DOJ Claimed Kamala Harris and VP Pence Were in the Capitol on Jan 6 During the So-Called Riots – It Turns Out that Likely Neither Was the Case

The DOJ claimed both future VP Harris and then-current VP Pence were in the Capitol during the US Capitol protests and riot. It turns out this was false.

The DOJ made numerous claims in their false charges against Trump supporters for their actions on Jan 6.  One claim used frequently by the DOJ is that Biden’s VP Kamala Harris and  VP Mike Pence were located in the Capitol at that time.  But is  this true?

A mother of one of the attendees of the event who was charged by the DOJ with a felony laid out a number of issues with the government’s case.

One item noted in the above article is that neither Harris or Pence were at the Capitol during a critical time period.

7. Unjust Felony Charge (1512 a to c)

More than 100 defendants have been given the 1512 felony charge that could potentially lend them in jail for many years as the maximum sentence is up to 20 years of jail time. However, this charge is inaccurate, as no Congressional Session was being held but it appears now that neither of the two Primary members, Kamala and Pence, were actually at the Capitol. They had been evacuated from the grounds due to the pipe bomb discorvered at the DNC and RNC. Harris was at the DNC and Pence left around 1:40, so neither were present. It is to be noted that this charge was leveled originally against Enron employees who destroyed evidence as hearings were occurring in DC.

Far-left Politico is finally catching up to this issue.  In a report yesterday Politico says:

Earlier versions of the charge against Griffin erroneously indicated that then-Vice President-elect Kamala Harris — another Secret Service protectee — was on Capitol Grounds during the riot.

But prosecutors have acknowledged their initial contention was erroneous, and POLITICO since revealed that Harris was blocks away at the offices of the Democratic National Committee when the mob overran the building. There, she was evacuated after authorities discovered a pipe bomb outside. Prosecutors have subsequently removed language related to Harris from hundreds of Capitol riot indictments.

McFadden hammered on that point in his order.

“The Government has never explained how it got such a basic fact so wrong for so long,” he said. “Presumably, it was relying on representations—and in felony cases, grand jury testimony—of Secret Service personnel. Given all that, Griffin may probe the Government’s evidence as to the location of Vice President Pence.”

In upcoming cases, the whereabouts of VP Pence on Jan 6 are now in question.  The Secret Service doesn’t want to say where he was but if he was offsite and not even in the Capitol we will know that the corrupt DOJ will have misrepresented where both Harris and Pence were on Jan 6.
