Democrats for years now have claimed that the Jan. 6, 2021, protest-turned-riot at the U.S. Capitol was a full-fledged "insurrection."
That would include plans by the rioters to seize the government, its economy, its military, is executive branch, its legislature, its courts and international relations.
RFK Jr. notes protesters 'had no plans or ability to seize the reins of government'.
"I have not examined the evidence in detail, but reasonable people, including Trump opponents, tell me there is little evidence of a true insurrection. They observe that the protestors carried no weapons, had no plans or ability to seize the reins of government, and that Trump himself had urged them to protest 'peacefully,'" he said.
But he does have concern for how Joe Biden and his appointees have manipulated the situation.
"Like many reasonable Americans, I am concerned about the possibility that political objectives motivated the vigor of the prosecution of the J6 defendants, their long sentences, and their harsh treatment. That would fit a disturbing pattern of the weaponization of government agencies — the DoJ, the IRS, the SEC, the FBI, etc. — against political opponents," he warned.
He said political opponents in America should be defeated "at the ballot box," rather than through "legal maneuvers and dirty tricks."
In fact, Democrats have launched a multitude of criminal charges, often on the shakiest of foundations, against President Trump, trying to hamstring his 2024 presidential campaign.
Kennedy said political parties now appear to be campaigning "on the demonization of their opponents and all who support them."
