A twitter thread shared by Brad Geyer relays a letter presented by a jailed J6 detainee held inside the Washington DC Department of Corrections. [Twitter Link Here] The content of the letter written by a detainee named Nathan DeGrave is very disturbing. The allegations within the letter are alarming; however, they are supported by other detainees who have described similar conditions.
Dear fellow Americans:
I never thought I’d write a letter like this, but we’re living in very different times. This is my cry for help.
My name is Nathan DeGrave, and as a non violent participant at the Jan 6th rally, I’ve spent the last 9 months detained as a political prisoner in pod C2B at the DC Department of Corrections (DOC) otherwise known as DC’s Gitmo.
The conditions here for Jan 6ers have been inhumane. In fact, some inmates are even begging to be transferred to GUANTANAMO BAY, where even THEY have more acceptable standards.
Class action LAWSUITS are being filed against this prison; and even the ACLU has gotten involved. Senators Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Greene have since attempted to gain access to this facility and inspect the conditions of the jail, only to be denied. The vile filth of what has become our daily life is being illegally HIDDEN from the members of OUR OWN CONGRESS.
So let me tell you about what me and many of the other Jan 6ers have been experiencing in DC’s Gitmo. It is my hope that with MEDIA EXPOSURE and the awareness of the American public, that SOMETHING may be done and this never happens to anyone ever again.
♦ OUR CONDITIONS – For the first 120 days in DC’s Gitmo, Jan 6ers experienced DAILY LOCKDOWNS for 23-24 HOURS before being allowed to leave our small 120 sq. ft cell. The PHYSICAL and MENTAL ANGUISH that results from this kind of SEVERE ISOLATION has caused many people to go on a RAPID mental decline.
As a result, a large percentage of us are HEAVILY MEDICATED with anti-anxiety and anti-depressant drugs, which helps to cope with the psychological and mental ABUSE we endure.
Many times, the little rec we DO receive is STRIPPED AWAY if our cell isn’t up to the standards of the guard on duty. This changes from day to day. Jan 6ers have lost rec time and out of cell activity ANY TIME news interviews about the jail are aired on TV, people speak up about our conditions, or rallies are held in our name. We’ll probably have a lockdown upon the publishing of this letter. So I have already warned those I know in advance.
Masks are WEAPONIZED and used against us, even though we NEVER leave the facility. Officers have walked in with the SOLE INTENTION of needing to write 20-30 disciplinary reports against Jan 6ers, which adversely effects our chances of release and causes loss of privileges, phone time and commissary. Masks need to be covering both the nose and mouth AT ALL TIMES or we are threatened and locked down in our cells. Jan 6ers are always respectful to the employees around us, but CO’s maintain the need to invent reasons for discipline.
PRIVILEGED LEGAL DOCUMENTS have been CONFISCATED and gone missing from various cells, and HIGHLY SENSITIVE discovery (video evidence under attorney/client privilege) is watched by employees during our legal calls.
Jordan Mink, for example, had all discovery TAKEN by ERT officers on August 23rd despite the objection of his attorney. They handcuffed him, searched his room, and then proceeded to take all video evidence in his possession. Additionally, legal visits take 2-3 WEEKS or more to be scheduled, leaving little time to discuss our defense and prepare for trial.
The EXTREME medical neglect in this facility has caused a variety of adverse illnesses and disease. Some show signs of scurvy. And some even have Covid like symptoms, but medical personnel have refused to treat it.
Christopher Worrell, for example, is an inmate with Cancer, who also broke his hand in prison and requires surgery. Both have been completely ignored. Federal judge Royce Lamberth got to the point where on October 12th, he filed contempt of court charges against the warden of the DC DOC, claiming that Worrell’s civil rights have been violated, and demanding the U.S attorney general inquire further about his and other possible violations.
Another inmate, Peter Stager, WAITED FOUR MONTHS to receive his CPAP breathing machine, and has needed an MRI since spring, which has also been ignored by staff.
The harsh, unlivable conditions of our unit has caused health hazards that defy Department of Health regulations. And on at least five occasions, RAW SEWAGE has overflowed our unit, causing human fecal matter to flood the floors and rooms. That’s also in addition to the MOLD on cell walls, as well as the rusty pipes, and DIRTY WATER that flows from these sinks. White rags TURN BROWN when exposed to the water from our faucets.
We are undergoing SEVERE NUTRITIONAL DEFICIENCIES and STARVATION. For breakfast this morning, I received a tray of flavorless paste, two slices of bread, and a slice of bologna. Lunches usually consist of rice and beans, but we’ll get cold chicken/beef patties if we are lucky. For dinner, we are sometimes fed a diet of cheese sandwiches, and bologna and cheese 4 to 5 times per week.
Without commissary, people like myself are FORCED TO STARVE. I suffer from HEADACHES and NAUSEA on an almost REGULAR BASIS from the malnutrition and constant hunger I am subjected to. I have lost ALMOST 15 POUNDS since I’ve been detained.
Our rights to personal hygiene are also totally neglected. Razors are PROHIBITED, and inmates are forced to either go unshaved and grow long beards, or use a razor free cream that BURNS and IRRITATES the skin. But many other jails have allowed the use of razors without incident. Haircuts are also PROHIBITED from unvaccinated inmates.
For me, it’s been nearly 9 months. I look VIRTUALLY UNRECOGNIZABLE in the condition I’m in. I fear even my family would not recognize me.
Contact with the outside world, from legal visits to seeing loved ones is HIGHLY RESTRICTED. After in-person visits, legal or otherwise, we are forced to undergo humiliating STRIP SEARCHES, despite ALL visitors being thoroughly checked for contraband. If it’s a legal visit, we are placed in a 14 day quarantine, with no out of cell time; EVEN IF your attorney is VACCINATED and tests NEGATIVE for Covid. Visits with friends or family members, for unvaccinated inmates, are NEVER ALLOWED.
As a result, many people have skipped critical meetings with their council, and NEVER get an opportunity to see friends or family. VIDEO VISITATION, while available to the rest of the jail, is RESTRICTED in the Jan 6 pod. Mail is delayed for MONTHS, and phone calls are limited to a MAXIMUM of pre approved 12 numbers. If there’s anyone else in our extended family or otherwise we’d like to call, we’re pretty much out of luck.
RELIGIOUS SERVICES, protected by the 1st amendment, are NOT provided to Jan 6ers. Neither are in person classes or other activities available to the rest of the jail. An inmate named Ryan Samsel, instead attempted to organize his own bible study inside the pod, until he was viciously BEATEN and LEFT FOR DEAD by correctional officers. He suffered a broken eye socket and brain damage as a result of the vicious attack. He’s now permanently blind in one eye. On another occasion, Scott Fairlamb was confronted by an officer in the middle of the night, and his life was threatened, once the officer’s body cam was disabled. Many, like myself, are afraid they could be the next victim.
And last but not least, we experience racism from many guards on a daily basis, being the ONLY WHITE REPUBLICANS in the entire jail. The false narrative is has been passed around the jail and to corrections officers that we are “white supremacists” (we are NOT). The inmate population is predominantly black, so we are at risk being here because of this false narrative. The guards are mostly liberal migrants from Africa who have been conditioned to hate us, and hate America.
Jan 6ers have been mocked, beaten and ridiculed by guards for singing the National Anthem. The Corrections Officers despise our politics and the love we have for this country. At one point, an officer even yelled “FUCK AMERICA!”, and threatened to lock us down FOR A WEEK if we attempted to sing the National Anthem again.
♦ THE TRUTH ABOUT MY STORY – Finally, I feel like I should touch briefly on the government and prosecutor’s portrayal of who I am as a person.
No, I am not a terrorist, extremist or any of the other names I’ve been called by the government. More than anything, I am a red blooded patriot and I love this country more than anything.
I am being unfairly prosecuted and definitely overcharged. I never assaulted anyone, destroyed property, or stolen anything. I walked through wide open doors to enter the Capitol, along with my camera crew hoping to get the rally on video. I was never even armed at any point inside the Capitol.
Our goal was to make a documentary, and get likes and shares on social media. Yes I wore a costume (that the prosecutor refers to as paramilitary gear and body armor) but it was for the movie and was nothing of the sort. And yet, 9 months later here I sit, with 10 years worth of charges and no hope for a future. The surveillance footage shows absolutely no signs of assault, and despite attempts by media companies to get it released to the public, the government has denied it.
I think that’s because they are fully aware that this footage is questionable at worst, and exonerates me at best. Please don’t be fooled by the media. I am a loving and peaceful person with no history of violence.
This weaponized DOJ and their blatant resentment of my respect for President Donald Trump is putting me in a situation that makes me feel helpless in my current situation.
HOW YOU CAN HELP – Despite me and other Jan 6ers experiencing these unthinkable conditions, all of us remain POSITIVE and HOPEFUL that, in the end, JUSTICE WILL PREVAIL. We maintain a LOVE for this country and the Constitution like no other. The only thing keeping us going is our undying patriotism, the camaraderie between one another and our faith in God.
Please…SHARE THIS LETTER with EVERYONE you know: friends and family, senators, representatives, political organizers, civil rights groups and media outlets.
The truth HAS to get out. And the jail MUST PAY for what they are doing to this country’s citizens.
As a result of this unlawful detainment the last 9 months, I have lost everything. The successful business I spent 13 years of my life working on, my apartment in Las Vegas, social media accounts with a lifetime of memories… you name it.
The government has essentially CANCELLED ME. Not only that, but following the arrest, my best friend of 12 years robbed my apartment, stole my cat, and hacked my personal Instagram with 100,000+ followers. Since then, I often go between feelings of hopefulness and moments of depression. I wonder if I can ever recover from this, but I have to remind myself to never give up.
There are major medical complications I now struggle with as a result of the jail’s neglect of my health since being here. If there is any way I hope to recover, my only hope are the ones who are reading this. I was on top of the world once upon a time, and that life seems now only like a distant memory.
If there’s anything you can do to help, I would appreciate anything at all. Inmates here are being extorted with lack of nutrition, forcing me to spend most of what’s left on commissary which I can no longer afford.
I need desperate help with my legal expenses and just help staying alive in here with commissary and all the expenses I still have on the outside as my livelihood and life has been stripped away from me. Thank you for any her you can afford, even if it is a few dollars it goes a long way in here.
Sincerely and with love,
Nathaniel DeGrave
To those of you questioning the validity of this report on what this DEFENDANT is experiencing, here you go.
Julie Kelly ?? (@julie_kelly2) Tweeted:
I am getting questions about whether this is legit. It is. Nate has been in DC Gitmo since the spring—what he writes is corroborated by others.
If you can’t believe Julie Kelly, the premier reporter on this disgusting, unlawful, unconstitutional treatment of American DEFENDANTS, then I’m sorry you’re either an enemy plant or ill equipped to think critically.
Exactly ?
Thanks for the information ? update
Should help to encourage some who are still trying to get the truth.
Very timely follow-up
This simply can’t be true. This tears me apart.
Muslim terrorists and murderers get treated better. That’s because they are Democrats or Democrat allies. These political prisoners who at best committed misdemeanors, are Patriots/heritage Americans, thus to be treated this way.
On another note, Congressional reps Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor-Greene, who seem to be one of the few trying to defend these patriots and they are never on Fox
Well, Fox has gone left since Ailes left snd the loony sons and Paul Ryan now have power.
No-one ever again . . , with a few key exceptions like nancy pelosi, chuck schumer, and joe biden.
If you don’t think this is coming for all of us, you haven’t a clue.
Parents protesting school boards are probably next.
What if we did a nationwide petition for due process for the J6 prisoners?
We could cite violations in care and torturous conditions contrary to American law.
The goal being an immediate improvement in conditions, rights allowed by law observed, communications allowed, representation and legal material protected, and an observance of the due process that the American legal system is supposed to provide.
Expecting a government that has altogether wiped its ass with our Constitution to respond to a petition?
The post-Constitutional regime will win when the people it targets are still playing by Constitutional rules. They bring guns, a bought-and-paid-for tricameral government and the media to the fight while we only bring a petition. They’re already winning. We have petitions, protests, Carlson and Levin, Alex Jones, Steve Bannon and Mike Lindell. They have Congress, the courts, the intelligence and defense apparatus, the media, and big tech.
There’s nowhere to run to; there’s no way to run; every state and county will be its own gulag. Hope in the system—even the system of Constitutional governance—has made us prisoners in rapidly-shrinking cells, with gradually-materializing chains and shackles.
If I’d seen what I’ve written here in 2019 I’d have thought I was crazy, an extremist. I’ve only ever just believed that the system would self-correct.
But no system means anything if those in power refuse to be constrained by it while using it to kill and imprison the lawful and conscientious by every means possible.
Exactly ?
I know you’re right. It is nearly impossible for me to wrap my brain around a world that does not function in the parameters that have been there for so long.
And it breaks my %^#*in’ heart! I’m trying to be nice here, but it’s soul-crushing.
As Jan Markell of Olive Tree Ministries often says, “Things aren’t falling apart—they’re falling into place.”
It’s a merciful thing God does, cutting our roots that have grown deep into a world that is in full-on rebellion, a syndrome that poisons every part of a person. If you’ve repotted a tree, you’d know that quite a few roots get severed and left behind. That hurts.
I know that Heaven is my home, and Jesus is my King, and He is coming soon. But my family has been in America since 1620. Five Mayflower signatories are my ancestors. What that means for me is that it’s pretty damn hard to let go, and I’m finding with each new day a deeper level from which I need to detach not just for my good but for others’ benefit as well.
My grandmother researched our lineage to the Mayflower as well.
I understand the need to detach. I have done as much myself at times.
These are horrifying and tempestuous waters we ride as Americans. Each day I have new appreciation for those that gave us this country and how difficult it must have been.
SO true. It’s ironic that the Pilgrims fled tyranny in the early 1600s…and their legacy has become the very thing they opposed.
“Lord! Can’t You see that we’re dying here?!”, they said as the winds and waves were tossing their boat violently and swamping it. “Don’t You care?”
“Watch Me now…” (my interpretation)…Jesus spoke to the storm “QUIET!” and the sea became calm at just one word from Him. (Matthew 8; Mark 4)
… do you know why people shut up in Nazi Germany? … Dachau..
…while asking for donations. ? Remember his pre-Trump days on radio?
That’s not imprisonment, that’s Torture.
We have got to take names on this one.
DC is not even a State! I wonder if that has something to do with this.
That said, the NY Post has a similar story at Rikers Island in NY. With pictures.
https://nypost.com/2021/10/21/photos-inside-rikers-island-expose-hellish-deadly-conditions/
It’s hard for me to believe that letter posted could have gotten out from DC but it could have been smuggled out by an attorney. Rikers has criminals but DC has POLITICAL PRISONERS! That’s a huge difference.
Now we know why the need for all those military aged invaders….a brief glimpse of the future?
Not for me…….

One caution on the money part: John Pierce was allegedly involved in some money chicanery along with Lin Wood surrounding the Kyle Rittenhouse case resulting in a significant wasting of bail money that was raised. Be sure what exactly one is contributing to.
Link of proof?
“One caution on the money part: John Pierce was allegedly involved in some money chicanery along with Lin Wood surrounding the Kyle Rittenhouse case resulting in a significant wasting of bail money that was raised. Be sure what exactly one is contributing to.”
I’d also caution against donating to Tim “Baked Alaska” Gionet’s legal defense fund.
Mr. Gionet claims to be a persecuted conservative Christian, but he has a long history of adopting alternating political positions based on expediency and self-promotion opportunities. His current occupation is livestreaming with a group of drug addicts who film themselves harassing strangers in public. He has an lengthening arrest record, which includes assaulting a bouncer with pepper spray. Although arrested at the J6 event, and despite the fact that merely being in Washington was a parole violation, he managed to stay out of jail; this has led to speculation he may be a Federal informant.
Think twice.
Baked Alaska is probably a Fed. Richard Spencer as well.
I don’t remember about John Pierce, but Lin Wood has done nothing wrong as far as your definition of money chicanery relates to. Mr. Wood has written about it on his Telegram page, I don’t remember the date but I read it. Many are telling untruths about Lin Wood and trying to discredit him because he is pro-Trump and fighting to fix the 2020 travesty.
The Obummer appointed judge who held them pending trial for MISDEMEANORS needs to be charged with crimes against humanity.
Na, just dragged out in the street and let the crowd deal with them.
Jailers and judges need to start expiring unexpectedly.
a large part of the mistreatment is anti-white racist abuse by blacks, but boomers don’t want to discuss that for fear of being called racist.
Ok….inmates file lawsuits in prison if their mashed potatoes at dinner are not warm enough for them.
They should be having a field day with the lawsuits they could be filing.
And if they are not filing their family members should be filing.
Sidney Powell was on War Room asking for lawyers who are licensed in D.C. to step up and help her provide legal representation for these prisoners. She was on more than once pleading for lawyers to help. Apparently it’s a big problem, finding lawyers, who are not politically affiliated or just afraid of repercussions.
But, if you are an illegal, an American group of lawyers will step up and sue the government. Then you probably will receive a jackpot of 450,000 to 1,000,000 US dollars !
.
To be fair, not just any laywer will do. It needs to be someone highly competent and experienced in criminal law who is admitted to the DC Bar. Who is willing and able to spend a huge amount of time and probably not get paid much, if anything. And who doesn’t have a conflict of interest because they are related to a law enforcement officer, DC or federal, or an attorney for the other side.
Something like 5,000 lawyers in DC , but most don’t fit that bill.
Possibly that is why the government went after Powell, to try to prevent her from representing these people?
Quite right. The association of trial lawyers has always been a large democratic party constituent. As in many other areas, conservatives have often had to stay undercover to survive. This can only increase. Wait until the army of trans lawyers graduate and pass the bar.
Exactly.

The government has no case. They will never go to trial. The wait in jail “IS” the punishment or bankrupting people just like Gen. Flynn. Innocent until Proven Guilty no longer exists . They will simply sick the government lawyers on you who have limitless funds to drive you into bankruptcy – that is the punishment no matter if you are totally innocent.
Those who survive will be rich from book deals. Still, I pray for them.
People need to understand that the narrative of having “hundreds of Jan. 6 detainees, arrested purportedly for insurrection (though not charged for insurrection!!)” is an important prop that gives fake legitimacy to the sham Jan.6 congressional hearing currently ongoing.
Dems have mastered the art of fake legitimacy. Note that even Merrick Garland ( US Attorney General!?), in his congressional testimony, cited NEWS MEDIA REPORTS (??) as the fake legitimacy for his outrageous memo unleashing the FBI on the Nation’s parents of school children, just as the Crossfire Hurricane, DOJ/ FBI crowd did during the Mueller farce and witch hunt.
Dems have to maintain this current, detainee status quo for as long as they possibly can so that their sham congressional investigation can yield the hoped-for political payoff, i.e. the death of Donald Trump’s future presidential candidacy.
Those that wonder where the constitutional authority comes from to conduct this kind of detention should know that insurrection charges are treated differently from the criminal codes. It’s right in Article I which carves out circumstances of insurrection for suspending habeas corpus (rights to a speeding trial).
Knowing what we now know, this government action qualifies as one of the greatest abuses of power this country has ever known!
This is sickening. And here I sit in my house comfortable and these Americas are imprisoned by an illegitamate regime. So what are some specific things that we can do to help these wrongfully imprisoned Americans? Sundance…please give us some guidance…….We can be a force multiplier..
Does anyone know of a place where we can donate to this group?
What I also want to know. I’d buy him a commissary meal but don’t know how.
In order to buy a commissary card, you have to go through Western Union and know the inmate ID #. I believe there are some links in these comments that show you how to get the ID #. This is the Western Union link to send money to an inmate. https://www.westernunion.com/us/en/send-money/app/sendinmatestart
Why the Republicans in Congress don’t hold daily intervention meetings us beyond me
Because Republicans don’t give a damn about you or me. They care about obtaining power and maintaining it.
I contacted my congressman and one of my senators and they didn’t do anything, just sent me bs form letter replies. They wont touch it.
You are correct! They have a couple of Senators and a few members of the House of Representatives that may make a few noises, but the vast majority of the GOP prefer to be part of the woodwork. Just blend in and do nothing. Some senators are so anti-GOP that they vote with the Dems. This is the most dysfunctional group of elected folks I have ever seen. We the people also have no voice. The MSM make absolutely sure no word of these people is ever leaked out. The court system seems to me to be blinded by pure old prejudice . What ever happened to a “Speedy trial?.” Ms Pelosi and her minions are making absolutely sure these patriots are being prosecuted (and persecuted) to the fullest extent of the law. There is NO JUSTICE available for these citizens. The judicial system in this case is a farce.
And as Sundance has noted repeatedly, the (R)s fare no better than when they are in the minority, playing the “controlled but outraged opposition” role while raking in cash from Americans wanting a better way.
1/6 was when my trust in that political party evaporated along with Judas Pence’s sham patriotism. Talk about a reptilian, dead-eyed turncoat.
And a school shooter is released on bond the next day.
Be very afraid.
Folks like us are on their list.
Judicial Watch is getting videos and records through FOIA. But it could take years to help these people.
What Banana Republic am I living in; and what have they done with the United States of America
It got cancer in 1916, metastasized in 1934, became fatale in 1964,
On deaths doorstep in 2001,
Became zombie in 2008.
I assume you meant it started Woodrow Wilson, the man who oppressed open Communists while setting up Federal socialism. Wilson dragged America into the Great War despite promising not to do so in his 1916 campaign.
It was on the foundation of Wilson’s duplicity that FDR built his unconstitutional four-term presidency (depending on how one counts; he completed a third and began a fourth until dying in 1945). Everyone was against Communism but most of FDR’s top cabinet members and advisors were deeply socialist. Many of them were registered members of the Intercollegiate Socialist Society founded by Upton Sinclair in 1905. FDR brought a starving America wholesale into socialism in the guise of first fighting poverty and then fighting totalitarianism. Same old scam.
PDJT warned us what would happen if OBiden were elected. Much worse has happened. Now the nation, and certainly the rest of the world—is willingly being led into the Communist abattoir in the name of health and an ever-elusive “return to normal”.
Exactly…
No quarter should be granted
Nor mercy given.

OMG!!!! This is not the country I was born and have lived in my entire life!!!
I am sickened and speechless.
WHO is Brad Geyer?
suspicious cat when he said *Senators Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Greene* They are NOT senators and he should know that.
I knew this was going on. I just knew they were abusing these detainees. I am disgusted, and horrified
Does anybody know a reliable means of assisting the J6 prisoners? Mailing address, acceptable items, etc.?
I would contact jail. Sending items..nothing acceptable usually on jail. Check online also. Maybe they have info there.
He probably has some type of ID number. Try to find out what it is.
I would recommend finding out how to send money to them which they can use for commissary.
Not familiar with DC jail..but prison commissary is what is called “store” in AZ. They can buy snacks,hygiene products etc.
Some prisons only allow inmates to make phone calls if they have money on “the books” (commissary).
It used to be they would just call the approved number and reverse charges. Now they have to have money and they pay it instead. Check to see how that is done in DC
Mail such as Christmas cards and letters allowed. But…have that ID #.
I am familiar with prison protocol…21 plus years…retired now.
Find out who leads, staffs and work at this jail.
Publish their names.
Publish the names of their leadership hierarchy.
Make them famous.
If you think the USA doesn’t have political prisoners like China or Russia now you know it does after reading this. There have been other accounts too. It’s not just the Biden administration and Congress who is supporting this. And yes the GOP establishment wants to make an example of these “dirty” Trump supporters just as much as the Dems. The worst part is that the judiciary is part of it too. Notice all appeals for the rights of these detainees have been denied. Most of these judges are just political activists in robes. That’s why they were appointed. It’s sickening.
Remember, the DC circuit court or a appeals court is the reason Harry Reid did away with the 67 member vote requirement. They were stacking the courts under Obama‘s purview.
Hold Nancy Pelosi directly responsible. The law has become political. Only God can dethrone our enemies of freedom in Washington DC.
Many hills to defend. Pick one.
How did he get this letter out?
I was very disappointed that only my man Louie brought up the political prisoners over the 2 days Garland spent before Congress last week.
Something must be done about this.
The GOP are all cowards because of the “insurrection” narrative around J6, as well as the fact that Stalinesqe committee has everyone’s they want phone records
This is tyranny….
Where is the GOP!?!??!?!?!??!?!?!??!?!?!?!??!
It time to peacefully siege the jail house. Sop the normal flow of goods and services with bodies protesting wile we still can. What’s the address of this place and when will you start. Picket it 24/7. in California they stop the freeways what are you willing to do for your freedom, your right to a speedy trial, to have your accuser in court.
God damn those devils to hell and to eternal torment for the friends that order them about.
Fiends, not friends, useless autocorrect.
There were/are more than 50 prestigious law firms that represented pro bono the terrorists held in Gitmo.
To date, not a single law firm has stood up to represent these political prisoners in a similar way.
The Far Left is thoroughly marxist, and the Progressives and their lackeys in media, on judicial benches, and in law firms are their “useful idiots”.
Julie Kelly of American Greatness has followed and reported on the arrests and conditions of these political prisoners since the beginning. Every time I read one of her articles I feel physically sick. I vacillate between outrage at the despicable treatment and sympathy for the victims plight. But where is the outrage from people who can do something about it? Other than Marjorie Taylor Greene and a couple of other representatives, there has been no outrage. MTG sent a letter to Justice about the conditions, requesting further information and demanding answers but if she ever received a response, I never heard about it. If that is the case, why isn’t she demanding more? Was it just a publicity stunt? Also, I don’t recall hearing anything from conservative radio and television personalities? I don’t listen and watch everything but from what I have seen, I do not believe that they are giving this the attention it deserves. This Constitution 101 – equal treatment under the law, due process, cruel and unusual punishment. I feel powerless and that is the real crime.
Trump called the crowd to go to the Congress. He did nothing to relieve them from jail. Do you want to vote for Trump after that ?
TRUMP asked no one to break into any buildings in Washington.
So yeah, ready to vote for him again. 🙂
Ok….I will try and get more info on Nathan.
But first…let me get this off my chest..
Jail and prison suck. Period.
I can understand why they put them in solitary. To put them in with contact with other inmates right after Jan 6…would have been disaster. A huge safety risk for them. You always go for the Most secure options. General population would not have been safe for them.
We called solitary..protective custody for a reason. And yes, only 1 hour out of cell each day. Normal. And then they are escorted etc.
Food–as long as it equals the allotted amt of calories usually 2500 per day…and the food groups, etc. A lot of complaints about food…always. You can’t be a picky eater in there. No al la cart and special requests.
Phone calls..normal. You can only have pre approved numbers. This is to protect victims and from having inmates in jail call threatening them–also to limit cartels/mafia doing business. And phone calls are recorded and monitored. Normal.
Strip searches after visits…normal procedure. You can do pat down of visitors, they can only bring what approved by prison. And you would Not believe what has been smuggled in! Yikes. So yeah…strip search after visits.
Mail….Legal is protected. But, still must be opened in front of inmate and scanned. Your girlfriend sending letter and porno pics and putting in Manila envelope with fake law office address return address and marked Legal mail –it happens. Lol -ick
Regular mail there are laws that protect it. Without correct ID and location..pod…it will hold it up. DC Mail not known for being fast to begin with.
If it can be determined that the J6 prisoners are being treated any differently from any other inmates..then there is Major case. Not many people go into any jail and tell anyone how great it was! Street people probably like it.
Sewage..oh yeah…inmates think it is great pastime to overflow toilets. It is usually where if caught with contraband…like small phones (flip)…there is a mad dash to flush it! Same with drugs. They flush it..you don’t have it for evidence or to find out who they were talking to. If they do it just for fun…we would give them mop and supervise while They cleaned it up. Usually broke that habit fast.
That the DC jail is a dive..I have no doubt. All of DC is a dive. Amazing he didn’t say anything about cockroaches.
Religion…surprised they do not have Religious volunteers going there for inmates.
I do feel so sorry for them. Truly. Jail or on the wrong side of “the bars” would be my worst nightmare! Lol…I don’t even go 5 miles over a speed limit!
Most play cards ..for commissary..lol. Watch TV, read, and tell each other tall tales…write letters..and get into mischief.
We can help them best by finding them Legal counsel and sending letters of encouragement. I do wonder though if my return address would put me on a watch list……
Legal counsel fund for me!
I have done my time. I am retired. I have many friends still working at prison. Love them dearly. 99.9% are people who do a job and they do it well. And are not crazy sadistic people.
His comment about African migrants..didn’t set well with me. Good grief..they are calling J6 prisoners white Supremists and he makes a comment like that? Stupid.
Best thing we can do is get them out of there by finding Legal counsel.
Sorry for the extremely long post. Think all the years as Treeper–this is longest!!
We all have knowledge of something…and my experience hopefully will help.
Bless you all!
Thank you for the practical advice and using your experience to educate us all.
Your welcome!
Almost every single thing he writes..even the medication..is not uncommon. Or can I say .. it’s normal-typical? Sigh..it’s prison.
Prison/jail is definitely a depressing/anxiety environment. Many do wind up on medication. And that is why razors for shaving are not really a good idea! Common sense..
What he writes (gripes?) about room inspections…even basic training in military have them. Unfortunately for some guys.. they don’t have their maid or Mom to clean for them..! Inspections are necessary. Otherwise it would be the worst nightmare frat..bachelor’s pad stereotype.
Are these guys being treated differently..are other inmates in same building..conditions are the same..same rules,etc.?
The DC jail even has copy of inmate handbook on website. Suggest people read it. You will learn a lot.
If they are being treated differently…they have a huge case.
That is the question people need to ask.
That is what journalists need to find out.
If people want to send letters or cards..call 202-523-7060 and get his ID number and correct address..pod,etc. DC jail is over 2 Thousand bed facility. Surprised he didn’t put his ID # in his letter. And we need to find out names and numbers of ALL of them! Holidays are horrible in jail/prison..the worst.
There is $75.00 limit on spending at DC jail at commissary. That is a LOT of honey buns and little Debbie’s! ..joke–because commissary food is mostly snack food. They don’t have kitchenette in their rooms. Not even a mini fridge…joke.
Again, prison and jails suck. Not a place anyone in their right mind would ever want to be!
I will donate to legal defense fund once I know a legitimate fund has been established.
They shouldn’t be in there in the first place.
Surely you jest.
Every prisoner is entitled to a Public Defender. Where are they? Why are the prisoners not out on bail?
It is time for President Trump to get involved.
I believe he will….in a very big way. I just hope and pray that help does not arrive too late for these patriots.
Their jailers must pay for this by literally trading places with their prisoners and having to suffer ALL OF THE ABUSE they have inflicted on these patriots.
how can we get this information out to the majority of the america public? what about the republican members of congress have any of them spoken out about this? and i don’t mean the one designated republican complainer. what about getting all 260+ to speak as a unified voice against what our government is doing. you know it it is because of trump that don’t say anything.
Unfortunately, the vast majority of “Republicans” in DC are UniParty.
Send a copy of this to your congressman and Senator and demand they personally go and investigate at the DC prison they are being held in. They should go unannounced and if they find evidence the charges are true they should make an immediate citizens arrest of the warden and guards involved and lock them up. Release the prisoners and take them to another state run jail (out of the Maryland, Virginia and DC area) for medical treatment, proper legal council, an independent legal review of the charges against them and trial for any valid charges within 6 months outside the DC area. Remember these prisoners have not been convicted of any crime,. The judges and prosecutors involved should be removed from office pending investigation for misconduct without pay. Congress does have the authority to stop paying these neo-Nazis. The Republicans should make it clear to the progressives any attempt to block this investigation will not be tolerated and they will be shut down with whatever force is required. It is time for the Republicans to man up and defend the Constitution and oppose tyranny in order to earn our votes and money in 2022. LETS GO BRANDON!!!!!
where is the link to donate to this guy’s commissary fund?
He can only spend 75.00 per week. Which is a LOT of money in jail.
Contact DC jail at 202-523-7060 and get his Inmate ID number and his location. Jail address on their website. You will need this even if sending card or letter. Without ID number will take forever for any type correspondence.
Also, they have have inmate handbook on their website. Interesting read.
Me. I will wait for legal defense fund.
Wondering if my return address would put me on a watch list!
Crazy ? times we live in!
If your are a true patriot you are already on their watch list
Nope…I stay under the radar.
Julie Kelly has been extensively covering the J6 protesters. On her twitter timeline today she links to a fund to help the detainees:
Julie has been a steadfast light in this monstrous darkness.
Every one …including Julie needs to download the Inmate handbook which is posted on DC jail website.
It explains how all inmates can file complaint with the prison system.
Page 10 explains the Inmate Grievance procedure..which must be answered within 5 days.
Page 11..
If not satisfactory to inmates they then have Formal Grievance Procedure. There is 15 day time limit on that.
Handbook should be read !
It covers everything from medical services to maintaining sanitation…like–inmates clogging toilets.. keeping room clean, noise,etc.
I would suggest talking to guards, explaining what this guy wrote…without mentioning any details about him and J6. And listen to what they say. Make him just an Inmate.
If they are being treated any differently from any other inmates…they have a case.
Priority should be legal fund for attorney.
Again…..cannot stress enough…read the Inmate handbook!
Both!
These people NEED commissary to make it to court! We’ve already lost one fine Patriot.
Commissary is used to buy snacks and other items when they don’t like the for example generic toothpaste given free to inmates.
75.00 is limit per week! That is a lot of money to buy honey buns and little Debbie’s. And Ramen soup.
Suggesting people sit back, get a grip …read the Inmate handbook posted on DC jail website.
Also, re read his letter.
Common sense. He states many inmates on anti depression and anti anxiety medication. Normal in prison/jails.
Then he complains he has to use shaving cream…they won’t give razors to shave!
Ok..here Mr. Inmate…you have your depression and anxiety meds….and you
have your razor also? COMMON SENSE!
And if inmates would stop flushing contraband…and just clogging toilets for fun and games…wouldn’t be a problem! Look in handbook…they even mention it!
Phone calls…Normal procedure. You have only so many verified and programmed numbers you can call. Duh . That is to keep victims from being threatened by inmates…and cuts down on deal making of cartels and Mafia!
Are the J6 prisoners being treated differently than other inmates?
Read the handbook..then read his letter again.
People should send money to a legitimate legal defense fund for ALL those that are there.
Commissary is that…food and hygiene products.
People are over reacting.
Over reacting to what, one inmate’s broken eye socket for trying to organize a bible study? Congressmen being denied to opportunity to meet with these people? Which violation of their constitutional rights merits your outrage?
The warden wipes his ass with the handbook, Pollyanna. These people are not being detained lawfully
It’s highly likely that the corrupt and paid-for polluted jailers will steal the money sent to the prisoners held as hostages by DoC and DoJ.
Highly unlikely.
Funds go to administrative section..
Guards have no access to money.
Now…DC administration..that may be corrupt…
My experience guards cannot even have more than 20.oo on them in cash when reporting for work.
Same with inmates…no cash. All done electronically.
that’s putting it lightl
THIS IS APPALLING. SINCE WHEN IS A CONGRESSMAN DENIED A VISIT TO A PRISONER, OF ANY KIND?? this should make every American angry. I KNOW I AM. VOTE ALL DEMOCRATS OUT. BRING AMERICA BACK TO ITS FORMER GLORY AND SANITY.
Thank you, Julie Kemp!
There’s a lot that is currently beyond our reach. But VOTE , we can and MUST DO!
Since we’ve become the USSR. We need to take our Country back…Whatever it takes…
Politacal prisoners are treated very badly in UK too. We can only expect it to get worse under global governance.
Declare the DemoncRAT party as inimical to the ideals of the Republic, and ban it under penalty of fine and imprisonment.
Marjorie Taylor Greene did go and visit them!
One thing that we can all do is get on the phone and call all of our house and senate representatives and demand that they do something now!!! Call, send emails and demand action if they want our votes. This is heartbreaking!
CLOWN WORLD 2021
“Burn the circus down”
Many memorable lines in this great video, and, when we take into account its intended, youth audience, I believe it is very well done. As a matter of fact, I think it’s sensational!
The rawness of this vid may put off many from our own demographic in that this particular youth culture has, against everybody’s best judgement, gone down a path of self-destruction for at least the last forty years. However, vids like this can rescue many and can better explain in their terms the confusing mess that currently engulfs us all.
When the eye of the storm hits, it will hit the youth the hardest. We, who stand on the political right, have been expecting it for decades; but the young and the naive believed AND INTERNALIZED all the lies we knew were lies.
This vid is an effective short- cut to understanding the unexplainable, and does so very skillfully.
That’s a hideous video. I’m supposed to take this freak seriously?
