J6 Prosecutors Brag To Congress About Locking Up Americans For Misdemeanors

As President Donald Trump dismantles the deep state, angry Democrats desperately defend their Jan.6, 2021 Capitol riot narrative but beam with pride that they locked up so many Americans.
Mike Romano, a former federal prosecutor at the Department of Justice (DOJ) Public Integrity Section, testified last week at a hearing rehashing Jan. 6, saying he is “proud” of the prosecutions he handled, that imprisoned people present at the Capitol.
“Thanks to the work of our team, the Justice Department charged more than 1,500 people with crimes and obtained criminal convictions against almost 1,300 people,” Romano said. “We ensured that the rioters would face accountability, no matter how short-lived. Our work created a public record of the crimes committed that day.”
Sometimes prosecutors forget their job is not to see who can secure the most convictions, but to seek justice within the bounds of the law. It is scary to hear a prosecutor brag about the number of charges and convictions he had.
