Raheem Kassam, Editor-in-Chief of The National Pulse, has given a withering assessment of the Joe Biden regime’s conviction of Rebecca Lavrenz, a 71-year-old great-grandmother who briefly prayed inside the U.S. Capitol on January 6.
“This is really one of the most critical, most pertinent, and most poignant examples you can give of the Biden regime’s persecution of ordinary Americans,” Kassam told former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon on War Room, describing the details of Lavrenz’s case as “harrowing.”
“The federal agents turn up at her house, they put her in chains… the stomach chains, and the ankle chains. She’s 71 years old, poses no threat to anyone,” he said, accusing the authorities of “making an unnecessary example of her.”
“You know who doesn’t want to make an example of her? It’s the mainstream media; it’s the corporate media. They understand in their hearts that this is a jumping of the shark moment,” he continued.
Kassam also had harsh words for Karl Rove, a donor class RINO who has cheered the prosecutions of January 6 protestors.
“Look at what Karl Rove is saying out there… how [the protestors] should be in jail. Karl Rove should be in jail, frankly, for the war crimes he helped facilitate,” Kassam said, referring to Rove’s role in George W. Bush’s Iraq war.
Kassam concluded by stressing that the U.S. Capitol is, ultimately, a public building, with broad public access much of the time – yet on January 6 “they decided hey, we’re going to trick these people into walking in here, and the Biden regime’s going to prosecute them on the way out.”
“It’s disgusting… and I think there is a righteous indignation to be had here like no other before,” he concluded.
Speaking out against the conviction of the 'J6 Praying Grandma,' @RaheemKassam says it is war hawks like Karl Rove who belong in prison, not patriots like Rebecca Lavrenz. pic.twitter.com/lCYS4zNX05
