Yes. You read that right. Johnson is saying that he is intentionally hiding insurrectionists from prosecution in the release of tapes that Republicans claim will vindicate them on January 6th.

        Bullets are expensive. Just rebuild the gallows they assembled.

        Public hangings go a long way to deter treason.
        I draw that conclusion from the lack of hangings and correlative increase in treason.

          They were never going to hang someone from those gallows. They were shoddy work, would have collapsed if they tried. They would have had to execute people some other way if they’d won.
