As Congress cheered the certification of Donald Trump and JD Vance’s election win, Jan. 6 prisoners and allies were joining together to ask the president-elect to give them justice.
At an event on Jan. 6 in Washington, D.C., J6ers who have been or are still unjustly imprisoned (in the case of Jake Lang, for years in solitary confinement without trial) spoke out in person or by video. They were joined by attorneys who take the J6 cases to court and multiple media and business figures. Themes at the event included requests to incoming President Trump for pardons for all J6ers, no exceptions; admiration for the Founders and thus horror at violations of Constitutional rights; and demands for accountability. Joe Biden pardoned or commuted sentences for 1500+ criminals including sexual offenders, murderers, and Chinese spies (not to mention his own son), yet some J6ers have received sentences of decades in prison.
Online influencer George (@BehizyTweets) was one of multiple speakers and panelists who praised all those who have in ways large and small stood up for rule of law amidst Biden-Harris weaponization of lawfare. “I hope posterity looks down on everyone in this room with extreme satisfaction,” he said.
Lawyer and podcast host Viva Frei emphasized how serious the relentless Democrat campaign against all Jan. 6 protestors has been while hundreds of truly violent, pro-terrorist leftist activists went free. The aim was “to persecute and prosecute your political rivals, to discredit them, to turn them into domestic terrorists, to weaponize the justice system against half of America.” MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell agreed: “evil had a back up plan, and that back up plan was Jan. 6,” he insisted.

J6 activist Suzzanne Monk insisted that the community’s aims for pardons are in line with the views of the Founding Fathers, who in their day were vilified by opponents as violent, dangerous traitors for defending their rights. “We continue to need the Founders’ vision of this country, and we need to continue to implement it, because the Founders knew that there was actually one more [ruling] branch, one more group of people that were going to be critical to … the checks and balance, and that is We the People,” she emphasized. Some Jan. 6 were charged with “violence” in defending themselves from Capitol police brutality, which killed Ashli Babbitt and Rosanne Boyland. […]

Independent Journalism Is Dying
Ever since President Trump’s miraculous victory, we’ve heard an incessant drumbeat about how legacy media is dying. This is true. The people have awakened to the reality that they’re being lied to by the self-proclaimed “Arbiters of Truth” for the sake of political expediency, corporate self-protection, and globalist ambitions.
But even as independent journalism rises to fill the void left by legacy media, there is still a huge challenge. Those at the top of independent media like Joe Rogan, Dan Bongino, and Tucker Carlson are thriving and rightly so. They have earned their audience and the financial rewards that come from it. They’ve taken risks and worked hard to get to where they are.
For “the rest of us,” legacy media and their proxies are making it exceptionally difficult to survive, let alone thrive. They still have a stranglehold over the “fact checkers” who have a dramatic impact on readership and viewership. YouTube, Facebook, and Google still stifle us. The freer speech platforms like Rumble and 𝕏 can only reward so many of their popular content creators. For independent journalists on the outside looking in, our only recourse is to rely on affiliates and sponsors.
But even as it seems nearly impossible to make a living, there are blessings that should not be disregarded. By highlighting strong sponsors who share our America First worldview, we have been able to make lifelong connections and even a bit of revenue to help us along. This is why we enjoy symbiotic relationships with companies like MyPillow, Jase Medical, and Promised Grounds. We help them with our recommendations and they reward us with money when our audience buys from them.
The same can be said about our preparedness sponsor, Prepper All-Naturals. Their long-term storage beef has a 25-year shelf life and is made with one ingredient: All-American Beef.
Even our faith-driven precious metals sponsor helps us tremendously while also helping Americans protect their life’s savings. We are blessed to work with them.
Independent media is the future. In many ways, that future is already here. While the phrase, “the more the merrier,” does not apply to this business because there are still some bad actors in the independent media field, there are many great ones that do not get nearly enough attention. We hope to change that one content creator at a time.
Thank you and God Bless,
JD Rucker
