"On the campaign trail, Dummkopf Trumpf referred to the miscreants who attacked the US Capitol which injured USCP and MPD officers and caused millions of dollars of damage, as "unbelievable patriots" and promised to help them. On that infamous day these violent runamoks also threatened to lynch VPOTUS Mike Pence who the USSS barricaded in a safe location within Capitol Hill. After seizing power on 20 Jan 2025, Dummkopf Trumpf kept his promise and granted clemency to these maniacs, bleating: "What I did was a great thing for humanity. They were treated very, very unfairly."

Trumpf's pardons and commutations largely undid the results of one of the largest criminal probes in US history. The Department of Justice also conducted an investigation that involved over 5,000 federal agents and led to thousands of charges."


Some of the Aftermath of Dotard Trumpf's Idiotic Clemency

"At least six of the pardoned insurrectionists are charged with committing child sex crimes; five were charged with illegal possession of weapons, including two who had previous domestic violence convictions; and two were charged with rape. Among them were John Daniel Andries, a man in Maryland who was sentenced to 60 days in jail in June 2025 after repeatedly violating a peace order, similar to a restraining order, submitted by the mother of his child."

  • After being pardoned, military veteran Edward Kelley (37) was sentenced to life in prison for plotting to attack an FBI office and assassinate law enforcement officers in retaliation against them for daring to investigate him: 8 Jan Maniac Gets Life in Prison

    On 20 Jan 1977, the first act that President Jimmy Carter did in office was to pardon all draft resisters of the Vietnam War and he ordered a review of all court-martial cases relevant to US military operations in SE Asia. in sharp contrast, here is what Dummkopf Trumpf immediately did after seizing power on 20 Jan 2025: Dummkopf Trumpf Blanket Pardons 6 Jan Lunatics

    Article 25, then sentencing for his 34 felonies. Dies in prison.

    Best outcome.

    If they J6 scum had been charged with sedition and treason like they should have been, many of these scumbags would have been put to death. They are not just criminals... they are anti-American terrorists.

    " many of these scumbags would have been put to death."

    You support the death penalty?

    At the time, I supported shooting them in the act.

    Was I wrong?

    " At the time, I supported shooting them in the act."

    Even the ones who weren't violent?

    Also you really shouldn't be denouncing fascism if you support mowing down people down. Is that how LE should treat all rioters?

    " If they J6 scum had been charged with sedition and treason like they should have been"

    The SOJ was extremely aggressive in its prosecution of J6ers. If they felt they could have made a sedition charge stick they would have done so.
