Trump Personally Intervenes to Block Release of Jan 6 Docs

Tuesday, December 09, 2025

The Department of Justice has confirmed that President Donald Trump blocked the release of more than 4,100 documents related to the deadly riot on January 6. In a court filing Monday night, lawyers for the DOJ revealed that Trump had stepped in to prevent the release of some material requested as part of a lawsuit brought by police officers injured by violent rioters at the U.S. Capitol. The materials were originally subpoenaed from the National Archives and Records Administration in February.

Of course, he did.

Totally normal behavior for someone who didn't incite a riot to try and overturn an election...

This won't stop until both parties start holding their own accountable and removing criminals from office to imprison them.

Which means Never.

Brazil has the right idea.

Lock Criminals Up.

No matter who they are.

Why can they do it but its to Tough for the Exceptional Nation?

Even Israel slimy as they are, has locked up several previous prime ministers for Crimes considered minor by comparison to what American Presidents routinely commit.

Exceptional in Lawlessness,Exceptional in Moral Taint.
