J6'ers have been counting on Trump pardons and payoffs since 11/03/24

VAN HOLLEN: An individual who was pardoned by Trump went on to molest two children, and he tried to buy their silence by saying he would give them funds from your slush fund. Can you commit to not making that person eligible for a payout?
BLANCHE: You're obviously lying in your question
VAN HOLLEN: I am reporting what he said

The Capitol Rioters Are Free But Ed Martins Crusade Against Jan. 6 Prosecutors Is Just Getting Started
Ed Martin, as interim head of the federal prosecutors office in Washington, fired around 30 government attorneys who had been hired to work on January 6 cases.
Finally, the circumstances of the conversions are the subject of an ongoing inquiry at the Justice Department including pursuant to President Trumps January 20, 2025 Executive Order entitled, Ending The Weaponization Of The Federal Government, said the section of Boves memo cited by Martin. Please take all steps necessary to preserve all records, including documents, emails, text messages, and other electronic communications, relating to the conversions and other personnel decisions regarding attorneys hired to support casework relating to events that occurred at or near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021.
Martin explained in a June 2024 episode of the Tea Party Power Hour podcast that January 6 defendants should be actually revered. He said he hopes in the future that they will be recognized as a pawn in a bitter struggle between forces of darkness for our country, and therefore we will remember you with a certain fondness. And we help you get jobs, and we help your kids go to college, and we help your family recover.
We have to find & throw in jail the person in Bidens Administration who ordered the 1512(c) prosecutions of peaceful J6 defendants, he tweeted in December 2023, referring to a statute used in many January 6 cases.
I want reparations for the January 6 defendants. They were pawns of a government scheme, Martin continued. I think that these families should be protected, they should be honored.
