Jenna Griswold sent out 300,000 ballots to undocumented immigrants, claiming it was a mistake, but it seems intentional. She had their addresses and knowingly sent the ballots. Anyone who opposes the constitution, fair elections, and border security is, in my opinion, a domestic terrorist who should leave the country. Instead of imprisoning those involved in the January 6th incident, we should focus on holding these individuals accountable for stealing our freedoms.

Pardoning individuals involved in the January 6th Capitol violence was a mistake, as it may suggest that such actions are acceptable. This could lead to increased violence and undermines law enforcement. While Trump has generally supported law enforcement, his decision to issue these pardons disappointed many in that community. He had previously indicated he would do so, which was not surprising. The broader issue of pardoning those who commit violent acts or destroy property, regardless of political affiliation, raises concerns about the abuse of presidential pardon power.

We need to find moral clarity in our country. After January 6th, Mitch McConnell correctly placed the blame on Donald Trump, but many have since backtracked and lost their moral center. Condoleezza Rice suggested we move on from January 6th, but I disagree; it was an atrocity and one of the worst moments in American history. We must remember events like this, alongside historical tragedies such as World War II, the Holocaust, and chattel slavery. Forgetting these events can lead to repeating the past.

Speaker 0: Some Republicans want Trump as their next candidate, but I can't speak for all Republicans. I still consider myself a Republican in the sense of Senator Mitt Romney and the Reagan Republican Party. The Republican Party needs a strong conservative, and I don't think Trump fits that. This upcoming election is crucial for the party, and if politicians in Congress want to make a stand, they need to do it now. It's disappointing that they support him despite his actions on January 6. If they can't split from him, a third party may be necessary.

Your party supports law enforcement, but if released prisoners commit crimes, should Trump be held accountable? No more than Biden should be for his policies. If Biden charges offenders who reoffend, he bears responsibility. Why can't your party admit when Trump is wrong? If offenders like the Proud Boys reoffend after being released, isn't Trump responsible? If judges are Trump-appointed, they face consequences; if Biden-appointed, they often walk free. During the Black Lives Matter protests, many offenders weren't prosecuted. You claim there's no coverage of riots, but that’s not true. I left the White House during a riot, and my life was threatened, yet there's no coverage of that. If they break the law, they go to jail. I asked you to acknowledge if you think the pardons are wrong. Those released under Soros-backed DAs often commit worse crimes without punishment. Thank you for your time.

Joe Biden's Department of Justice has caused significant suffering, and justice feels delayed for many. I want to express my gratitude to President Trump for keeping his promise to pardon the January 6th defendants on his first day in office, despite pushback from some Republicans. This act will alleviate a lot of pain and is a crucial first step toward healing and justice for those whose lives have been devastated by the actions of the current administration.

We need to subpoena everyone involved, including judges and their families. Red state AGs must take action against Democrats turning minor offenses into major crimes. The party pushing for Trump's prosecution doesn't understand America. Trump supporters are not violent. Republicans will win big in November. If Trump wins, he should go after Democrats for real crimes. I'll sit back, have a beer, smoke a cigar, and enjoy the show.

I am disappointed that states cannot bar insurrectionists from running for office. Congress may pass legislation, but they are ineffective. It is up to voters to save democracy in November.

Those involved in the violent protests should face consequences, particularly those who assaulted police officers. The actions on the Supreme Court side were unlawful, and those who trespassed should be held accountable. There’s no justification for the violence that occurred. Regarding pardons, Trump has stated he would consider cases individually, not universally. It's important to recognize that Ashley Babbitt was the only person who died on January 6th, and her presence was influenced by Trump's claims about a stolen election. The investigation into that day should have been thorough for transparency. The public deserves to see the full picture of what transpired.

We failed to act responsibly on January 6th. The lack of National Guard presence was a mistake. The former president and his supporters are trying to rewrite history, but we must not let them distort the truth of that day.

On election day, imagine heading to the polls while Donald Trump, convicted of felonies, won't be able to vote. If we deny reality as a party, we'll end up with four more years of Joe Biden. When my colleagues supported Trump even if he was a felon, they confirmed his lies to the American people. Timidity in taking on Trump will be sensed by others like Xi, Putin, the Ayatollah, border cruisers, and criminals in our streets, who will take advantage of this failure of leadership. We need to embrace the old American idea that every person, including the president, is responsible for their own conduct. As president, I will work for the people, earning their trust and votes. Thank you, governor.

I am deeply troubled by your responses today. You need to acknowledge that Donald Trump lost the 2020 election. You avoided answering that question when asked by Senator Durbin. Additionally, you should clearly state that those involved in the January 6th insurrection who committed violence should not be pardoned. I don’t have to say what you want me to say. I speak the truth and won’t say anything just to gain confirmation. I will answer questions to the best of my ability.

If the January 6 committee is legitimate, then members of Congress can't hide behind the speech and debate clause if they committed felonies by destroying or suppressing evidence. When Donald Trump wins the presidency, there should be a full investigation into those in Congress who aided this activity. We need to find out who was responsible, whether there was ill intent to suppress evidence from federal investigators, and hold them accountable. If the January 6 committee is legit, then it is subjected to federal statutes. The deep state has gotten away with things for too long, so we must defeat it to have real accountability, whether it's Democrat or Republican. Electing Donald Trump is the first step.

I was appalled by the violence and destruction in the Capitol. It was criminal behavior, domestic terrorism. They were not protesters, but a riotous mob. President Trump entertained conspiracy theories and only after hours of violence did he tell them to leave. We need to trust this committee's work and get the facts out. Officer Brian Sicknick died defending the capital, but there is surveillance footage of him walking inside after he was supposedly killed. Some in the crowd were racist and attacked people. These are Trump terrorists, and the Democrats, along with Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney, lied about what happened. They are liars.

I'm grateful to President Trump for pardoning individuals involved in the January 6th incident, especially since over 95% of Antifa and BLM rioters faced no consequences for their actions. The focus on January 6th is misplaced; people care more about border security, the economy, and foreign wars. The media's obsession with this event is seen as disconnected from the concerns of everyday Americans. While there were violent incidents during the January 6th riot, comparing them to serious crimes that Joe Biden has pardoned, like murder and assault, is not fair. It's time to move on and prioritize what truly matters to the public, rather than dwelling on past events.

I want to remind Americans of the violence unleashed by Donald Trump on January 6, 2021. As a former DC police officer, I responded to distress calls from fellow officers as a mob of Trump supporters violently assaulted law enforcement. I was brutally attacked, pulled from the police line, beaten, and had my badge and radio stripped away. I was also tased by a Trump supporter. These individuals, who admitted their support for Trump, represent the hundreds of officers assaulted that day. The lies about the 2020 election continue to inspire division and violence against fellow Americans and law enforcement. This election is about Trump’s vision for the presidency, serving only himself rather than the people. Thank you.

Regarding January 6th, there's a lot of potential for a non-biased discussion. Evidence has been deleted and destroyed, which many acknowledge. Dismissing this issue is problematic. If I were in a similar situation, I would accept responsibility. What has occurred is illegal.

The speaker states they have never promoted violence, but have also never excused violent actors, such as those involved in January 6th. The speaker suggests Pam Bondi should address terrorism with her boss regarding the release of January 6th participants.

If he wins again, his supporters will celebrate while many others feel threatened and scared for their lives. Pro-life women are suffering because doctors fear repercussions from his presidency. It's terrifying to witness such ignorance and hate in this country. How can anyone claim to have moral values and support someone who promotes hate and wants to pardon those who stormed the Capitol? If you care about women, LGBTQ individuals, or anyone who isn’t white, how did we get here? It feels like either he cheated or this country is deeply rooted in hate. If you voted for him, you are dead to me. Block me if you want; I don’t care.

Kash Patel is unqualified to be FBI director, having previously suggested shutting down FBI headquarters to open a museum for conspiracy theories. His rise reflects a troubling trend of rewarding sycophants. Regarding January 6 pardons, there’s deep concern about pardoning individuals who violently attacked police and tried to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power. This contradicts the public's desire for action against crime, not political revenge. As for potential prosecutions of January 6 committee members, there's pride in their oversight work, making preemptive pardons unnecessary. Setting a precedent for blanket pardons at the end of an administration is also undesirable. This message has been communicated to President Biden both publicly and privately.

If the January 6th committee is legitimate, then members of Congress cannot use the speech and debate clause to avoid accountability for felonies like destroying or suppressing evidence. If Donald Trump wins the presidency, there should be a thorough investigation into Congress members who facilitated criminal activities related to January 6th. We need to identify who was responsible and whether there was intent to obstruct federal investigations, as that constitutes a crime regardless of congressional status. The deep state has historically evaded accountability, but real change requires defeating it. Electing Donald Trump is a crucial step toward achieving that accountability.

I cannot support an insurrectionist. I would love to see Democrats and independents take a stand against Donald Trump.

I advocate daily for true justice regarding January 6th. We need to shift the narrative to focus on exoneration for the innocent and significant restitution for those affected. This is not just about pardons; it's about doing what is right and addressing the constitutional violations committed by the DOJ under Merrick Garland and Matthew Graves. Our nation must confront the reality of January 6th and the institutional problems that arose from it. This is a critical issue that requires our attention.

We need to differentiate between the pardons happening today. Joe Biden's pardons, particularly for those involved in January 6th, are distinct from others. Donald Trump ran on a platform of retribution, which is not constitutional. Pardoning his family is unfortunate and clouds his actions. The events of January 6th were unprecedented, and those pardoned undermined our constitution and the election process. Many people felt their lives were not better under Trump, leading them to elect Joe Biden. Therefore, we should categorize these pardons separately, as not all pardons are equal.

We need to distinguish between the pardons being issued today. Joe Biden's pardons, especially for those involved in the January 6th events, differ significantly from others. Donald Trump campaigned on a platform of retribution, which is not constitutional. While I am a Democrat and find it unfortunate that Trump pardoned his family, the pardons related to January 6th are particularly concerning. They reflect a disregard for the constitution and the electoral process, as many felt their lives were not improved under Trump. Therefore, we should categorize these pardons separately, as not all pardons hold the same weight or significance.
