465 arrested in Capitol riot case, including at least 50 who have served in the military
2021-06-14
How many of them will actually be charged with anything serious enough to merit more than time served, if that much? Ham sandwiches can be charged easily enough, but that’s only the second step...
[EN.ALGHADEERTV.NET] America watched as hordes of rioters broke into the U.S. Capitol on January 6 — crushing through windows, pressing up stairways, and sending politicians and law enforcement running for their lives. The flood of protesters who streamed into the Capitol that day left federal authorities with an equally immense task: finding and charging those responsible.

The Department of Justice said that as of Friday, approximately 465 defendants had been arrested in connection with the attack. The government also indicated in a Friday court filing they expect to charge at least 550 people total.

Prosecutors have called the case "unprecedented" in scale, and the government said in a March court filing that the Capitol attack "is likely the most complex investigation ever prosecuted by the Department of Justice."

Reading between the media spun agenda lines.

1 was active duty service member,
4 weekend-warriors
45 previously served in the military,

So in all actuality
1 Active Duty Service member.
and 45 citizens who had served their country and still were protecting the US Constitution.

Put another way using the same logic spin.

465 Voters were arrested for protesting Congressional Representatives that refused to investigate obvious Massive Voter Fraud.

#2  Where are the mass arrests of the "rioters" who stormed the Wisconsin State Legislature a decade ago?

... of those ACTUAL rioters from BLM last May who tried to storm the White House, injuring over 60 Secret Service officers?

... of the thousands of Antifa and BLM actual rioters who have killed dozens and destroyed over $1 billion in property including federal property during the last year?

F--- yourselves, you lying hypocrites. You are destroying rule of law in this country. We see what you assholes are trying to do. Don't be surprised if the people fight back.
