Bedminster Bash will Celebrate Trump Insurrectionists

Quote:
This seems like a spoof, but it’s apparently real.

Trump National in Bedminster will host an “awards gala” to benefit January 6 defendants on Sept. 5. Those inclined to catch the action live can do so for $1,500 on up to $30,000 for a table of 12.

This is how a promo for the event describes it:

“Join us for an unforgettable evening at the J6 Awards Gala, where we will honor and celebrate the twenty defendants who contributed to the powerful ‘Justice For All’ song. Released on March 3, 2023, this song quickly went Platinum, thanks to your unwavering support. Now …. we gather to pay tribute not only to these individuals but to all J6 defendants who have shown incredible courage and sacrifice.”

The song in question is a rendition of the national anthem by about 20 Jan. 6 defendants as Donald Trump says the Pledge of Allegiance. Money raised at the event “will provide much-needed assistance to the January 6th defendants who continue to face significant challenges.”

No question about that. Many are in prison or awaiting trial.

Reports say Trump will not be at the event. However, the promo says the former president is an invited speaker.

Trump has often spoken favorably about the individuals who stormed the Capitol, at times suggesting he would pardon them if he is elected president. Others in the MAGA movement like calling them political prisoners.
