Pardoned Jan. 6 rioter Jake Lang has been charged with making threatening statements about one of the officers he faced off with at the U.S. Capitol
Lang was seen on camera at a Jan. 6 fifth-anniversary event this year, telling Metropolitan Police Cmdr. Jason Bagshaw that he should be “put down like a dead dog” and “hung” in front of the Capitol.

Do people typically “put down” already dead animals or is he using the other form meaning “to insult?”
He is an idiot. Stop trying to rationalize what he says.
Moron received a get-out-of-jail-free card and threw it away. Moron.
It’s just a misdemeanor tho. A fine, possibly community service at most.
Lang, a white supremacist and pro-Trump influencer, was among the more than 1,500 Jan. 6 defendants Trump pardoned upon his return to office in January 2025. Lang’s actions at the Capitol were extensively documented in cellphone, body camera and CCTV video. He bragged about his actions on Instagram, calling the mob “an organized unit of patriots trying to take on tyrants.”
While Lang was one of just a handful of rioters held in pretrial detentionbecause of what a Trump-appointed judge called the “very strong” evidence against him, along with his “overt expressions of willingness to use violence in the future,” he was not convicted, and his trial did not happen before Trump pardoned him.
What an outstanding human.
Almost like he should have never been pardoned at all
I don’t get it. Shooting pepper balls at anti-ICE protesters is A-ok, but just threatening police is a no-no. Guess it goes to show who happens to be in charge.
Isn’t this the same lil bitch who got pelted with ice and cold water when he tried to ‘counterprotest’ in MIN?
Seems like FAFO doesn’t recognize party lines.
He sure wasn’t talking all this fake tough guy shit in Minneapolis. Chud was pissing his pants and begging for his life while an angry mob surrounded him within minutes of announcing his fascist presence. Personally, I think the screenshot of him catching a boot to the face when he tried to flee in an Uber would have been perfect for this article.
Send him to Iran
