(DailyEmailNews.com) – Drawing a firm line on Capitol riot pardons, Vice President-elect JD Vance boldly defends justice for peaceful January 6 protesters while standing firm against violent offenders.
Watch the video down below.
Vance argues that peaceful January 6 protesters unfairly prosecuted should be pardoned while violent participants receive no clemency.
His stance aligns with President-elect Donald Trump’s promise to address the unfair treatment of patriots by Merrick Garland’s Department of Justice.
“Most likely, I’ll do it very quickly,” Trump said, referring to his plans to issue pardons.
In a recent appearance on “Fox News Sunday,” Vance made it clear that the incoming administration will draw a line between those who exercised their constitutional right to protest and those who crossed it.
“If you protested peacefully on January the 6th, and you’ve had Merrick Garland’s Department of Justice treat you like a gang member, you should be pardoned,” Vance stated firmly.
This stance resonates with those who have long argued that the DOJ’s approach to January 6 cases has been heavy-handed and politically motivated.
With over 1,500 people charged and nearly 1,300 convictions related to the Capitol events, the need for a fair review of these cases is more pressing than ever.
Vance’s commitment to justice doesn’t stop at pardons for peaceful protesters. He emphasized, “If you committed violence on that day, obviously you shouldn’t be pardoned.”
This balanced approach seeks to uphold law and order while acknowledging the constitutional rights of American citizens to assemble and petition their government peacefully.
The incoming administration’s stance on January 6 pardons is not just about correcting past injustices.
It is a clear message to the American people that their rights will be protected and that the government will not be used as a weapon against its own citizens for political purposes.
While the mainstream media and leftist politicians continue to paint all January 6 participants with the same broad brush, Vance and Trump are committed to a just approach.
This commitment to fairness and individual assessment of cases stands in contrast to the current administration’s blanket persecution of conservative protesters.
As the Trump-Vance administration prepares to take office, Americans can look forward to a government that respects their rights, upholds the law and is not afraid to correct past injustices.
