Mike Lee confirms despite Trump’s pardon, many J6 prisoners remain in jail

Mike Lee confirms despite Trump’s pardon, many J6 prisoners remain in jail

Well before Donald Trump’s long-awaited inauguration, he told us of his plans to pardon nonviolent January 6 prisoners who were victims of a weaponized justice department.

Yesterday, he kept that promise and pardoned 1,500 people.

However, it looks as if only two of those individuals have actually been released from D.C. prisons.

Glenn Beck spoke with Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) about this apparent resistance to Trump’s orders.

According to Sen. Lee, it’s true.

Glenn reads a recent tweet from Lee:

“Tell me what this means,” he says.

“What this means is that Congress needs to do its job. We’ve had a problem for a long time with Congress delegating its lawmaking power to unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats,” says Sen. Lee. “We’re supposed to be the lawmaker for the District of Columbia. … We’ve been delegating that power to the D.C. government for about a half century. The results have been disastrous.”

“Last night, from what we can tell, after Trump issued pardons for a number of prisoners involved with January 6, there were only two released last night,” he tells Glenn, adding that the D.C. jail officials actually “announced that they wouldn’t be releasing any more.”

Such an act of defiance is unacceptable, says Sen. Lee.

“They have names, and they have pardons. They can identify those prisoners who have been pardoned,” he condemns.

Trump was clear — these prisoners were to be “released immediately,” so why haven’t they been?

Sen. Lee says they’re working on figuring out what exactly is causing the delay, but one thing is abundantly clear: “It’s yet another reason to revisit D.C.’s Home Rule.”

Sen. Lee aims to have it repealed entirely.
