Meet The DOJ's Newest Hire: This January 6 Rioter Who Chanted 'Kill Them! Kill Them' About Cops

https://www.wonkette.com/p/meet-the-dojs-newest-hire-this-january

Guess it was just a matter of time?


Pardoned rioter Jared Wise on January 6, 2021, from DOJ charging documents


Remember when pro-insurrectionists were claiming that there were FEDS at the Capitol riots egging on the crowd? Fox News, Ted Cruz, Tucker Carlson, and Trump himself accused a guy named Ray Epps of that, even though Epps was a former Oath Keeper from Arizona who had no connection to the government at all.

But as it turns out there was at least one former FBI agent there encouraging the crowd after all, and now Ed Martin has named him as his counselor on the Weaponization Working Group! A choice so in-your-face lawless and corrupt that even the New York Times calls it a “remarkable development.”

Let’s take a gander at what the FBI said this guy, one Jared Lane Wise, did on January 6, shall we?

First he strolled into the Capitol building through the Senate Wing door, at 2:23 p.m, and clapped his hands in glee and triumph.

This was right after Trump gave his speech in the Ellipse then retreated to the White House to sip a Diet Coke and watch himself ranting at the crowd to “fight like hell. And if you don't fight like hell, you're not going to have a country anymore” and muttering “I hope Mike is going to do the right thing. I hope so. I hope so” and two minutes after Mike Pence was evacuated from the chamber to the Capitol loading dock, unsure if he was going to be able to certify the election, or be spirited away by Secret Service agents, or get hanged on the Ellipse instead.

After getting in and strutting around, Wise then left the building through a window, like a normal tourist does.
Once outside, he started screaming at police as they were being knocked down and beaten right in front of him: “You guys are disgusting. I’m former — I’m former law enforcement. You’re disgusting. You are the Nazi. You are the Gestapo. You can’t see it. . . . Shame on you! Shame on you! Shame on you! Yeah, fuck them! Yeah, kill ‘em! Kill ‘em! Kill ‘em! Kill ‘em!”

"Chris West was sworn in as the president of the National Sheriffs’ Association on June 26. West is the sheriff of Canadian County, Oklahoma. He’s also an ardent supporter of President Trump who traveled to Washington D.C. to join the thousands who protested Trump’s election loss on Jan. 6, 2021."

The SS (Schutzstaffel, or Protection Squads) was originally established as Adolf Hitler’s personal bodyguard unit. It would later become both the elite guard of the Nazi Reich and Hitler’s executive force prepared to carry out all security-related duties, without regard for legal restraint.

1.) From the beginning of the Nazi regime, Hitler entrusted the SS first and foremost with the removal and eventual murder of political and so-called racial enemies of the regime.

2.) The SS became a virtual state within a state in Nazi Germany, staffed by men who perceived themselves as the “racial elite” of the Nazi future.

3.) The SS was specifically charged with the leadership of the “Final Solution,” the murder of European Jews.
