Some wonder why President Donald Trump offered pardons or commutations to January 6 rioters. It has everything to do with equal justice.
Robert Morss speaks with press after being released last night after his sentence of 66 months was pardoned on January 21, 2025 at the DC Central Detention Facility in Washington, DC.
Critics of Trump’s pardons and conservative defenses of some Jan. 6 defendants often fail — or refuse — to understand the reasoning behind these actions. But the explanation is both simple and important.Conservative frustration over the treatment of some Jan. 6 defendants stems from the blatant double standard in how justice is applied.
After months of left-wing violence in the name of Black Lives Matter — where people were murdered, cops were assaulted, buildings burned to the ground and businesses looted — the Biden administration, Democrats and left-wing media outlets remained largely silent. Looters weren’t prosecuted; many were released without charges. Vandals were ignored, and those who committed assaults were either let go or never pursued in the first place.
I documented this chaos in a book filled with my experiences covering the violence, detailing the destruction these groups wrought across the Pacific Northwest. But instead of acknowledging the truth, the Left told the nation that none of it was happening. It was gaslighting on a national scale, designed to protect their narrative and shield their allies from accountability.Why is it that anyone remotely associated with the Jan.
Jan. 6 rioters faced jail time, had their lives upended, and were relentlessly smeared. Many, rightly so. Meanwhile, Antifa thugs and BLM radicals were celebrated as heroes, and most never even saw the inside of a courtroom. All political violence deserves to be treated with equal seriousness. Until that happens, we’ll continue to see hyper-targeting of suspects based on their political leanings, followed by partisan pardons and commutations.
