To the Editor, In case you forgot, a small portion of the Jan 6th insurrection. https://youtu.be/I3LjfmUDXbU
All of you who voted for Trump must be very proud of Trump pardoning 1500 January 6th felons some of which severely attacked police who were trying to protect the Capital from a primal attack by a crowd instigated by Trump. The rioters used any violent weapon they could find to pummel the police. When it was over 140 police officers were wounded many still carrying those scars today.
Below is a small sample of the felons that were released by Trump.
- * Daniel Joseph "DJ" Rodriguez, sentenced to 51 months, who can be seen on video, federal prosecutors said, deploying an "electroshock weapon" against a policeman, (Officer Michael Fanone) who was dragged out of the defensive line, by "plunging it into the officer's neck". Officer Fanone suffered a series of strokes after the event that resulted in him not be able to work as a Capital policeman again.
- * William Lewis, 37 months- "sprayed streams of Wasp and Hornet Killer spray at multiple officers on four distinct occasions." Forcing several to "seek treatment for their eyes."
- * Isreal Easterly, 30 months-blasted an officer "in the face with pepper spray at point-blank range," after which the officer "collapsed and temporarily lost consciousness, which enabled another rioter to steal his baton."
- * Thomas Casselman, 40 months- hit multiple officers "near their faces" with pepper spray.
- * Curtis Davis 24 months-punched two officers in the head. That night he filmed a video in he dragged: "Them knuckles right there from one of those mxxxxxfaces at the Capitol."
- * Ronald McAbee, 70 months-hit an officer wearing "reinforced brass knuckle gloves," and held an officer down on the ground as "other rioters assailed him causing a concussion."
- * Michael Foy 40 months, brought a hockey stick with the TRUMP 2020 Flag attached, which he swung "over his head and downward at police officers as it he were chopping wood.
In addition:
* Logan James Barnhart was convicted of assaulting, resisting, or impeding certain officers using a dangerous weapon. He was sentenced to 36 months in prison.
* Robert Wayne Dennis was convicted of civil disorder, two counts of assaulting, resisting or impeding certain officers, engaging in physical violence in a restricted building or grounds, entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds, and act of physical violence in the Capitol grounds or buildings. He was sentenced to 36 months in prison.
* Vincent Gillespie was convicted of assaulting, resisting, or impeding officers; civil disorder; engaging in physical violence in a restricted building or grounds; and act of physical violence in the Capitol grounds or buildings. He was sentenced to 67 months in prison.
* Patrick Edward McCaughey was convicted of three counts of aiding or abetting or assaulting, resisting, or impeding law enforcement officers, including one involving a dangerous weapon; obstruction of an official proceeding; interfering with a law enforcement officer during a civil disorder; disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds with a deadly or dangerous weapon; engaging in physical violence in a restricted building or grounds with a deadly or dangerous weapon; disorderly conduct in a Capitol Building; and committing an act of violence in the Capitol Building or grounds. He was sentenced to 90 months in prison. Complete list https://www.newsweek.com/full-list-january-6-prisoners-released-2018097
J6 defendant Daniel Ball who had a previous conviction for strangulation, domestic violence, and for resisting law enforcement with violence, couldn't even make it a day before being in custody again on federal charges of possessing a firearm as a felon. Ball was facing 12 charges including setting off an explosive device in the Capital tunnel. (https://www.thedailybeast.com/pardoned-jan-6-defendant-arrested-a-day-after-getting-break-from-trump)
In addition, the leaders of the Proud Boys, Enrique Tarrio, and Oath Keepers, Stewart Rhodes, right-wing terrorist organizations were released. Rhodes was welcomed back at the Capital by a group of Republicans on Wednesday. Tarrio claimed it is time for retribution for anyone who held these criminals accountable. What do you think that means, January 6th 2.0??
On Hannity Wednesday night, Trump stated that it was too cumbersome to go over every case individually so he decided to release them all no matter the charge.
When a reporter asked Trump why someone like Daniel Rodriguez (first name above) should be released from prison for his vicious attack on Officer Michael Fanone, Trump questioned whether that was a commutation or a pardon, he was told it was indeed a pardon. Trump then said that they would be looking into it. Hate to tell Trump but once he pardoned them it is complete no looking back. The officers who have spoken out are now receiving violent death threats. Trump does not know or care who he has unleashed on the country.
Trump also said there is no other President that supports law enforcement more than he does. His actions speak otherwise. Trump does not care about law and order or backing the blue when he turned loose these violent criminals who attacked the police and desecrated the Capital. If you voted for Trump, you are complicit and don't claim your surprise now that he did this. Trump has been saying for years that we would release these thugs and only because they were doing it for him and that is all that counts.
Out of respect for the police officers who were viciously attacked on Jan. 6, do not assert what I have written is false or fake news. Everything written can be corroborated as true. You may love Trump but you cannot claim Jan. 6th did not happen, police officers were not hurt and our Capital was not desecrated. I know there probably someone who will respond to this letter saying well what about the last administration to deflect from Trump. This is not about anyone other than Trump and his despicable actions. Defend that.

Maybe 1,600 were pardoned or commuted for low-caliber drug crimes. Dual standards of Justice. Probably not done by Joe himself. I wonder if he knows what day it is. Anyway, common practice for Presidents to pardon individuals before leaving office. Nothing unusual about that. But if you condemn one you must condemn the other.
Editor's note: Just because I don't want to enter any legal issues, President Trump was not convicted of rape.
When have you started worrying about equal treatment for both parties since for years your comments have denegrated anything Democrats have done and praised everything Republicans have done. Where is YOUR condemnation of Trump's action? I wrote someone would talk about what aboutism. You just proved my point.

Read the book. "Three felonies a day" get real.
After four years of the Biden Crime Family, their total failures at everything, their freak show of cabinet members and unconstitutional lawfare against political opponents and free speech, the day of getting this country back on track with common sense.
What about those riots during the summer of love, where there was billions of dollars in property damage and murders?
The only murder on January 6th was a unarmed female protestor who was a veteran, killed by a Capital Police Officer. Why was he pardoned? Why was each member of the January 6th Committee pardoned AND all of the evidence destroyed??? Maybe to hide the fact people were charged with crimes they did not commit?? Maybe also because the Committee members lied?
Editor's note: Another woman was murdered when she was shot in the face with a crowd control tear gas type piece of equipment. She was then beaten after by a female officer. Then dragged into the capitol building by officers.
2. Distribute quantity of mixture or substance containing a detectable amount cocaine base (crack), aiding and abetting (five counts); possess with intent distribute quantity of mixture or substance containing detectable amount of cocaine base (crack), aiding & abetting
3. Violation of supervised release (unlawful distribution of cocaine, two counts)
DL, if you were referring to birth right citizenship, the Constitution does not guarantee citizenship to the child of a foreign national just because the child was born in America. That isn't what was defined in the 14th Ammendment. You and others from the Left are grasping at straws to make something different to benefit the agenda you are pushing. It is either that, or you have minimal understanding of the US Constitution. I'm betting it is both..
I personally don't care that your article states that it is factual. Come on.....CBS was your source. Really?
I was so shocked that Biden, in 2020, received 10 million more votes than ever in an election. Those mystery voters sure disappeared in this last election. We the people spoke in 2024!
I took a day off from work in 2020 to watch the Jan. 6, 2020, peaceful transition. I listened to Trump give his speech; it was very emotional. Then watched the whole Jan.6 LIVE! If I would have known at that moment, that Jan 6 would be so politically used, I would have recorded, each and every live scene! What I saw that day with my own eyes, not through the lens of your so called factual mainstream media, was far from the truth. I watched as Ray Epps urged people to go to the people's house. Watched officers guide Americans inside the capitol. I watch officers remove barricades for our citizens to walk through. Then within hours of the actual event, the politically biased mainstream news had already started editing and only show you what they wanted Rosemary to see.
I think our government used American citizens for an example. I know there are some that were accused and some convicted that were innocent of what they were charged for, by the party, that only craved more power and control. What if this had been you and you told the truth, but it didn't fit their political agenda?
It has finally been told in the Congress that there were FBI, CIA agents infiltrated in the crowds, directing American Citizens to play out the narrative they needed to scare and control us.
Let's just wait and see all the truths unfold.
And if you can't condemn Biden for all the pardons he just gave, you need to just keep your head in the sand for the next 4 years!
I pray for America daily, for those on both sides of the political spectrum, and I will keep you in my prayers also. We are all human and will make mistakes, but by the Grace of God, I pray this new Administration follows the will of our Lord Jesus Christ.
We voted for good versus evil. I hope you continue to seek help for your TDS.
Respectfully,

Section 1
ALL persons BORN OR NATURALIZED in The United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, ARE citizens of The United States, and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Now, for someone like you, I should explain that, throughout the entirety of our Constitution, there is a difference between, when it uses the words "citizens" and "person(s). A citizen is all persons born or naturalized in the United States. A person(s) is any living or expired human being under the jurisdiction of the laws of the United States.
That is all a part of our Constitution. No one, in a unilateral way, can change our Constitution.
Once again, in order to Amend any part of our Constitution (as it is a working document), a replacement Amendment must be proposed by Congress, and voted on, with 2/3 vote of each chamber of Congress, to pass. Then, the proposed Amendment must be sent to each of the 50 States to vote on the proposal. The Amendment can then be passed, if 3/4 (38 of the 50) states vote to ratify it.
Logic? I have not witnessed any of that from the Marxist leftwing cult. So I will take that as a compliment, maybe you do still have the ability to learn.
