Attorney: Jan. 6 Prisoners Brutally Beaten, Stripped, Hogtied, Humiliated by Guards – One Prisoner Blinded in One Eye – Worse Abuse Than Gitmo

Who would have thought America would degenerate to the point where we now have a regime in power that exhibits all the traits of a totalitarian form of government....absolutely outrageous.

Leftist are beating off to this Non-Stop

I suppose that if I were a lawyer charged with providing a full-throated, vigorous legal defense to these guys, these kinds of public charges would be in my playbook, too. All they are now, though, are charges, presented without evidence beyond the testimony of people who have something fairly obvious to gain.

That said, every charge deserves to be investigated, and according to the DOJ mouthpiece, that's what they're doing. Otherwise, unless some more solid evidence comes up, I can't imagine a DA in the country pressing charges.

Of course Vindman was believed! He was and is a man of honor, vs. the chronic liar n chief....!!!

He lied his stupid ass off...lol

This is also a perfect chance to point out exactly what it looks like when propaganda pretends to be the news. One story, two sources: Gateway Pundit and Politico.

Gateway Pundit presents the story as if every word of it was true. Look at what the sentences say:
- [Samsel] "was awakened"
- "then ... brutally beaten"
- "Samsel lost an eye"
These aren't telling about the allegations, these are describing things that factually happened, despite the allegations being far from proven.

Now Politco.
- "a graphic account ... went further."
- "Sandlin said," then "Sandlin also described."
- "Defense attorneys ... confirmed the episodes."
- "Steven Metcalf ... said that ..." and "Metcalf added"
These are all describing people saying things, without determining whether those things are true or not.

Gateway Pundit also tells the reader what they should think.
- "Worse abuse than Gitmo"
- "This is an absolutely horrific account!"
- "... being treated worse than America's most dangerous enemies."
These are judgments, not statements of fact. This is standard practice for an outlet whose intent is to appeal to pre-existing beliefs, rather than present the facts.

Politico provided extensive quotes from the detainee and several lawyers on one side, as well as spokespeople for the jail system and the FBI on the other, and offered an opinion from an unconnected veteran attorney.

Politico leans left, 'tis true, but it presented the information in this article ethically and completely; for a right-leaning equivalent, look at The Hill or The Wall Street Journal.

Gateway Pundit advertises its bias in its headline banner: "We report the truth—and leave the Russia-Collusion fairy tale to the Conspiracy media."

I'm just waiting for you to sober up.

Any proof yet? Or are you just a chronic liar?

Don’t let the dem gestapo take you away. Have means to record your arrest and instantly send it into cyberspace. Cherish derelict spaces.

Better yet. Have the means to record your illegal behavior and instantly send into cyberspace. That’s what these geniuses did. Makes them far easier to apprehend.
