US Attorney Matthew Graves warned last week his office would hunt down Americans who stood on government property on January 6. But recent court activity could shut down his latest crusade of terror.
In a brazen act of political theater worthy of an ethics investigation, U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Matthew Graves gave an hour long rehash of the events of January 6 to a handful of reporters last week. Graves, a Biden 2020 campaign advisor who was appointed by Biden in November 2021, is overseeing the Department of Justice’s unprecedented and ongoing criminal investigation into the four-hour disturbance that has so far resulted in the arrest of more than 1,200 Americans.
Acting more like a partisan member of the January 6 Select Committee than an unbiased government prosecutor, Graves used inflammatory, and in some instances inaccurate, language to describe what happened that afternoon and his office’s continued pursuit of the perpetrators.
Of course, evidence and the law matter little to Graves, the DOJ at large, and most D.C. judges. Graves accomplished his mission of accelerating the government’s campaign of fear related to January 6 and its relentless criminalization of political activity.
