify a fraudulent election.

Congress critters, GOPe and Dems alike, knew what they were doing was wrong but decided Orangeman Bad superceded all standards of law, decency, and justice.

Thus, sentencing Jan 6 protestors to cruel and unusual punishment in incarceration and punishment grossly disproportionate to the offenses cited along with not treating similarly situated defendants in the same manner (aka leftist protesters burning and looting in 2020 and 2016. They were tried for lese majeste.

That argument doesn't work for me because their central underlying premise is bullshit. According to them, the people of J6 were trying to overthrow the government. I've still yet to hear a compelling argument describing how the J6 people might have pulled that off. The closest I've heard is either, "they were going to kill congressmen" and then handwave handwave Trump is dictator. Or, "they were going to seize the elector's votes" and then handwave handwave Trump is dictator.

The latter "explanation" is hilarious to me. The paper tally of what votes the electors turn in are not magic cards. If they were seized, the electors could have simply signified again for whom they voted.

160 Even without the Antifa and St. George Floyd rioters getting away with their crimes without consequence, pardoning the Jûers is the correct move.

It's impossible for a Trump voter to get a fair jury trial in D.C for a crime against a Democrat. If the government can't give you a fair trial, you go free. That's how the system works.

Biden had the option of making these trials more fair by agreeing to a change of venue. He didn't.. Therefore pardons are the only solution.

163 I also think part of the reason nobody on our side gives a shit about whether any J6er slugged a capitol cop (assuming any did) is because the capital cops are corrupt, loathsome scumbuckets. They are more leftwing political figures than actual law enforcement.

The capitol police are all fat-fuck DEI hires who murdered a woman on J6 and beat another to death. So they can all suck my balls. The line forms to the right.

If the administration of justice was fair, was not wholly corrupted by "who is in power," then there would be no need for Biden to have issued any pardons yesterday.

As I said months and months ago:
We would have no need to fear a tyrant, a dictator, a strongman, a Hitler, or even the worst exaggeration of a Trump if the left hadn't spent the last 150 years dismantling and removing all Constitutional guardrails, restraints and restrictions upon the power of the state.

227 I like this tale about Johann Tetzel who sold a lot of pardons for the Catholic Church's funding of St. Peter's:

"Some accounts relate that Tetzel once sold an indulgence to a nobleman who was seeking protection against a future sin. Subsequent to the transaction, the nobleman, with the aid of a few accomplices, set upon Tetzel and beat him. Having delivered the beating, the nobleman then informed Tetzel that the attack on him was the sin for which he had purchased the indulgence."

245 "But you're cheering about Trump's TikTok extension which is, on its face, illegal! You are hypocrits!"
Posted by: TheJamesMadison

Actual law is at 15 U.S. Code § 9901 - Prohibition on transfer of personally identifiable sensitive data of United States individuals to foreign adversaries. Amusingly enough, it gives the FTC the power to ban Tik Tok as a deceptive or unfair trading practice. It does not single out Tik Tok by name nor actually do what most of the media claims it does.

So, Trump is actually well within his legal powers as he hasn't appointed his FTC commissioners yet AFAIK.

Basically ignore most if not all media 'hot takes' on statutory law unless it comes from someone who is actually a specialist in the topic.

Another thing. Was a formal “Insurrection” signed through ? Who gets to make that call?

N.b. this is a very specific legal term. Under the “law” government agents can indeed lock your ass up with no charges, no bail, no lawyer and no trial.

So which is it? This is simultaneously much more simple, and much more complicated. The short answer of course, is the leftist progressives shit in their mess kit, as is their custom. But this needs to be fleshed out.

298 Just because some assclown on the TV calls something an “Insurrection” that does make it so.

One of the more disturbing and dangerous form of rhetoric we see today is the “fact by assertion” in media and politicians. Because I said something, that makes it true. No proof or evidence necessary.
“He’s been credibly accused!”

Well allrighty then. Let’s throw out 900 years of learned jurisprudence and precedent, the presumption of innocence. And these are fucking attorneys making up this bullshit.

And don’t you just love the AP passing editorials off as straight news. “Trump falsely claimed without evidence blah blah blah”

What about his “Lived Experience” you guys? He can just say it is “My Truth” anyhow.

Be sure to use this the next time you are debating someone. Sprinkle some “My Truth” in there. Besides, all of this stuff is just white supremacy and nazi ideology anyhow. My truth trumps your facts, logic, reason, history,, evidence. It just makes sense, if you think about it. Any opinion is equally valid to objective fact. (Depending on what the meaning if “is” is, natch)

The J6 stuff was a railroading, where everyone took a nasty beating. The Antifa stuff was real, and violent and destructive, and they all got a waiver for it.

That's what people are pissed about - even normally boring mainstream libs don't like it.

It's not a big mystery that we need Sherpa Shawn to guide us through. It's straight up injustice.

Not to mention their "violent" adage is bullshit, as Biden pardoned silvertone who killed two federal agents, because (as is usually the case) the killer is from a protected group (likewise I don't care that he's sick and dying, that isn't a get out of jail free card, let him rot on a concrete prison floor)

There are currently 6 states with a single, at-large member of the house. 4 of those states are very red (Alaska, both Dakotas, Wyoming).

All four of those states should split into multiple states. 4 Alaskas, 2 Wyomings, and 2 more Dakotas. We'd gain 12 Senators and 6 House seats.

Don't let a Greenlander hear you calling them "Inuit". They consider themselves quite distinct. I believe that, before the Vikings arrived, they came from a different migration from Siberia than did the Inuit, and later, various Indians. And since the advent of the Vikings, there has been a big admixture of Viking genes into their makeup. Greenlanders tend to be much, much taller than the Inuit on Baffin Island.

530 468 Interwebz say it only takes a simple majority of both Houses of Congress to add a state. A state can only split into 2 (or more?) states if that state agrees. Each state gets 2 senators and at least 1 member of the house.

There are currently 6 states with a single, at-large member of the house. 4 of those states are very red (Alaska, both Dakotas, Wyoming).

All four of those states should split into multiple states. 4 Alaskas, 2 Wyomings, and 2 more Dakotas. We'd gain 12 Senators and 6 House seats.

I seriously doubt any existing states will ever voluntarily split. What's in it for the legislators and governor of an existing state? They'd get diminished relative representation (power) in the Senate and the House, reduced opportunities for donations, reduced opportunities to dole out political favors in return for donations, reduced opportunities for graft...

The action is an early indication of the president's determination to exact retribution on perceived adversaries and is the latest point of tension between Trump and an intelligence community of which he has been openly disdainful. The sweeping move, announced via executive order Monday, also sets up a potential court challenge from ex-officials seeking to maintain access to sensitive government information.

Some low level thugs who've been doing the J6 committee 's dirty work need to be made examples of.
Send the message that while your evil masters might get a pardon, you minions will totally be hung out to dry.

End time for the Biden blanket pardons was 12 noon Jan 20th. The conspiracy to imprison J6ers continued until after then as they were still in prison.

619 The FIB's explanation for the FIB assets being there was bad.

They were informants who just came on their own. (as civilians then), not in an official FIB capacity.

Also, we're not going to prosecute them despite they decided to do what everybody we're prosecuting decided to do.

It's terrible that people entered the capital and tried to overthrow our government--but not so terrible that we can't let FIB assets off for deciding the same things as the people we're prosecuting, and in some cases worse.

620 >> I think we need Publius to flesh out what “12:01 Eastern” really is. Noon mean meridian? Solar?

It means 17:01 UTC. :-) While the 20th Amendment says only "noon on January 20th", federal law specifies that such "ambiguous" times are defined as whatever the official "standard time in the zone" as defined by the standards are.

And that means it's UTC - 5.

That's exactly what happened. They got a little behind, due to excessive speechifying, and CJ Roberts got worried they weren't gonna get the oath in time and so rushed everybody.

No problem really. Shit Pants was out at 12:00 EST, and Trump was the new POTUS. However, he does have to take the oath before he can exercise the powers of the office, per the wording of the Constitution.

A minute delay, which while maybe leaving a power gap (what if the Russians attacked, or something before he had taken the oath...) is no big deal.

629 From the day after it was obvious that they were trying to frame J6 as something it was not...

They needed to believe. They wanted to have it be true. "Perception," especially perception of what they really really want to be reality, is a big thing for the Left.

Reality begs to differ and they can't stand that.

I'm curious, because I didn't see the woman pastor praying. How did people know she was a lesbian, and I guessing she was Episcopalian, what did she say that was so smug and superior?

Posted by: FenelonSpoke at January 21, 2025 02:12 PM (MDgRg)

643 It's not complicated.

Forget the Portland Riots - I recall lefties banging on the door of the supreme court, trying to bash there way in, because they didn't like a ruling.

Was ANYONE prosecuted?

And it not just about prosecution, it's about detaining people for YEARS without trial. About sentences way out of proportion to the offense.

To be in Episcopalian clergy you have to at least profess to be bicurious.

I think probably not if "bi-curious" means that they're engaging in homosexual acts as supposed to supporting gays in ministry. Not every woman in the Episcopal ministry is gay.

648 The Right believes that government is for boosting the Good and hurting the Bad.

Grammy praying in front of an abortion clinic is Good. Laudable, excellent, admirable. If the police meet her, they should greet her with respect and concern for her wellbeing.

Antifa burning down a police station is Bad. Scumsucking, nasty, awful. If the police meet a criminal so engaged, they should beat him down, cuff him, read him his rights, and toss him into the back seat of the popo's car for immediate transport to a prison. After that, he should be quickly tried, fined, imprisoned, and sent to jail for the required time as set in law.
