For the record, I fully support blanket pardons for all who have been (or could be) convicted over their actions surrounding January 6, 2021. Now that it is crystal clear nefarious actors in and outside of our government instigated the escalation of events at the Capitol Building, there should be no differentiation between the “peaceful” and “unpeaceful” protesters who were making their voices heard that day.
John Strand seems to agree for the most part. The former political prisoner who is still getting hounded over his actions on January 6 posted on 𝕏 on Sunday declaring that we need to stop referring to some of the protesters as “non-violent.”
As he noted:
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT:
Please, if you truly care about truth, justice, and the plight of innocent J6 defendants unjustly suffering unspeakable horrors,
STOP SAYING “NON-VIOLENT”
Allow me to explain: the Merrick Garland/Matthew Graves DOJ is corrupt—they lied, manipulated evidence, and conducted an enormous fraud to falsely smear many protesters as “violent” when those protesters had no such intention.
⚠️ *MOST* of the “violence” alleged by the DOJ is either bogus, and/or self-defensive reactions to conflict that was initiated and exacerbated by police brutality and the government’s truly violent abuse of use-of-force protocols—they killed four unarmed protesters that day alone, for starters.
There *will* be legitimate criteria for determining who was a bad faith actor, necessitating further legal scrutiny in the course of granting a proclamation-style “Pardon of Innocence”…but the assertion of “violence” is irredeemably tainted, and it does not honestly apply to the vast majority of J6 defendants.
This is not a small point—it is CRUCIAL to navigating the path through a deadly swamp of DOJ corruption in order to reach true justice.
We MUST carefully articulate this in the course of achieving EXONERATION for those truly innocent J6 victims, which they deserve and which our nation must deliver.

The vast majority in attendance at the rally in Washington DC on January 6, 2021, were there to express their concerns over an election that was clearly fraudulent. They were doing their duty to defend the Constitution and were calling on lawmakers to make a horrible situation right.
By no means am I defending every action taken by everyone at the event. Some clearly took their protests too far. But the hammer of justice was lowered on as many of them as the corrupt Department of Justice and our activist judiciary could wrangle. The event should be classified as a false flag to entrap as many passionate Trump supporters as possible.
This is why it should be a blanket pardon. It seems very likely that if the Deep State psyop that was orchestrated that day had not occurred, the entire event would have remained peaceful. Even the few who took it too far would have been restrained by the other legitimate protesters.
As M. Dowling noted at Independent Sentinel:
President-elect Donald Trump said he is looking to issue pardons to his supporters involved in the attacks on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 as soon as his first day in office, saying those incarcerated are “living in hell.”
Trump’s comments, the most sweeping he’s made since winning the 2024 election, came during an exclusive interview with “Meet the Press” moderator Kristen Welker.
The event was designed to not only entrap protesters but to act as an example to those who would engage in their constitutional right to protest in the future. That alone should be the righteous sentiment that expedites pardons for all who were involved.
It’s becoming increasingly clear that fiat currencies across the globe, including the U.S. Dollar, are under attack. Paper money is losing its value, translating into insane inflation and less value in our life’s savings.

Whether Central Bank Digital Currencies replace current fiat currencies or not, precious metals are poised to retain or even increase in value.
