DC Police Defy Trump's Pardons, Refuse January 6 Releases Amid Cold Weather; U.S. Marshals Called
Jan 21, 2025, 05:34 AM
The DC police are reportedly refusing to release any more January 6 defendants from jail tonight, despite an executive order from President Trump granting them pardons. This action is seen as a direct defiance of the presidential directive. The situation has led to calls for intervention by the U.S. Marshals to enforce the releases. Some reports suggest that the refusal to release the prisoners is due to safety concerns related to the cold weather, with releases postponed until the morning. Inside the jail, there are 16 guards in the political prisoner block, and reports mention 17 armed guards allegedly pushing 8 prisoners back into their cells.
