[Hoot Gibson]

An earlier post that I made about the Oath Keepers was deleted. After researching the group, I realized that I had confused then with another Christian Men's group, the Promise Keepers. The Promise Keepers are not a right wing militia group. 

As for the Oath Keepers and the Proud Boys, because I understand how the FBI and other federal law enforcement agencies correct confessions and guilty pleas, I am skeptical about most of the allegations against them, but I'm not knowledgeable enough about the groups to defend them. 

Had the J6 select committee not destroyed evidence, and had Joe Biden not pardoned all of the criminals on the committee, we might have learned the truth about the roles that groups like the Oath Keepers, Proud Boys, and the FBI played in the events of J6.

That claim has been shot down many times.

"I spoke with officer Harry Dunn at the top of the program. I spoke with the ex-wife of [Oath Keepers founder] Stewart Rhodes, Tasha Adams. They are both worried about their safety," Acosta said. "Do you defend what Donald Trump did, releasing these people from prison, pardoning them, commuting their sentences? Yes or no?"

"Congressman, I asked you a yes-or-no question," Acosta interjected. "Do you agree with President Trump's decision to pardon these violent people and releasing them from jail?"

"If they were truly violent, no, but do I know that they were? I don't know that," Burchett responded.

"What do you mean you don't know that? We're showing the footage on the air right now," Acosta said, as video played from the insurrection showing Trump supporters brawling with law enforcement on the Capitol grounds. "Congressman, you were there that day. There are offenders on January 6 who violently beat police officers. There are offenders who are convicted of seditious conspiracy. That is the truth."

No, the claim has not been shot down. The criminals who Biden pardoned deny destiny evidence. They have no credibility. Thanks to Biden's pardons, they will also have no accountability.

As for those who Trump has granted clemency, most have served several years behind bars and their crimes pale in comparison to those who Biden has pardoned, including his family and the J6 committee members and the will never serve a day in jail. I have zero problems with the pardons and commutations Trump has granted to Biden's political prisoners.
