It’s difficult to read this. Seeing the videos of police leading them into the building and simply walking around. It’s sad to see she is “guilty” of some kind of “crime” while thousands of others violently protest and burn small businesses with no repercussions to their actions.

Mass protest in the US Capital is only ok if you’re a purple hair gender confused drone protesting for abortion or against conservative Supreme Court justice nominees. The only mistake this lady made was putting her life on the line for this inherently corrupt Surveillance State that masquerades as a representative democracy. America is Mystery Babylon as described in Revelation 17-18.

This makes me stomach hurt and my heartbreak.

Especially with the “protests” currently happening and none of those assholes will be charged with anything.

Sickening. Absolutely disgraceful.

She did not break and enter. Those doors were open for a reason. To entrap whoever entered. I pray she’s not sentenced to jail.

This woman wasn't breaking any laws. They were escorted by police. It's entrapment. It's typical, nothing new about this going back to the 60's. If you want to put the people of the US first, then you are a suspect in the eyes of the provocateur government. Welcome to America, ma'am. You have my support. This is representative of the general trend across the board. The "right and left" in DC are working together to take away all of our rights. These are the kinds of decisions that are happening all across the spectrum. Congress is making it illegal to witness ethnic cleansing by Israel, the police are calling students terrorists, the liberals are calling them antisemitic, the right-wingers are calling them communists. All three are covering up a genocide together.

I thought the Capitol was the people's building. God bless this woman for standing up for what many of us believe in. I hope her story wakes more people up. When you see innocent, peaceful protesters arrested, and violent protesters still walking the streets, you have to believe something is not right.

Entrapment? She willfully entered the Capitol building shouting “it’s our house”…. I mean cmon! Ask Mike Pence what he thought of all of it! Ask the police officers who testified about this day! Nice one sided convo.. keep up the “unbiased” reporting 🙄

Do you not see the very clear bias in our media? Please show us where any of the people arrested for J6 have had their side of the story told on a main cable network? Why do you feel she needs to report on the other side of J6 when MSM blasted that story and narrative for everyone to hear? The point of her articles is to hear from people that MSM won’t cover because of MSM’s very clear bias.

I watched trials on CSPAN, not CNN, not Fox. I am just saying if she considers this reporting, she should report all sides.

Not ONE J6 defendant trial has EVER been televised. You watched Biased Coverage of the J6 committed which found Trump not guilty of any criminal conspiracy , no evidence of insurrection, and then destroyed millions of documents they were duty bound to preserve. The Weaponization committee has been investigating & exposing the bias and the criminality of their “committee”.

But you never watched a single J6 defendant trial- because cameras have never been allowed in a single case.

I watched when the police officers testified in front of Congress about the insurrection - so you can stop it with the nastiness. Let me guess that was all a farce? 😑

Where is the bias? I am just seeing this as a presentation of a citizen's point of view of what happened to her. I am sure if anyone else wants to give their story to Jessica to write about- she would.

Expand full comment

Usually the bias comes from reporting one side of the story and not getting all the angles. I have seen videos of her entering u lawfully shouting “it’s our house”. They wanted hang the Vice President. A police officer was killed. Clearly there are other folks that would speak to this or if you are doing real reporting, you seek out the full story. Have you heard the saying there are three sides to the truth/story? Yours, mine and the middle.

The doors were open. They did not break and enter.

No police officers were killed that day.

One officer died of a stroke a day later. The coroner said it was unrelated. His family agrees.

One person was killed by a police office. A female, Ashley Babbitt who was a unarmed military veteran. There is much controversy on how she was killed. Unarmed. Now that's suspect. Did you hear that part of the story?

Did you watch The Real Jan6 documentary on Epoch Times? That's an indepth look at the events leading up to the day and what happened on that day.

Capitol officers saying they were set up.

Tucker Carlson interviewed the head of the Capitol police and he shared his side of the story. He corroborated that the crowd had undercover FBI agents dressed as MAGA inciting the crowd. And further that they were also in the Capitol building ushering in the crowd. That's entrapment.

The crowd was rightfully pissed after the year of lockdowns and then the stolen election. The government created a perfect storm to entrap people and make examples of people so that no one would ever fight back in the future.

So obvious to any non-brainwashed NPC.

Roseanne Boyland was beaten by the cops and crushed under the crowd being pushed by the cops and then not administered proper care and died. And then they lied and said it was an Adderall overdose, which was a lie. She had a prescription for Adderall. She took it every day. She did not die of an overdose of Adderall. If you watch the video, you know how she died.

I have, however, when you are saying it is unbiased reporting- are you referring to Jessica? That is what it seems and I do believe she is just sharing this woman's journey as she would any other person given the opportunity. I see some commenters making biased comments, but I don't see "reporting" here. Just stories about people. Maybe Jessica is "biased" in choosing who she writes about, but I doubt any democrats are asking for her to share their stories.

I will say I appreciate your response and you do make a good point. I am not being facetious when I say, I thought her political stories were more about “unbiased reporting” based on hoe she explained it and I could be wrong. If it’s written as reporting then all sides should be shared. If it is written as a story someone shared and she’s just sharing stories then your point is valid.

The police officer died of a heart attack. NOTHING to do with J6. How about YOU seek out the full story. Maybe you'll learn that a woman was killed by CapitolPolice MichaelByrd. Shot in cold blood in front of witnesses. IN COLD BLOOD. Byrd was quickly given a raise, a promotion and relocated to another security job at a CA university. Her name is AshliBabbitt.

Again... YOU seek out the whole story and you'll also find that Pence was surrounded by SS fully armed. If you think he was in any danger, you really need to think again.

There is more truth coming out about this Pelosi-planned farce.

And Ashley Babbitt was shot and killed by Michael Byrd a Capitol police. So what is your point Mel

What bias? Another side of a story was presented. Sounds like you are more upset that the truth is coming out. And, just maybe, the truth is different than what has been portrayed by our mainstream media and Congressional representatives.

Maybe you should listen to the Chief of the Capitol Police! He tells a quite different story!

This item is exactly when all the Dems will swarm here to give their unfounded opinions re Jan6. DON'T LET THEM GET AWAY WITH IT! This is where the truth comes out. There was NO "insurrection." But, we are being led to believe, based on a Dem committee hearing aired live on TV that Jan 6 was worse than 9-11. There was not ONE Republican on that committee and there was no one there premitting the defense of PresidentTrump. More and more Jan6 whistleblowers are coming forward with the TRUTH.

The BIG question should be: WHY haven't the hours of video of this "insurrection" been released???

After watching weeks of horrific idiotic protests from terrorists calling for death of Jews, which basically makes them Nazi’s and then tearfully reading this account from a 71 year old who has led an exemplary life, be prosecuted for her right to peacefully protest and nothing happen to the terrorists on college campuses walk free, just shows how dangerous this administration is and the ultimate goal of Obama which is to take our flag down and fly the flag the flag of terrorism….is terrifying.

She and her family sound seriously delusional. If she truly studied the Constitution she would realize that what trump and the GOP represent is so far from what our founding fathers wanted for America. Maybe her misplaced devotion to trump could be spent helping those who have been damaged by his and her actions.

What exactly in the Constitution are you basing your comment???? WHO exactly were damaged by PresidentTrump and this woman's actions??? Give some details and some FACTS. Throwing around accusations with key words "Constitution" "founding fathers" "damaged by his and her actions"... link your words with FACTS associated with Jan6. AND, while you're doing your research, please state where exactly Pelosi and her daughter were on that day.

3 years for "remaining in a restricted building?" No one has clarified what the actual law is with regard to entering the Capitol. And the doors were open? Is it trespassing? Obviously, there are differences in the way some of the protesters acted. Some were violent while others were caught up, perhaps in a mob mentality. She certainly does not come across as someone, who needs to be locked up. But again I would like to know what the law actually states. Do you know Jessica? Sabrinalabow.substack.com

What “rights and liberties” was she losing?

And if she feels “God” told her to break and enter that does not absolve her of personal responsibility for her actions

White, rich and Christian does not equal “not at fault”

Expand full comment

She did not break and enter 🤣 J6 officially released video footage proves that the capital police unlocked the doors from the inside (the doors were bombproof, and had both physical and electronic locks that were only operable from the inside) and waved people in. They had no idea that they were committing any kind of crime, as the capital is open to visitors on a regular basis. Then corrupt DOJ lawyers enhanced misdemeanor charges with excessive jail time outside of their statutes, and have held 500 people in jail without trials on misdemeanor charges for 3 years. During the last three years, those prisoners have been denied medical care, have had lost eyes because of being injured by abuse from guards, died of cancer with no treatment… they are not allowed to have meetings with their attorneys, they are not being given their constitutional right to a speedy trial, and congress was denied access to visit them for 6 months. what do you mean “What rights are they being denied” ?

You obviously have not done any research on the topic, because if you did, you would know that everything that it means to be an American, and the rights that we have are being denied to people who simply walked into the capital being waived in by capital police thinking they were doing nothing wrong. If they had been Palestine or BLM protesters, who are currently destroying college campuses, they would’ve been released without charge. Because that’s what’s happening to those people when they walk in the state capitals.

Of the million people who were up in DC that day only 500 have been charged, and only 600 actually made it to the capital grounds. More than 100 of the people who have been charged never even went to the capital or did anything wrong.

If the Biden ministration can take these unconstitutional actions, then the government has the authority to do it in the future, because they sat legal precedent. And that means that anyone can go after anyone, the law doesn’t matter, and our rights are gone.

This is EXACTLY what she was worried about, and you think it doesn’t even exist.

Hey Steve, I guess you're the kind of person who is okay with the Deep State installing puppets to do their bidding and then telling us it's a crime to be angry about.

The doors were opened by the FBI pretending to be MAGA. That's entrapment.

The election was stolen and then anyone who fought back against that, in anyway, was demonized by the System to make an example out if them.

It's the same thing as the mafia killing people who went against them and leaving their bodies in plain site so the neighborhood knows not to mess with them. Only a wee bit more civilized with lawyers, judges, and courts, which just means people are making money off prosecuting Americans for exercising their 1st Amendment Rights.

Entrapment is illegal. This is nothing new. Every type of America First movement gets sabotaged by the police state. From the Civil Rights movement, anti-Vietnam war, the Death squad funding protests about Central America, and all the anti middle east war movements and now MAGA. Anyone who wants to put the people of the United States first is going to be slandered and libeled, railroaded, smeared, and hated by sadistic, weird sycophants. You have become your fascist grandpa.

I have so much to say about all of this. First of all, my heart breaks for her and all the injustice that has been handed down.

Anyone who watched the election saw the same thing as she did. Everything was nearly decided. Only a few percentage points remained, all trending toward Trump. And then everything stopped for hours. I finally gave up and went to bed. Woke to a Biden “win” from some miraculous turn of events in the key swing states during middle of the night.

Second point. My husband and I almost innocently drove to DC that day for all the same reasons she did. Three days before, I Googled how long the drive would be. Answer: “no results” because the maps were down due to “weather”. Insane blatant interference. THEY were actually controlling the maps so people could not get there. I have screenshots of all this. I watched hours in horror on alternative apps. BLM suiting up to look like supporters. Police doing nothing and opening doors. It was the greatest setup imaginable.

We are in the beginning stages of a civil war. Our government and courts have been overtaken by the enemy.

5 years ago I was a normal person just living my life believing what the network news and doctors told me. I’m not the same person anymore.
