The Double Standard: Laws ignored for pro-Hamas rioters who attacked Capitol police in D.C.

Total double standard.


Charges Dropped Against D.C. Rioters Who Assaulted Cops & Vandalized Property

Brittany M. Hughes | July 26, 2024

Turns out what’s good for the goose isn’t good for the gander, especially when it comes to criminal penalties for people who assault cops.

Charges have allegedly already been dropped against four individuals who were arrested for physically attacking Capitol police officers during the protests-turned-riots on Wednesday, where pro-Palestine aggressors gathered to throw a fit over Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s visit to Congress.

The four people – which reportedly included a 15-year-old – who were arrested for assaulting cops were among 23 total people arrested during the demonstrations for charges ranging from crossing police lines and disorderly conduct to assault and theft. At least seven people – arrested for things like assault on a police officer, attempted assault with a deadly weapon, making threats, and attempted second-degree theft – were released pending a court hearing scheduled for August, according to the Washington Examiner.

Julio Rosas, a journalist with The Blaze, reported on Thursday that police confirmed four of those arrested for assaulting police officers, including the teen, have had their charges dropped.

In addition to attacking police officers, pro-Hamas rioters also sprayed graffiti on several monuments and vandalized public property, including the Christopher Columbus statue and fountain near Union Station. Messages scrawled across walls in paint included the phrase “Hamas is coming.” The National Park Services estimated it will take days to clean up the mess – at taxpayer expense, of course. Protesters also burned American flags, ripping at least one from its pole and replacing it with a Palestinian flag.

Capitol Police Won’t Bring Charges After Two Men Recorded Themselves Having Sex In Senate Office Building

The U.S. Capitol police announced Thursday that they will not be bringing charges against the two men who recorded themselves having anal sex in the Hart Senate hearing room.

“For now, we are closing the investigation into the facts and circumstances surrounding a sex video that was recorded inside the Hart Senate Office Building on the morning of Wednesday, December 13. After consulting with federal and local prosecutors, as well as doing a comprehensive investigation and review of possible charges, it was determined that – despite a likely violation of Congressional policy – there is currently no evidence that a crime was committed,” U.S. Capitol Police said in a statement.

“Although the hearing room was not open to the public at the time, the Congressional staffer involved had access to the room. The two people of interest were not cooperative, nor were the elements of any of the possible crimes met. The Congressional staffer, who has since resigned from his job, exercised his Fifth Amendment right to remain silent and refused to talk to us. Our investigators are willing to review new evidence should any come to light,” the police continued.

A source identified the room to the Daily Caller as Senate room Hart 216, the Judiciary Room.

The Daily Caller reviewed the chat where the video leaked and confirmed it was shared in a private group for gay men in politics.

Whistleblower Reveals Capitol Police Botched Jan. 6 Response and Lied to Congress About It

The big ‘insurrection’ lie was part of Democrat crackdown in the post election fraud coup.

Whistleblower Claims Capitol Police Botched Jan. 6 Response and Lied to Congress About It

The allegations are HEAVY.

By: Andrew West, Flag and Cross, October 10, 2021:

Over the course of the next several months, we are going to learn quite a bit about the events of January 6th, but not everything that we hear is going to be taken at face value.

This is due to the fact that the select committee investigating the attempted insurrection has been largely seen as a partisan affair after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi barred certain members of the Republican Party from participating, forcing the GOP to rescind all of their picks.  Regardless of the merit of the endeavor, the phony left v. right paradigm is likely to taint the results.

But, outside of the committee’s work, there are truly worrisome revelations coming to light, and it could change the way that we view the event entirely.

A former high-ranking Capitol Police official with knowledge of the department’s response to the Jan. 6 attack has sent congressional leaders a scathing letter accusing two of its senior leaders of mishandling intelligence and failing to respond properly during the riot.

The accusations were heavy, to say the least.

The whistleblower, who requested anonymity for privacy reasons and left the force months after the attack, sent the 16-page letter late last month to the top members of both parties in the House and Senate. His missive makes scorching allegations against Sean Gallagher, the Capitol Police’s acting chief of uniformed operations, and Yogananda Pittman, its assistant chief of police for protective and intelligence operations — who also served as its former acting chief.

The whistleblower accuses Gallagher and Pittman of deliberately choosing not to help officers under attack on Jan. 6 and alleges that Pittman lied to Congress about an intelligence report Capitol Police received before that day’s riot. After a lengthy career in the department, the whistleblower was a senior official on duty on Jan. 6.

And that’s not all:

The whistleblower’s criticism went beyond Capitol Police leaders to Congress. Without naming specific lawmakers, his letter accuses congressional leaders of having “purposefully failed” to tell the truth about the department’s failures.

The January 6th select committee made other headlines this week as well, after seeing several of their subpoenas defied by former White House officials and Trump aides, with the former President instructing them to claim “executive privilege” in the matter.
