"But never in the history of the United States have such harsh sentences been meted out for a political protest."
I love President Trump. I will change my mind if he doesn't quickly get the J6ers released.
I remember considering traveling there from WA state. I wouldn't have gotten involved with any of "the action," but I can definitely see myself standing on the perimeter if the Congressional grounds where many there were prosecuted. I couldn't fund anyone here (f'in WA state) willing to go with me. There but for the grace of God go I.
I, too, would have liked to have gone and would have just stood in protest, would not have entered any building, but my age and mobility issues prevented. It is ludicrous that people were arrested and jailed for just being there - and some kept in solitary confinement for months!! I cannot understand why they haven't been freed. YES, they are political prisoners and give reason for ALL to fear the current administration. HOPEFULLY, this can all be turned around by incoming administration.
I almost went in a carpool, but didn't want to lose more time off work after the holidays. Many times I have wondered what could have happened. These people did nothing wrong and plead guilty just to end the legal battle.
Absolutely, Jennifer...IMMEDIATE pardons for all innocent J-6 POLITICAL prisoners!
THAT was the last straw by the so-called "justice" department that to this day still infuriates me! I hope Kash shows NO mercy for those federal EMPLOYEES who participated in that TOTAL miscarriage of justice - INCLUDING the Capitol Police!
ALL of the J6ers have been in there long enough. I'm not going on the road of "innocence" or "guilty" because all of them have been in there long enough.

Putin has said the US has many political prisoners. He said so mockingly as if to say, I’m no worse than you are.

Agree...well stated. Have served enough time already.
