Looks like many of the Jan 6 so-called patriots have criminal records.
Criminal records of Jan 6 rioters include rape, domestic violence https://www.npr.org/2025/01/30/nx-s1-5276336/donald-trump-jan-6-rape-assault-pardons-rioters |

Gee I thought Republicans were opposed to releasing violent criminals on the streets of America. What the hell, GOP? Why did you let this happen? |

There was a great daily show clip where Trump told Hannity other countries were releasing prisoners to the streets of America (which is nonsense) and the host is like— that’s exactly what you did! |

Hardly anybody got sentences of 5 years and those that did were convicted of violently attacking law enforcement. For example—
Michael Steven Perkins, 40, of Plant City, Florida, was sentenced to 48 months in prison and 36 months of supervised release. He was found guilty of, among other charges, assaulting a federal officer with a deadly or dangerous weapon and civil disorder Salvador Sandoval, Jr., 26, of Ankeny, Iowa, was sentenced to 88 months in prison, 36 months of supervised release, and ordered to pay $2,000. He was found guilty of four counts of assaulting Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officers, one count of obstruction of an official proceeding and one count of civil disorder. Thomas F. Sibick, 37, of Buffalo, New York, was sentenced to 50 months in prison, 36 months of supervised release, and ordered to pay $7,500.79. Sibick pleaded guilty to one felony count of assaulting, resisting, or impeding certain officers and one misdemeanor count of theft. Christopher Michael Alberts, 35, of Pylesville, Maryland, was sentenced to 84 months in prison after being convicted of nine charges—including six felonies—as well as 36 months of supervised release and ordered to pay $2,000. Audrey Ann Southard-Rumsey, 54, of Spring Hill, Florida, was sentenced to 72 months in prison after she was found guilty of seven felony charges, including three counts of assaulting officers. She was also given 36 months of supervised release and ordered to pay $2,000. Kevin James Lyons, 40, of Chicago, Illinois, was sentenced to 51 months in prison after being convicted of six charges, including one felony and five misdemeanors. He was also given 36 months of supervised release and ordered to pay $2,000.

| The tweets are contradictory. Did DOJ support the pardon, or oppose the pardon? |

I guess they support the first pardon because it was for crimes committed before the pardon occurred, while the second guy committed additional crimes afterward. Because a pardon is not a lifetime get-out-of-jail-free card. |

Oh look, the violent criminals Trump released are committing more crimes:
“ A Northern Virginia man who was pardoned by President Donald Trump for his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack has been arrested in connection with a home invasion less than four months after his release. Zachary Jordan Alam, 33, of Centreville, was arrested May 9 after allegedly breaking into a home in Henrico County and stealing personal items, police said.” https://www.wusa9.com/article/news/national/capitol-riots/january-6-capitol-riot-zachary-alam-donald-trump-pardon/65-18b573a8-b4c3-4072-9493-67cb405fc2a1 |
