    A Phony Insurrection Brings on a Real Purge

    https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2021/05/a_phony_insurrection_brings_on_a_real_purge.html

    "The top definition for "supremacist" in the trendy Urban Dictionary describes it as “once a term denoting racist beliefs, it has been taken by the Democratic party to mean anything or anyone not sharing Democratic party beliefs. It's basically a meaningless insult.” An insult it may be, but one that can easily be mishandled by military and federal law enforcement leaders to advance more sinister Democrat goals and strategies. If we continue to erase history and obstruct its lessons, it will be harder to recognize the real supremacists and extremists in today’s battle space as those who are casting the political aspersions and pointing fingers.​

    Meanwhile……..political prisoners continue to rot & die:

    November 05, 2021
    the most recent indignities inflicted on a political prisoner.

    Remember Abu Ghraib? So many tears, so much ink spilled over making Iraqi prisoners get on all fours naked.

    That same shit is going on right here in the US -- to US citizens, carried out by US government officials inflicting punishments on people their superiors have told them are "terrorists" deserving of special, extrajudicial cruelty.

    Our brave and noble journalist corps says not one fucking word.

    Immediately following an in-person meeting with his defense attorney, Robert Morss, a January 6 detainee held in part of the D.C. jail system used exclusively to incarcerate Capitol defendants, was subjected to a strip search where he was verbally and physically abused by prison guards.
    Morss, a former Army ranger with three tours of duty in Afghanistan, was arrested in June and later indicted on numerous counts including assaulting a police officer and disorderly conduct. (Morss is named in a multi-defendant case with others who battled police near the lower west terrace tunnel, where law enforcement officers from D.C. Metro and Capitol police were attacking protesters.) In July, Judge Trevor McFadden, a Trump appointee to the D.C. District Court, denied Morss' release pending trial.

    Morss met with his attorney, John C. Kiyonaga, in advance of a status hearing scheduled for Friday afternoon. After Morss returned to the so-called "pod," prison guards informed him he would need to be strip searched.

    By telephone from the jail Thursday afternoon, Morss told me this was the fifth time he has been subjected to a strip search, but this time, guards ordered him to remove his underwear. "There were five guards there including a few I didn't know," Morss told me. "I asked for literature that authorized the strip search and they refused to answer."

    A female guard with a cell phone repeatedly asked Morss if he was resisting the strip search. Morss said officers with the ERT -- he said it stands for Emergency Response Team-- then handcuffed him and put him in a "black room" with a chair. One prison guard, Corporal Armstrong, was present as well. "They shoved me around and maced me," Morss said. "When I opened my mouth, they pointed the can of mace toward my mouth."

    Morss' "humiliating" search included graphic details of a sexual nature. (American Greatness will not disclose these details to protect Morss' privacy.) "This was direct retaliation" for meeting with his lawyer, Morss told me.



    At least one judge knows this is going on -- officials have told him so.

    An inspection was ordered to determine if the prisoners were being humanely treated -- and guards warned them not to cooperate with the inspection.

    Again, an official admitted this.

    Lamberth met with officials from the U.S. Marshall's Service, the official custodian of January 6 defendants, last week for a briefing about conditions in the jail. One official told Lamberth that "staff members were observed antagonizing detainees, telling them not to cooperate with the (court-ordered) inspection." Lamberth told federal prosecutors on Wednesday that some of the conduct by prison employees resulted in "civil rights and probably criminal violations."
    I know a lot of people who cried tears over the mistreatment of Abu Ghraib terrorists are actually sexually aroused over the torture of the January 6th political prisoners, because, hey, these are real terrorists, unlike the Iraqi Baath bombers.

    Morss' lawyer will file another petition seeking relief.

    Lamberth ordered the immediate release of a different American Abu Ghraib inmate:

    Following an impromptu inspection of the D.C. jail, a federal judge has ordered the release of January 6 defendant, Christopher Worrell, over the mistreatment of detainees.
    The surprise inspection of the jail by U.S. Marshals took place last month, but the report from the inspection was not made public until Wednesday.

    Due to the findings, U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth said he has "'zero confidence that the D.C. jail' will provide the treatment correctly and not retaliate against Worrell," who has cancer, CNN reported Wednesday.

    Lamberth called the jail conditions "deplorable" and "beyond belief," ordering Worrell transferred immediately to another jail and then released home to start cancer treatment, the report outlined.



    Let me point out that these men are not being incarcerated after conviction. They have not been convicted. They are being held in jail pre-trial, supposedly because they are too dangerous to be allowed to be free before trial.

    So they are innocent men being held in prison.

    Convicted men are owed decent living conditions. Innocent men being held pre-trial are owed the same decent living conditions, if not more, because you can't even say "they deserve it." The "they deserve it" has not yet been tested in any court.

    But the media, NeverTrump, and Lindsey Graham -- Lindsey Graham, who demanded the Capitol Police produce some corpses to avenge his inconvenience -- say nothing publicly.

    Privately, they're delighted.

    The various NeverTrump and Conservative, Inc. outfits that claim they're all about Shoring Up the Pillars of American Democracy and Preserving Our National Decency will say nothingabout a judge finding that the conditions that political prisoners are being held in are "deplorable" and "beyond belief," or that Marshall's Department officials admit that staff is warning prisoners not to cooperate with required inspections.

    Because they're all about decency and the rule of law and civility and truth and honor.

    And not because they're acting out malice and evil vengeance and endless grievance because sometime in 2015 someone on Twitter called them "cucks" and hurt their fragile girlboy feelings.

    1. Last night we toured the DC jail.

    My staff and I are writing a full report this morning on our 3+ hour long tour.

    I�ve never seen human suffering like I witnessed last night.

    While some were shown to us in seemingly beneficial programs, others were in tortuous lockdown.


    2. Some inmates were receiving continuing education classes, others were truly suffering from long stays in solitary confinement for "bad behavior."

    I'll never forget hearing their screams.

    This was in a different part of the jail, not the J6 part.

    Being alone surely is hell.

    3. At what seemed the end of our tour as we were being led toward the exit, we had not seen the J6 defendants yet.

    I asked to see them & was told it was not part of my tour.

    I demanded to see them and would have gone scorched earth if I was not allowed and was making it known.

    4. Phone calls were made & permission was given.

    We then were taken to another section of the jail and entered the Patriot wing.

    I was greeted by men with overwhelming cheers who rushed out to meet me with tears streaming down their faces.

    They have felt forgotten & hopeless.

    5. It was like walking into a prisoner of war camp and seeing men who eyes can�t believe someone had made it in to see them.

    They are suffering greatly.

    Virtually no medical care, very poor food quality, and being put through re-education which most of them are rejecting.

    6. Our detailed report will outline everything we saw in every area of the jail we were allowed to see, on behalf of all inmates.


    7. I am committed to ending this political war and seeing that our justice system is never used against Americans as a political weapon ever again.

    I am also beginning a plan for real prison reform.

    Our nation is broken and our people are divided.

    It's time to fix it.

    That is one of the saddest things I have ever read in my life.

    Those in charge of that place deserve the punishment of Haman.
