Ken Harrelson arrested in March. He’s been detained ever since. His lawyer today said he looks terrible, can’t get a shave or haircut, has a medical condition.
Media going ALL OUT to deflect reality the Biden regime is holding political prisoners. This is a gem by @alanfeuer.
“All of those being detained on charges related to Jan. 6 are facing serious charges like assault or obstruction of Congress.” nytimes.com/2021/09/17/us/…
Now maybe @alanfeuer knows something I don’t. Please disclose how many protesters who’ve disrupted Congress were held behind bars for MONTHS on an obstruction charge. Especially under a statute aimed at interfering in Congressional investigations not a political protest.
Now @alanfeuer won’t engage me because that propaganda is aimed at gratifying the bloodlust of NYT readers. It’s not up for serious debate. Maybe Alan can explain how it’s ok to keep nonviolent defendants such as Watkins, Meggs, Harrelson, Hale at DC jail for several months?
Oath Keepers status hearing. DOJ says it’s making “progress” on discovery. Lol FBI put together still shots of USCP surveillance video for defense. DOJ does NOT want that video made public or even to defense. Just amazing.
Reminder that DOJ and USCP have total control over 14,000 surveillance video from January 6. In a recent update, DOJ said half the footage was not relevant to J6 investigation.
Judge Mehta asking if defense will be able to access video for a specific area of the Capitol.
He says it’s “critical” for defense to access video. The legal battle for USCP footage will be huge.
As we mourn the murder of nearly 3,000 Americans while taking our lives back to that horrific and heartbreaking day 20 years ago, I wonder how many feel how I do.
Unlike 20 years ago, I believe the biggest threat to America doesn’t exist outside our border. It resides here.
Our political, government, business, and academic leadership are destroying the goodness and hope of this country. They’re doing far worse damage than any foreign terror cell could possibly hope to achieve. It’s why their comparisons btw 9/11 to January 6 are so revealing.
Look no further than the collaboration between every powerful interest in 2020 to oust Donald Trump. When the folks in charge hijack one of our most sacred rights, then brag about it in plain sight, what’s more threatening to our democracy than that?
First trial date is set for end of January for detained defendants. Five Oath Keepers are behind bars awaiting trial, some have been in jail since January. Accused of no violent crimes.
Mehta addressing Ken Harrelson -- John Pierce was his attorney. He's been MIA.
David Fischer is Thomas Caldwell's attorney. He has filed a lengthy motion that argues obstruction of an official proceeding did not apply to Electoral College certification. Other attorneys have as well.
There is zero change Mehta will dismiss this charge.
Chansley, with no criminal record, will now be a convicted felon.
I cannot wait until the next massive protest in DC when leftist activists occupy a building to stop official Congressional business. Think those people will face felony charges? No way.
Al Watkins, Chansley lawyer, asking for his release. He’s been in solitary 22/23 hours a day with exception of time at time in Englewood facility.
Suffers severe mental strain. Wants him sent home to his family during pre-sentence period. Lamberth denied his release last hearing
Plea hearing up now for Jacob Chansley, the so-called QAnon shaman. Checked docket this am and no filing about plea arrangement. My guess is guilty to obstruction of an official proceeding charge.
Chansley has been incarcerated for almost 8 months, mostly I solitary.
Chansley isn’t accused of any violent crime. Judge Lamberth, an obviously cruel man who needs to retire, refused to release Chansley after last hearing even after lawyer detailed Chansley’s deteriorating mental health.
Getting started. Someone just yelled “FREEDOM.” Not sure if it was Chansley.
