It took chutzpah for Donald Trump to pardon the Jan. 6 Capitol riot defendants and use up a big chunk of his finite political capital to do the right thing, against the advice of polite Washington.
That so many people still don’t understand that it was the right thing to do is a product of a sophisticated and Machiavellian four-year propaganda campaign led by the Democratic Party’s biggest liars, Nancy Pelosi, Adam Schiff and Jamie Raskin, and their tame GOP patsy Liz Cheney.
As much as the pardons right the wrongs against individual defendants, they also are a repudiation of the J6 prosecutions and the entire weaponized legal apparatus under Joe Biden.
Before delving into the injustice and Stasi-like harassment of 1,500 J6 defendants that drove at least five to suicide, it’s worth looking at the absurdity of the wider case.
