The prosecution of individuals related to January 6th is a politically motivated effort to target and make examples of dissenters, particularly those who spoke publicly.

“They're hoping that enough people out there say, "Oh, no, no, no, I'm not one of those people." When there were hundreds of thousands of people there January 6th who didn't didn't so much as as litter.”

The criminal charges against him for January 6th are essentially a political attempt to criminalize his speech rather than punish him for any illegal physical actions.

“I didn't do anything that day, but what I said is what is being criminalized. So they're obviously listening to my show every day. I guess I was a little tickled by that. They proved that in their sentencing memo, but we've never seen this before, criminalizing speech.”
