President Trump, in his first post-election interview with NBC, told combative liberal hack reporter Kirsten Welker that “everybody” on the Congressional January 6 Committee “should go to jail.”
The Gateway Pundit reported on Welker’s hostile interview with Trump, where he schooled her on the 2020 election, spoke about his tariff agenda, vowed to “on day one” pardon the abused J6 prisoners, destroyed FBI Director Christopher Wray, and gave a sneak peek on his Inaugural address and day one Executive orders.
Trump’s statements about the Congressional J6 hoaxers come as Joe Biden is reportedly considering preemptive pardons for the Congress members who aided his attempted election interference and criminal charges against Trump. Now that the Democrats are no longer in power, it’s all of a sudden not good to target political opponents with prosecution– even for legitimate charges!
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Trump posted on his Truth Social platform that the sham committee overseeing the investigation of the January 6 Capitol protest destroyed their documents and records illegally.
It was later revealed that the J6 Committee secretly deleted over 100 potentially critical pieces of evidence right before the GOP was set to take over the House of Representatives after their narrow 2022 win. A total of 117 encrypted files were deleted by the corrupt committee on Jan. 1, 2023.
This is criminal!
Perhaps the most notable of the absurd and easily debunked allegations about Trump included ‘star witness’ Cassidy Hutchinson’s claim that Trump tried to grab the steering wheel from Secret Service agents and commandeer the limo on January 6. The driver of Trump’s motorcade (the beast) refuted Hutchinson’s under-oath claims that Trump grabbed the steering wheel and physically assaulted a Secret Service agent.
The J6 committee also deleted or destroyed several testimonies, including the testimony and video of the top Secret Service official from the Trump administration, Robert Engel. The footage would likely exonerate President Trump.
President Trump has responded to the J6 Committee’s coverup several while campaigning for President, once saying on Truth Social in 2023, “They should be prosecuted for their lies and, quite frankly, TREASON!”
He further slammed the liars on the J6 Committee while delivering remarks during rally appearances. During one rally in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, earlier this year, Trump again stated, “They should be indicted for that. They destroyed evidence.” He continued, “You know why? Because the evidence showed that we were innocent. The evidence showed that Nancy Pelosi should have had protection at the Capitol that I offered here, and they turned it down.”
He further mocked their claims that Trump attacked a Secret Service agent, saying, “It was all bullsh*t.”
NBC reports that RINO former Congresswoman Liz Cheney, her comrade Democrat Senator-elect Adam Schiff, others on the J6 Committee, and Anthony Fauci are among those who are rumored to be considered for pardons.
President Joe Biden and his senior aides are discussing the idea of issuing pre-emptive pardons for people President-elect Donald Trump has scorned in recent years as he has hinted about plans for retribution, two sources familiar with the discussions confirmed.
While the discussions have included certain names, including Senator-elect Adam Schiff, D-Calif., Dr. Anthony Fauci and former Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., the process hasn’t progressed to the point of consensus on an actual list, sources said.
Some Democrats and “Never Trump” Republicans have supported the notion of pre-emptive pardons to protect people under a new Trump presidency.
This comes after Biden issued a full and preemptive pardon to his son, Hunter Biden, absolving him of his convictions for gun charges, tax offenses, and any potential charges for federal crimes committed between 2014 and 2024.
President Trump had this to say about the J6 Committee in his interview with Kirsten Welker on Sunday:
Trump: And Cheney was behind it and so was Bennie Thompson and everybody on that committee, for what they did, honestly, they should go to jail.
Welker: So you think Liz Cheney should go to jail?
Trump: For what they did, I think everybody— anybody that voted in favor…
Welker: Are you going to direct your FBI director and your attorney general to send them to jail?
Trump: No, not at all. I think that they’ll have to look at that, but I’m not going to— I’m going to focus on drill, baby, drill.
