FBI has names of hundreds more Jan. 6 rioters. DOJ needs more lawyers to prosecute them.
Citizen sleuths armed with the internet say they've identified dozens of additional rioters who haven’t been arrested.

WASHINGTON — Aided by citizen sleuths who keep identifying Jan. 6 rioters, the Justice Department is finding that it has more cases than lawyers to prosecute them.

Fifteen months after a mob stormed the Capitol in support of then-President Donald Trump's efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss, more than 775 defendants have been arrested. More than 225 have pleaded guilty so far, and two have been convicted at trial: one by a jury and one by a judge. More than 50 have been sentenced to prison.

That leaves more than 500 active cases that still need to be resolved, either by plea deal or trial.

The Justice Department is asking Congress for additional funds to prosecute those cases — a list that keeps growing.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
They have to hurry up and get convictions before the entrapment is exposed, and the news of the stolen election, with evidence, reaches critical mass. especially after the 'kidnap the governor' entrapment fiasco.

I firmly believe that if the depth of Federal involvement in the 1/6 events was fully known, from Ray Epps to a host of others, and right down to Capitol Police opening the doors and waving people in, there would be no convictions and plenty of lawsuits. Right now, the FeeBIes are fighting for their hides.

It's a crying shame that a DOJ/FBI/etc. with integrity was not investigating Hunter's Laptop or the Election Fraud of 2020, or Hillary's corruption, instead of being weaponized Communist tools hell-bent on supporting those who are destroying this Republic.

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.
