Emails Show Biden DOJ Officials Scheming to Contrive Any Charges They Could Against Trump, Even Attempting to Prosecute Him for... Appearing on the J6 Prisoner's Protest Song

Democrats totally support everyone's right to protest, right?

And not just their violent transgender street revolutionaries, right?

Internal FBI emails reveal that rogue agents and prosecutors in the Biden DOJ were looking for ways to pile on new criminal charges against Donald Trump over the Jan. 6 Capitol riot -- this time over his involvement with the J6 prisoner choir, based on a single partisan news article.

The 2023 emails obtained by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) and revealed exclusively to The Post are an example of the nitpicking malice of anti-Trump lawfare that tainted special counsel Jack Smith's investigation, during Joe Biden's presidency.

Cooney was a deputy special counsel who worked on both the Robert Mueller and Smith get-Trump special counsel investigations.

"According to this Forbes article, Trump recorded the Pledge of Allegiance at MAL [Mar a Lago] and Kash Patel [now FBI director] and Ed Henry [a former Fox News host] were also involved," Cooney wrote in the email chain.

He recorded the Pledge of Allegiance with some political prisoners. Quick, let's charge him with conspiracy to sing.

"The profits are routed to an LLC run by Henry, and proceeds are intended for families of incarcerated J6 defendants -- but there is apparently a vetting process that excludes families of defendants who assaulted police officers.

"I asked Ahmed [likely prosecutor Ahmed Baset, who was fired earlier this month] to preserve this last night. I'll talk to Maria/Erin and Julia about doing some follow up here to nail down Trump's role."

Cooney also instructed colleagues to look at starting "some process on Ed Henry's LLC," presumably a legal process such as a subpoena, search warrant or other court-authorized actions to gather evidence.

His email was forwarded to eight agents and DOJ staff, including notorious anti-Trump FBI Special Agent Walter Giardina, who responded two days later to say he was investigating the claims in the Forbes article about Trump and the J6 prisoner choir: "Esther and I are working on this today. We're going to put together our findings at 2 and get something to you shortly after that."

Giardina was "Agent Zero" in a lot of overzealous FBI actions involving Trump and his allies, including the investigation of Trump White House adviser Dr. Peter Navarro on contempt of Congress charges for refusing to appear before the House committee investigating the J6 riot.

It was Giardina's FBI team that arrested Navarro as he was about to board a plane at Reagan National Airport in 2022, put him in leg irons and threw him in jail instead of simply issuing a summons for him to come to court, as the federal judge overseeing the case later said while criticizing the heavy-handedness.

Meanwhile, Democrats cry when they're arrested for charging at a female cabinet secretary.
