On December 7, 2021 a GOP News Conference detailed a report
of the January 6 Peaceful Protestors (except for the incitement by Capitol
Police and FBI
plants) scooped up and placed in jail without charges and still
detained in OUTRAGEOUS conditions. Criminals that have been charged in the same
jail receive better conditions and Guard treatment.
Four Republican Representatives presided at the News
Conference led by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene with other three being Gohmert,
Gaetz and Gosar.
We
The People Convention reports the details of the News Conference
including a video link to C-Span and a PDF link to the GOP expose report on the
treatment of Patriots never-charged for protesting on January 6 yet
incarcerated in horrible conditions, often physically abused, denied practicing
their religious faith and endure Marxist-style reeducation.
Lacking trust in anything to do with MSM dissemination of
actual news, I uploaded an mp4-version of the C-SPAN video to my Bitchute

Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and others in
the GOP on Tuesday blasted the treatment of “political prisoners” who took part
in the Jan. 6 “Stop the Steal” rally.
Currently, some who entered the Capitol building on Jan. 6 are being held in
the D.C. jail in conditions that Greene described as “unusually cruel.”
Greene listed a slew of examples of this treatment.
According to Greene, Jan. 6 prisoners held in the D.C. jail have been beaten
by guards and prison staff, have been unable to speak with their attorneys,
have been denied haircuts or razors to shave, and have not been given proper
medical treatment when they needed it, among many other examples.
Greene noted another peculiarity of the Jan. 6 defendants:
Usually, Greene says, members of Congress have no problem in gaining access to
jails when they make the request. In this case, however, Deputy Warden Kathleen
Landerkin denied Greene and her coalition access to the facilities on several
occasions before finally allowing access to the representatives.
“In fact, [Landerkin] locked us out before,” said Greene, adding, “It’s clear
that there was a lot to hide.”
Greene contrasted the treatment of these Jan. 6 prisoners with the treatment of
those who took part in the Black Lives Matter (BLM) riots that tore across the
country in the summer of 2020.
“Approximately 6 percent of [the nationwide BLM protests]
were violent,” Greene said, judging that in total that equated to around 570
violent riots.
“But here’s the deal,” Greene continued, “there was only one riot that took
place here at the Capitol.”
Compared to the treatment of Jan. 6 defendants, Greene argued, the treatment of
BLM rioters was exceedingly lenient.
“Approximately 90 percent of BLM and Antifa rioters have been released from
jail and their charges have been dropped,” Greene said, despite the 2020 riots
causing “over $2 billion in damage.” The damages caused by the Capitol
breach were approximately $1.5 million, Greene said by way of comparison.
“We have a two-tiered justice system in this country,” Greene said.
Greene then turned to the thrust of her speech, addressing the treatment of
Jan. 6 prisoners.
“What’s happening to these people being held in custody is wrong, it’s
unconstitutional, it’s a violation of their rights, and it is an abuse that I
call on every member of Congress to pay attention to,” she said.
The D.C. jail, Greene said, has been known as “a despicable place” since the
1970s, and she noted a decision from a U.S. District Judge who ruled that the
prevailing conditions in the jail violate the 8th Amendment ban on cruel and
unusual punishment.

new website called www.j6truth.org where they are posting some of
their own videos of the event - Click Here to take a look!
Little has changed since this decision, Greene said, citing a 2015 report that
found that the jail was “plagued by mold, vermin, and water
leaks.” More recently, Greene added, the U.S. Marshall Service in 2021
found the jail to be “inhospitable.”
Despite the well-documented problems with the building, the Jan. 6 defendants
have been forced to reside in the jail for months on end.
“But the January 6 defendants are being treated differently
on a whole other level,” Greene said. “They have been beaten by the guards,
they are called ‘white supremacists,’ they are denied religious services,
haircuts, shaving, the ability to trim their fingernails.”
Greene continued, “They’re denied time with their attorney, they are denied the
ability to even see their families and have their families visit there, they’re
denied bail and are being held there without bail.”
“Many of these people have never been charged with a crime before,” Greene
said. “Some of them are veterans.” (Click

Regime for Jan 6th Crimes)
Aside from all these alleged violations of their liberty, Greene reported, the
defendants “have been told that they have to denounce President Donald Trump”
and “that their views are the views of cult members.”
In sum, Greene ruled, the Jan. 6 defendants have been treated “worse than we
treat terrorists in Gitmo [Guantanamo Bay].”

“I completely disagree [with] and am against the violence that happened on Jan.
6 at the Capitol,” Greene said, but argued “we should all, all disagree with
how these people are being treated. This is completely unacceptable, and as
Americans this should go beyond political boundaries.”
“We never want those in power to be able to wield their power against those
they disagree with,” Greene continued, “Especially in a time where we saw
political riots all over the country and the people that committed those riots
… not only [have] most of them been let off their charges, but many of them
were never mistreated like this.”
Democrats and others in positions of power, including failed Supreme Court
Justice nominee-turned-Attorney General Merrick Garland, have said that the
events that took place on Jan. 6 were an act of “insurrection,” but according
to GOP speakers today, not a single Jan. 6 detainee has been charged with insurrection.
The allegations listed by Greene are only the tip of the iceberg on alleged
mistreatment of those who took part in the Capitol rally. Greene and her
colleagues have released
a complete report titled “Unusually Cruel: An Eyewitness Report from Inside the
D.C. Jail” that details other instances of mistreatment of
Jan. 6 defendants (pdf
here).
The media representative for the D.C. Department of Corrections did not respond
immediately for a request for comment on Greene’s allegations.
