White House leaving consequences of Jan. 6 to DOJ

Psaki said that Biden will leave any consequences of the Jan. 6 riots to the DOJ, when questioned about Biden blaming former President Trump in his address on Thursday.

“He’s going to leave that to the Justice Department, which is independent,” she said when asked what consequences Biden thinks Trump should face.

She added that the White House will continue to support the Jan. 6 committee’s work “but he’s not going to prejudge the outcome of that committee either.”

Biden, in his remarks, accused Trump, without ever mentioning his name directly, of spreading a “web of lies” that laid the groundwork for the attack by a mob of Trump supporters.

She was later questioned if Biden wants the DOJ to press charges against Trump for the insurrection.

“The president wants the Justice Department and the attorney general to act independently as the attorney general demanded when he accepted the job and as the president expected and demanded from any attorney general he was going to select,” she said.

Psaki said that Biden’s speech was not a directive about what the DOJ should do.

“He’s not making a judgement about or direction of what the Justice Department should do or how they should behave or act. And I don’t think that the Justice Department or the attorney general sees that he did either,” she said.

January 6 was worse than the HOLOCAUST. (raping and killing millions is nothing
January 6 was worse than the Civil War! (a million Americans killed is nothing
January 6 was worse than January 6! (when Liberal Democrats run out of January 6 hyperbole)

NO, the DOJ is not independent, any more than the SS were independent of Hitler.

So basically the corrupt DOJ is investigating members of their corrupt team.  Got it.

Or not! Where is Epps? The orange beanie crowd, and the cast of thousands (?) the feds had stirring the pot at the Capitol (not to mention the pipe bomb guy)?

There are a whole lot of questions that aren't being answered--or even asked.

The only reason to not go after someone who allegedly planted explosive devices (FIRST!!), is that they already know who did it, and he is one of their team.
