One of the more “insurrectiony” things that those Americans arrested and persecuted by Joe Biden’s Department of Justice over the J6 protests did was that they sang and recorded, while they were gathered together in a jail, the National Anthem.
President Donald Trump joined in what eventually was a fundraiser for prisoners accused of offenses like trespassing by recording the Pledge of Allegiance.
And for that, authoritarians embedded in the Biden administration wanted criminal charges filed.
It was a commentary at PJMedia that reflected on the revelations documented by Democrat emails.
“Democrats have spent months theatrically clutching their pearls over President Trump’s supposed authoritarianism, and the past week reveling in their self-righteous ‘No Kings’ protests. But now, bombshell internal FBI emails have pulled back the curtain, catapulting their own authoritarian behavior into full view,” it said.
“Rogue agents and prosecutors in Joe Biden’s Department of Justice were apparently so desperate to bury Donald Trump under new criminal charges that they zeroed in on — wait for it — his involvement with the J6 prisoner choir. Yes, you read that right: the choir. The effort was based on a single, laughably partisan Forbes article. This is peak Democrat hypocrisy, folks.”
It was columnist Miranda Devine who reported in the New York Post on the emails.
She explained they exposed the “Biden DOJ’s obsession with piling on Trump charges.”
“Internal FBI emails reveal that rogue agents and prosecutors in the Biden DOJ were looking for ways to pile on new criminal charges against Donald Trump over the Jan. 6 Capitol riot — this time over his involvement with the J6 prisoner choir, based on a single partisan news article,” she explained “The 2023 emails obtained by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) and revealed exclusively to The Post are an example of the nitpicking malice of anti-Trump lawfare that tainted special counsel Jack Smith’s investigation, during Joe Biden’s presidency.”
It was an email from PJ Cooney to others in the DOJ that demanded, “Can we do some work to nail down Trump’s role in this.”
Attached was a Forbes.com article claiming “Trump collaborates on Song with Jan. 6 Defendants.”
In fact, a video posted on social media shows men in jail “singing the national anthem at the DC jail in 2023.”
The report revealed Cooney collaborated with “both the Robert Mueller and Smith get-Trump special counsel investigations.”
The Forbes piece claimed Trump recorded the Pledge of Allegiance as part of the project.
Cooney’s demands went to multiple agents and DOJ staff, “including notorious anti-Trump FBI Special Agent Walter Giardina, who responded two days later to say he was investigating the claims…”
Giardina also was “significantly involved in Operation Crossfire Hurricane,” which involved debunked claims about Russian collusion.
“According to Grassley, Giardina was an ‘initial recipient of the Steele Dossier’ and falsely claimed that the bogus Clinton campaign smear sheet against Trump was corroborated as ‘true.’ Giardina also ‘electronically wiped the laptop he was assigned while working for Special Counsel Mueller outside of established protocol for record preservation, raising the possibility that he destroyed government records,’” the report said.
Grassley now considers this specific email chain as a clear example of how the federal government was weaponized to “get Trump.”
He told the Post, “Partisan prosecutors and agents were surfing the web to find any shred of information they could use to spin another baseless case against Trump. Their actions are a disservice to Americans, who pay their salaries and depend on DOJ and FBI to keep them safe.”
The commentary at PJMedia noted the emails “Reveal the depths of anti-Trump lawfare that festered under Biden’s watch. Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigation, already an icon of politicized justice, was tainted by this nitpicking malice.”
It continued, “Because nothing screams ‘threat to democracy’ like a song collaboration, right?”
“Let’s unpack this steaming load of hypocrisy. While Democrats scream about Trump’s supposed dictatorial tendencies, Biden’s own DOJ was scheming to criminalize his every move — even something as trivial as associating with a choir,” it said.
