As the DOJ scrambles to maintain its narrative, it is clear that the January 6 Commission’s investigation was always a power trip that thrived on selective prosecution and political persecution. The thousands of individuals charged for their roles in the Capitol riot are now being threatened with further punishment for an act they have yet to commit—accepting a pardon from Trump. This heavy-handed approach from the DOJ only highlights the corruption and bias behind the January 6 Commission.
Furthermore, the DOJ’s concern over Trump’s pardons borders on absurdity. While they characterize the pardons as “purely speculative,” Trump has made it abundantly clear that he intends to grant pardons swiftly upon taking office.
The DOJ’s aggressive stance on pardons also exposes the selective prosecutorial nature of the January 6 Commission. The commission, under the guise of investigating the Capitol riot, has become a vehicle for persecuting those who dared to challenge the status quo. The thousands of individuals charged, many of whom were peaceful protesters, journalists, or first-time offenders, face severe sentences for their alleged participation in a riot that could have been stopped at the source. The riot at the Capitol was a setup. If Nancy Pelosi adhered to Trump’s calls for the National Guard to preempt any violence, then there would have been no riot. If D.C police had not openly allowed protesters to breach the Capitol, then there wouldn’t be a riot. If FBI informants and antifa hadn’t goaded angry protesters into acting out, then there would have been no riot.
The DOJ’s claim that accepting a pardon is an admission of guilt is a desperate attempt to make their entire investigation and their authority appear legitimate. However, this logic has a glaring inconsistency: when the son of President Joe Biden, Hunter Biden, was granted a sweeping pardon, the DOJ did not assert that he had confessed to guilt. This double standard reveals the DOJ’s true colors: a corrupt and biased institution willing to manipulate legal arguments to fit their agenda.
This double standard is not lost on the public, who have grown increasingly skeptical of the DOJ’s motives. The commission’s actions, including the destruction of evidence, withholding of key information, and the targeting of Trump supporters, have raised serious questions about the integrity of the investigation. The DOJ’s current panic over Trump’s pardons only adds to the perception that the entire investigation was a sham designed to silence dissent and maintain the political status quo.
As hundreds of wrongfully accused individuals wait for Trump to take the helm of the presidency, the DOJ can only mock them and make desperate attempts to salvage their own sordid legacy, which is nothing but a smokescreen for their failed and corrupt investigation. As Trump prepares to grant pardons to January 6 political prisoners, it is clear that the DOJ’s “most sweeping criminal probe” will be swiftly unraveled. The public, long skeptical of the commission’s motives, will finally see the truth come to light. The DOJ’s hypocrisy and selective prosecution will not be forgotten, and the countless individuals wrongly persecuted for their involvement in the January 6 event will finally gain the justice they deserve.
