J6 Prosecutors Brag To Congress About Locking Up Americans For Misdemeanors

The prosecutors who dedicated themselves to getting Jan. 6 convictions cannot fathom that they were heavy-handed and unjustly charged too many people.

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.

Another disgruntled former DOJ prosecutor, Sara Levine, sobbed bitterly in a lengthy, narcissistic saga about her job, how she was hired, what she did, what it meant to her, and how she was ultimately canned. Levine didn’t cry or even show concern for locking away so many breadwinners in American families and forever blemishing their work history with a federal conviction. She was proud of the work she did at the DOJ and upset that Trump erased her efforts.

“Jan. 20, 2025 the president pardoned almost all of the defendants charged on Jan. 6 and commuted the sentence of every other rioter. I was heartbroken all that effort to pursue justice for the officers and the country was wiped away with a single proclamation,” Levine said.

After J6, former President Joe Biden’s Department of Justice spent the next four years hunting down attendees. The FBI interrogated Americans in their homes and upended many lives. Convictions were their marching orders, and they delivered, ignoring more important threats to America.

The prosecutors who dedicated themselves to getting Jan. 6 convictions cannot fathom that they were heavy-handed and unjustly charged too many people. Or that in some cases they violated the Sixth Amendment right to a speedy trial, keeping some people locked up over a year before they went to trial, and jailing people on misdemeanor charges.

That is why Democrats are sensitive about how Jan. 6 is characterized. They need Americans to believe a violent angry mob tried to overturn the election. If it was not, everything they have done in response to Jan. 6 will look awful politically.

Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL), the ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said Jan. 6 forever changed our nation.

“I can’t think of an event in my lifetime that has been subject to such historic revisionism where new people to this administration are trying to rewrite what happened on Jan 6.,” Durbin said. “Because the event was of such gravity, such historic importance, we can’t let the truth die. We have to come together regularly and tell the truth to the American people.”

Americans were not at the Capitol to stop a peaceful transfer of power, they were exercising their First Amendment right to assemble. Most were peaceful and simply wanted some commonsense election questions answered. Because Democrats were unwilling to work in good faith to investigate election anomalies, Republicans can say J6 was the day the election was stolen.

Democrats want history to believe the dubious 2020 election result was a fully legitimate a mandate for the leftist agenda they tried to implement and will surely attempt again.

Trump Will Start Nominating Federal Judges ‘Rapidly,’ He Says

Elizabeth Troutman Mitchell | May 04, 2025

President Donald Trump will nominate federal judges “rapidly,” he told The Daily Signal on Sunday night.

“We’re putting them in rapidly and trying to get very good ones, but we need judges that are not going to be demanding trials for every single illegal immigrant,” Trump said on Air Force One. “We have millions of people that have come here illegally, and we can’t have a trial for every single person, that would be millions of trials.”

Trump is off to a slower start in nominating judges than his first term, having only nominated one federal judge, Whitney Hermandorfer, who will serve on the 6th Circuit Federal Court of Appeals in Cincinnati, Ohio.

About 100 days into Trump’s first term, the Senate had already confirmed a new Supreme Court justice, Trump had nominated an appeals court judge, and several other prominent judicial nominees were in the queue to be announced within days.

But according to the president, his slow start to judicial nominations is about to morph into a sprint.

Trump said America needs federal judges who won’t insist on a trial for the deportation of every illegal immigrant.

“The people elected me in a landslide… We won every swing state… by big numbers… not only swing state, but the popular vote by millions of votes… they elected me, this was the number one issue,” Trump said, “and now we have judges that are radicalized, and they’re crazy because … if you believe this, they want us to have a trial for every person that came illegally into our country.”

“So they come into our country illegally, and we’re supposed to take weeks, I guess, and months to have a trial, you want every criminal, and we have murderers that are all over the country,” the president continued. “I don’t think the Supreme Court will stand for that, I can’t believe it, because you know what? If they do, we’re not gonna have a country.”

The Daily Signal asked the president how he will ensure his nominations are different than the judges blocking his agenda, and he said all he can do is his best.

“All you can do is do the best you can,” he said. “You try to appoint the best people to being judges or anything else that you appoint, but so far you know we’re very disappointed with the decisions that come out, mostly from people appointed by others than me.”

“But it’s so hard to believe that you have a murderer, you know we have 11,888 or whatever the number is, we have thousands of murderers in this country, we’re getting them out and they say ‘we don’t want them out, we want them to stay in our country until we have a trial,'” Trump said.

Trials take years, and America doesn’t have that much time to curb illegal immigration, according to the 47th president.

“They take years,” he said. “It’s so crazy. We won’t have a country left. We can’t have that happen.”
