DC Mayor Is Unwilling To Answer Congressional Letter on Prison Conditions for Jan. 6 Protesters Held Illegally by their Country

The U.S. House Oversight is threatening to investigate the condition of prisons in D.C. where prisoners, including those held since January 6 for Capitol Hill offenses, are being held in solitary confinement, claiming Bowser is not ready for DC Statehood until she complies with their requests.

U.S. Rep. James Comer (R-KY), the Republican leader of the U.S. House Oversight Committee, sent Washington DC Mayor Muriel Bowser a letter in April, requesting information about Bowser’s established draconian conditions in D.C. jails keeping prisoners under her jurisdiction in solitary confinement for up to 23 hours a day. Further, Bowser’s refusal to answer to the U.S. House impacts her pursuit of Statehood for D.C. According to one local activist who has studied the situation, she has even made the situation worse because of the investigation.

Suzanne Monk, the founder of ReOpen America Pac, told The Gateway Pundit:

    Remember this is anyone in D.C. who is awaiting trial, which includes people who are there as a result of January 6, who are still awaiting trial and are being held in solitary confinement for up to 23 hours a day. After Rep. Comer sent his letter, Bowser made the situation worse by claiming that anyone who had gotten vaccinated could have a break in solitary. So that makes it worse for those people in there. We are watching this situation and will update you.

"The U.S. House Oversight is threatening to investigate the condition of prisons in D.C. where prisoners, including those held since January 6 for Capitol Hill offenses, are being held in solitary confinement, claiming Bowser is not ready for DC Statehood until she complies with their requests."

Does this imply that if Bowser DOES comply with their requests that DC will then become "ready for statehood"???

A Congressional inquiry?

Why haven't those people held in violation of their rights sued the city of DC for ten million dollars each for cruel and unusual punishment and all the other constitutional violations that have been going on?

And good lawyer should be able to get those people released, even if the Rodents are fascists.

It's not like the protestors harmed anyone.
The GOP is not the party leadership.  The GOP is the party MEMBERSHIP.   The members need to kick the leaders out if they leaders are going the wrong way.  No coddling allowed.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
