Jan 6 must be fully & conclusively adjudicated in a court of law if this country is to ever move forward.

They can't just wish it away unless we let them.
Though the Justice Dept has deleted information about its Jan 6 prosecutions from its website, a federal judge has issued an order listing and chronicling all of the cases and prison terms

It is a crime. But we have no law enforcement agency anymore.
It’s pretty insane that a private citizen can come in, hijack federal government servers, fire people, and steal their PII.
