House oversight committee investigating finally after 2 years why some are still locked up without a speedy trial.
US Marshall's have checked out the DC jail they are being held in and reporting egregious conditions. Poor or tainted food, denying bibles when asked, solitary confinement for months. They should immediately release any people who have not been charged or brought to trial. This ain't Venezuela yet.

I completely agree that police state tactics used on the Jan. 6 defendants is unconstitutional and reprehensible. But I also think the whole Jan. 6 protest was a "futile and stupid gesture" that not only accomplished nothing, but was a net negative for conservatives. It was a setup by Pelosi and the FBI that ought to be judged entrapment. Unfortunately a lot of conservative activists fell for it hook, line and sinker and it probably cost us the "Red Wave" we should have had in the midterms.

I'm attending a political debate Thursday night and one of the debaters, my state senator Amanda Chase, was one of the speakers at the political rally on Jan. 6 with Trump. She has staunchly defended the protest and her participation in the rally. I plan to ask her about it during the Q&A. I'll post what she says.

The whole Jan. 6 thing reminds me of this scene from Animal House.

Goes back to the Patriot Act. The slippery slope started with the ability to hold US citizens w/o charge in military jails.

@jmf552 , I completely agree and will look forward to what Amanda Chase has to say. Thanks.

But what will actually be done about it?
The problem is that the House really can't do much about it. The power lies in the Executive Branch and the [expletive] judge in D.C. rubber stamping this. At this point, all they can do is publicize it and let people know. (Sarcasm:) Just watch MSNBC, they will let us know just how much the Democrats lied.

Writ of Habeas Corpus. Just need a powerful enough attorney with the stones to do it.

I predict a few years down the road massive lawsuits.

I believe Habeas Corpus is still suspended. Please correct me if I am wrong.

I feel sure they will let those folks out right after they put out the Epstein black book list, and right after they lock up Biden for Afghanistan, and after they lock up Hitlary for getting Americans killed in Benghazi, Shift and Faucci for lying under oath, and let’s not forget Pelosi for staging Jan. 6th. Oh and let’s not forget to reward Oblunder, I feel sure there is tons he would get locked up for with the first be lying and it gets worse from there, he made Carter look decent. 😠

Yeah, that should be sarcasm but...well, it’s how things roll now days. It’s good to be a democrat or republican is all I can say, I’m not either but it would be a safe and rewarding thing if a person is one of the elite in Washington. They all are the untouchables.

That's the most frustrating thing of all.

Lois Lerner and IRS targeting: nothing.

Sandy Berger stealing classified docs: nothing.

Andrew McCabe lying under oath: fired, no criminal prosecution (i.e., nothing).

Hillary Clinton setting up an illegal and secured classified server in her house for State Department work: nothing.

And these people that were in the Capital sit in prison for over two years, without trial, for either minor vandalism or simply walking around in the building.

It's been a witch hunt since day 1. Now let's see if anyone will actually DO anything.

The answer as to why they are being held is pretty simple.

The DOJ and FBI have gang raped the constitution and gone all-in for the party of tyranny.
This 100%!

Lessee, last year 4 members of The Oath Keepers were convicted of the very rare charge of Seditious Conspiracy for their part in the festivities that occurred 6 January 2021.

Their own communications which BTW they fully own were what convicted them

They went to the Capital looking for a fight to start.

So what did most of the potatoes out in internetland do? Mostly what they always do, post dumb memes and complain

Personally I think the rally was the dumbest of a long list of very dumb ideas conjured up in the fever dreams of DJT however the OK leadership had the testicular fortitude to act on those very bad ideas. They earned every day they'll get in the old greybar hotel too but that's a story for another day.

It was a failed insurrection, just like that gaggle of weirdos from Antifa who are bothering construction of the police training facility in GA and all the BLM/Antifa rioters who looted, burned and mucked up local governments from Portland to New York City.

Political prisoners. Now if any of those held actually did physical damage, of any kind, to or inside the Capital, then they should be charged and rot until each one pays for the damage. Otherwise, we've regressed to a third world country, which is the Left's goal.

Absolutely. Power to the elites without justice at any level.
