Summary

The Justice Department is making headlines by removing news releases about January 6th Capitol riot prosecutions from their website, including charges and convictions. This move comes after announcing a $1.776 billion fund to compensate those who believe they were wrongly investigated or prosecuted, potentially including those convicted of violence. The administration aims to reverse what they call the weaponization of the Justice Department under the previous administration and reshape the narrative around the Capitol events.
