On this day in 2013, a group of elderly protesters took to the streets of Washington, D.C. to protest the lack of a fair trial for a police officer who shot and killed an Air Force veteran on Capitol Hill. Three years later, that officer, Russell Alfred, was sentenced to a year in prison for simply being part of the crowd and for four misdemeanors. Our guest today, Jake Lang, comes to us from his prison cell.

00:00:00.000 I'm Lou Dobbs with The Great America Show, midday update for January 6th.
00:00:05.120 An exchange of artillery fire on the Korean Peninsula,
00:00:08.220 then after North Korea's Kim Jong-un shelled disputed territory in South Korea,
00:00:13.440 prompting a return of fire by the Republic of Korea.
00:00:16.980 A lot happening on this, the third year anniversary of the January 6th Capitol Hill demonstrations and riot.
00:00:24.200 Judicial Watch, on behalf of January 6th protester Ashley Babbitt,
00:00:29.120 filing a $30 million wrongful death and negligence lawsuit against the federal government
00:00:35.740 over the Capitol Hill police shooting of the Air Force veteran.
00:00:40.620 The lawsuit claims her killer, Capitol Police Lieutenant Michael Byrd,
00:00:45.340 had a record of incompetence, revocations of his firearm privileges for prior dangerous incidents,
00:00:52.600 including unjustified firing of his handgun,
00:00:55.520 leaving his pistol in a public bathroom,
00:00:58.660 had his police power suspended more than once for failing to keep up with his firearm proficiency training.
00:01:06.600 The corrupt D.C. federal courts claiming now that even passive conduct by those January 6th protesters
00:01:13.220 can be considered disorderly conduct.
00:01:16.520 That makes sense, doesn't it, in this Orwellian Biden age?
00:01:20.060 D.C. appellate court judge Karen LaCraft Henderson ruled that even though the protester,
00:01:27.280 Russell Alfred, was admittedly neither violent nor destructive,
00:01:31.720 that he could be guilty of disorderly conduct.
00:01:34.600 And the appellate judge refused to overturn his one-year prison sentence
00:01:39.280 for simply being part of the crowd and for four misdemeanors.
00:01:43.880 This is outrageous, and the Marxist-dimmed judiciary in this country
00:01:48.160 has to be held accountable for their savage abuse of power against American citizens.
00:01:54.100 Our guest today on The Great America Show is one of those citizens who's been a victim,
00:01:59.600 who's been imprisoned in the D.C. gulag without trial,
00:02:03.360 without even a setting of a trial date,
00:02:06.320 because he protected elderly protesters from harm
00:02:09.640 in the midst of those Capitol Hill riots three years ago today.
00:02:14.680 Our guest is Jake Lang.
00:02:16.600 He comes to us from his prison cell.
00:02:19.060 Please join us.
00:02:20.360 This is Lou Dobbs with The Great America Update.
00:02:23.300 Thank you, and have a great day.
