Sorry but this is horseshit. The federal government goes with heavy handed charges all the time. People who were merely in the vicinity of people causing trouble during the inauguration faced 60 years in prison.

If these were Muslims or black protestors, not only would a lot of them be dead, but every person who stepped into the Capitol would have been charged with felony murder.

The DOJ went soft on these people, including the organizers who have not faced any legal consequences. Five people died, others were injured, millions in damages, and pipebombs found. Next to no serious charges filed and I doubt any suspects see more than a couple years behind bars.
