This was the scene about an hour ago in Washington D.C. to "free political prisoners" outside of the DC correctional facility that is holding the Jan 6 insurrectionists.

where's the intrepid reporter to ask them how people who violently attacked law enforcement, resulting in seven deaths, are "political prisoners"?

The new narrative is that they were peacefully protesting patriots who are being held as political prisoners.

It's hard for sane people to keep up.
