Garland confirms no on[e] who participated in January 6th has been charged with insurrection.

Or rather, he sort of confirms it:

But, when asked by Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) if any of the individuals who have been arrested for participating in the riot have been charged with “insurrection,” Garland told him “I don’t believe so.”

“Has any defendant involved in the January 6th events been charged with insurrection?” Gohmert asked.

“I don’t believe so,” Garland responded.

Garland is the AG of the United States, the head of the DOJ. He doesn’t “believe so”? He’s not sure? He hasn’t made it his business to know?

The question he was asked was not a deep philosophical one, it was a factual either/or. The answer is “no, no one been charged with insurrection – even though we would dearly love to do so – because we lack evidence for a charge of insurrection.”

But he couldn’t even find it in his heart to say that.
