Two Trump-appointed federal judges have rejected claims from January 6 defendants that they're being treated unfairly because of their conservative politics
Judge Trevor McFadden on Tuesday became the second judge in two weeks to reject the comparisons, which are popular in right-wing circles, after his colleague in Washington, DC's, federal court Carl Nichols made a similar ruling last week.McFadden and Nichols both said the US Capitol riot defendants' arguments didn't have enough evidence to show discrimination.
Nichols, weighing the case against another January 6 defendant, Garrett Miller, said on December 21 that the unrest in the two cities had"obvious differences" and the disruptions put hundreds of government officials at risk. "The Portland rioters' conduct, while obviously serious, did not target a proceeding prescribed by the Constitution and established to ensure a peaceful transition of power," Nichols wrote.
