The persecution of J6 political prisoners continues. Jake Lang, who has been incarcerated for three and a half years as a pre-trial detainee, has spent 800 days in solitary confinement for ridiculous infractions, such as accepting an interview with the media. Lang’s attorneys filed a Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus in April, alleging that he “continues to be held and transferred in violation of his constitutional and human rights.”
Lang told me that the “FBI hunted us down like animals” after J6. He said he refused to take a 10-year prison sentence as part of a plea bargain offered to him, because “I don’t negotiate with terrorists.” During J6, he said the Capitol Police officers pushing back on the crowd turned it into a “human swimming pool,” with bodies stacked up three to five high on top of each other.
Lang, who has now spent much of his 20s incarcerated, was arrested after he posted a video on social media of his participation at J6. He was charged with assaulting, resisting, or impeding certain officers or employees, civil disorder, accessing a restricted building or grounds, and violent entry or disorderly conduct.
Although he has no criminal history, he has been denied bond twice. In contrast, convicted violent felons are being increasingly released on little to no bond around the country.
Lang told me that the crowd was peaceful until the police started needlessly tear gassing them, which he said was instigating. He tried to assist victims who were trampled when the police pushed back into the crowd. He attempted to pull Rosanne Boyland out from where she was pinned under other bodies, since he could tell she was unconscious, but was unable to. Boyland later succumbed to her injuries. He said there is video of a female police officer beating Boyland.
Lang said he was able to help two other protesters, Philip Anderson and Tommy Tatum. They signed affidavits later stating that Lang had saved their lives. Lang said when he discovered Anderson, he was lying unconscious with his teeth knocked out. Lang himself was shot in the foot by a police officer.
He is currently being held at Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York. New York state law states that prisoners may be held no longer than 15 days in solitary confinement, but he was held there 36 days. He said he was only allowed out of the cell for two hours a week, not allowed to have books or a radio. State law requires at least four hours a day outside of a cell while in solitary confinement, including one hour for recreation.
A Writ of Habeas Corpus is a court order that brings a defendant in custody in front of a judge and requires the government to prove the validity of the confinement. Lang’s habeas corpus complaint described his treatment as “disgusting unconstitutional conditions, punitive punishment, and treatment that can only be explained as the functional equivalent to torture. … The amount of grievances Lang filed by this point is uncountable, most of which remain unanswered.” Lang has filed over 50 grievances.
His complaint cited denying him access to a court-ordered laptop to review legal documents, moving him around to jails more than a dozen times and losing or destroying his property. The complaint said a former Capitol police officer posted a photo of Lang on social media with the caption, “He fought me in the tunnel. I hope other inmates find out . . . They wanted to fight antifa.”
Many of the J6ers are being held at the Washington D.C. jail, where Lang was confined for some of the time. The conditions there are so bad that the inmates issued a letter stating that they would rather be serving time at Guantanamo Bay, where terrorists are incarcerated.
Lang’s complaint alleged that he was transferred to a part of the D.C. jail away from the other J6ers, which was more dangerous. “[I]nmates in that section are provided information … to provoke such inmates in CDF to be violently aggressive towards, and even attack those alleged to have been involved with January 6th,” his attorneys said.
During one calendar year, he spent over six months in solitary confinement. He said the first time he was sent to “The Hole” was in response to inquiring about Bible study and religious services. He said guards engage in “unsolicited distribution of Islamic fundamentalist literature.”
Another time he said he was standing with a Bible in his hand when guards sprayed “at least half” of a bottle of mace at his face, paraded him around to show his face to others, then threw him back in solitary confinement naked. Despite the religious persecution, Lang told me that he has led Bible studies and baptized 10 people while in jail.
Lang is a Messianic Jew, and said he was not allowed kosher meals, so he went on a hunger strike and lost 25 to 30 pounds. In July 2022, he was ordered not to speak to the media. The complaint asked that prison officials “be ordered to not interfere with Lang exercising his First Amendment rights in speaking to whomever he chooses to.”
Lang has led much of the resistance from J6ers inside the jails, running the website J6Truth, the Political Prisoner Podcast through The Gateway Pundit, and other associated ventures with the help of his fiancee. The original video on J6Truth is the top viewed video on Rumble, with almost two million views.
The U.S. Supreme Court’s new decision on charging 349 January 6 protesters with 18 USC 1512(c)(2), which makes it a felony punishable by 20 years in prison for obstructing an official proceeding, probably won’t affect Lang much. Although the court held that the statute was meant to be limited to circumstances involving forms of evidence tampering, most of the protesters are still facing other charges.
Donald Trump promised pardons for all of the J6 political prisoners if reelected president. Lang raised over half a million for his legal defense, and raised another $7,000 to assist the families of the imprisoned J6ers.
We need a Special Prison for Bill Clinton Barack Obama Joe Biden and his Son Hunter George Soros and Son as well as Coffee Cup Anan
Oh no. That would be too good for them. Throw them in to MAX lockup and see how they like being treated like they treated J6 protesters!
Don’t forget Hillary Hillary Clinton and Pelosi… lock these excrement!
Anan croaked years ago and he certainly would have had no connection to this scandal. The entire J6 persecution team including Adam Schifty, Weepy Kitzinger, and Sourpuss Loser Cheney should be swiftly prosecuted and locked up for the rest of their miserable lives.
Soros should be deported for having aided the Nazis deportation of Jews to the Auschwitz gas chambers . Frontpagemag published an article on this when Pres Trump held office.
Please pray for all the USA’s political prisoners, especially the J6 people, Derek Chauvin, and the Georgia Three (Ahmet Aubery).
We have to do more than pray – we have to take action – contact your local reps and senators – not that they will move on that – unless flooded with demands to fix this injustice and warfare – we are in coup d’etat –
My reps are all Dems hellbent on destroying this country – Wheldon Shitehouse, David Vaselini and Jacky (I’ve been in DC a long time) Reed. Rhode Island would be fantastic if it were a Red state, but there’s no hope here.
I’m always surprised how little publicity the show trials get. But I shouldn’t be, the government owns the media these days, either directly or indirectly through advertising.
America should be ashamed of itself.
This is an election year. Call and write your representative. Get your friends to sign a petition and send it to him. Discuss voting for opposition. Get off your butt. He likes the money so he has to listen.
Might makes Right. As long as democrats are in charge their political opponents will be persecuted
with lawfare, jail, cancellation. The SCOTUS decisions will have little if any effect and business as usual
continues.
If Trump wins in November and he pardons every J6er on Day 1 I hope a flood of lawsuits starts raining down on the Leftist lowlifes who created this travesty. Ruin them financially and politically. The lawyers will be lining up to prosecute. I hope Jack Smith and Judge Merchan go to jail. At least disbarred.
What a beautiful thought! I hope you prove prescient.
thing is in the end the Amercian taxpayer will be paying those lawsuits
A good use of taxpayer money if it’s what it takes to fight political persucitons and protect our freedoms.
$$$s I will gladly pay.
On DAY ONE ALL J6 Prisoners should be RELEASED after their PARDONS. On DAY TWO those cells should be populated with the SCUM who put them there! Every J6 Prisoner should be interviewed – video interviews – and document their torture! Any Prison EE identified should be immediately arrested and put in the same cells. This POLITICAL PERSECUTION cannot go UNPUNISHED! Nanzi Pelosi is ON VIDEO stating that this is ALL HER FAULT. There are videos of the crowds protesting PEACEFULLY until ATTACKED BY Capitol Police – SELF DEFENSE should set them all FREE! This is the most disgusting episode in DEMOcrat degeneracy – the WILLFUL PERSECUTION and DENIAL of CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS simply to TERRORIZE the OPPOSITION!
So now we know that the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York is, in addition to the D.C. jail an extended camp of the American Gulag Archipelago. Thanks to a June 17, 2024 article on Gateway Pundit we have a better handle on how big the American Gulag is. The Nationwide hunger strike planned by January 6th prisoners shows a system of 60 Bureau of Prisons facilities that have been turned into concentration camps for political prisoners.
We’re going to need Nuremberg style trials for the guards, police, politicians, prosecutors and judges who participated in these crimes against American citizens. We need to spend the rest of the 21st Century finding and punishing any co-conspirator from the political top to bottom of the Party who is still at large.
This is horror! They are letting criminals and jihadists flow over the border and give our tax dollars to the in $2,000 gift cards, smart phones and carte blanche wherever they want to be flown to which are to get training in terrorist cells, no arrests or no bail releases of antifa and antisemitic rioters and violence against Jews in USA. The litany of crimes against the citizens and nation of USA are treasonous and felonious. J6 are treated as bad if not worse than the those around 9-11-01. Prison guards are sadistic and then after their shift join their families, or friends or comrades for dinner. WTF has happened to the USA? A vile demonic coup d’etat without firing a single shot. The first salvo was the pLandemic that proved to them and us they can control us and cut off supplies with engineered shortages and inflation! Have us on our knees. All the wars around the world are because and from the machinations of this coup d’etat including the 10-7-2023 butchering of Jewish civilians. This one J6 incarcerated victim, Jake Lang, who has been incarcerated for three and a half years as a pre-trial detainee, has spent 800 days in solitary confinement-is a Messianic Jew – I am sure antisemitism is also part of his abuse.
This brings more anger to Ana Luna and the Republicans in the House backing off on arresting the lawless Garland.
I think Luna gave it her best. If the rest are against her, we can only blame the uniparty. Luna deserves praise for her efforts.
He would be already dead if pulling a food quality & calorie boycott in Roman Legion, Nazi or Communist concentration camp or gulag. He’s still alive within the residual effects of a white christian society. He should count his lucky star of Davey like Saul of Tarsus and appeal to Caesar.
There ought not be a place far enough away or deep enough or dark enough, for all of those involded in the chain of prosection and detention, to hide from the retributive justice that must follow them.
