Around 20 inmates were being held at the time, awaiting trial for a variety of violent crimes.
Republican congress members treated the prisoners like celebrities, rather than people who attacked our capitol police and our very democracy.
Many are now serving long sentences.

4 years ago a mob incited by Donald Trump attacked the Capitol to overturn the election.
Now, Trump wants to pardon these insurrectionists.
In 2023, I visited these prisoners at the DC jail on behalf of the Dems on the Oversight Committee. Marjorie Taylor Greene was there.
Here's what happened: 🧵
Great to hear the Social Security Fairness Act was signed into law by POTUS, extending benefits to 3 million retirees. This includes millions of police officers, firefighters, and teachers across the country. I was proud to co-sponsor this legislation.
Why does Trump and Elon Musk want to eliminate the debt limit? Because they want to give huge tax breaks and cuts to themselves and their billionaire friends by redistributing hard earned income from working class folks. We can stop this.q
Let’s be clear: Elon Musk controls the Republican Party.
Bi-partisanship to House Republicans means they get everything they want - and we get nothing. They want to cut healthcare, the social safety net, and seperate familes. We need to fight like hell in Congress.
Like I have said before, working with Elon and his enablers will lead to the destruction of the social safety net. He wants to cut hard earned benefits so he can enrich his friends with tax cuts. We should NOT work with him.
House Republicans are a mess.
On the House floor and Johnson is going to lose this vote on this round.
No Dems are going to save him. 💅🏽
Under absolutely no circumstances will I vote to save Mike Johnson or any other Republican for Speaker.
She won’t.
This all makes sense. And thanks for your strong voice here on this platform.
Done! Glad you are here.
Agree that we need to remember that this is a bar fight, holding hands and hoping things get better is not a strategy.
It’s a fear I have also but I think We can stop them on this issue.
Agree with this.
Never would. As one of the few LGBTQ+ members of congress this is really important to me.
