Vice President JD Vance, in a recent interview, advocated for pardons for certain individuals charged in relation to the January 6 protests, asserting that a distinction should be made between those who protested peacefully and those who engaged in violence. He criticized the Department of Justice, claiming there was a lack of due process for many defendants and highlighting perceived double standards in sentencing. Vance noted that former President Trump intended to review cases individually, yet supported the idea of blanket pardons for many, despite some engaging in violence against law enforcement.
Margaret, I noticed that you cut off the thing that I said immediately after that, Vance replied. The full quote is that, of course, there are gray areas.
The thing that came out of it, Margaret, is that there was a massive denial of due process of liberty, and a lot of people were denied their constitutional rights.
