‘It’s Very Frustrating’: Litman on Jan. 6 Lower Level Criminal Prosecutions ‘Disparity’
EXCERPT:
LITMAN: “I mean, it’s something, but I think it’s little more than that. Because already in the Georgia probe, you know, Georgia prosecutors had already subpoenaed and gotten Senator Lindsay Graham to testify. The Supreme Court didn’t allow him to block the subpoena. And yet, still, that proceeding has not actually resulted in any real accountability for some of the higher-up political officials who are behind the instigations to actually pervert legal processes to do the same things that the rioters at the Capitol were doing, interfering with the peaceful transition of power. So it’s very frustrating, I think, to watch the disparity in the lower level criminal prosecutions related to January 6th while seeing the political officials, again, using political and perverted legal means accomplish the same end, and largely skate by with no accountability thus far.”
