This was an effort to push the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/are-covid-case-surges-more-fake-news\/\" title=\"Are COVID Case Surges More Fake News?\">false narrative<\/a> that January 6 was an &#8220;insurrection&#8221; and justify\u200c the ongoing\u2063 investigation and prosecution of nonviolent protesters by the Biden Department of Justice.<\/p>\n<p>Refusing to take the \u2062bait, \u200cStefanik responded by calling out NBC and the biased media for playing only a selective\u200d excerpt of her speech. She\u2064 condemned the violence of both the January 6 protest\u2064 and the\u2064 Black Lives Matter riots, while \u2063also emphasizing the importance of election integrity\u200d and the security of our \u200cdemocracy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>[Read:[Read:<a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/01\/10\/americas-justice-system-says-jan-6-was-neither-a-terrorist-attack-nor-an-insurrection\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">America&#8217;s Justice System Says Jan. 6 Was Neither A Terrorist Attack Nor An Insurrection<\/a>]<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Stefanik also\u2062 expressed her concerns about the treatment of\u2063 January 6 detainees \u200dand the weaponization of the federal government against conservatives, including President Trump. Peaceful protesters, traditional Catholics, pro-lifers, and Trump supporters have all become targets of the Biden DOJ for exercising their First\u2062 Amendment rights.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That&#8217;s why I&#8217;m proud to serve on the Select Committee on the\u200b Weaponization of the Government,&#8221; Stefanik stated. &#8220;The American \u200dpeople\u200d want answers and\u2062 transparency. They see the double standards in this country, where the rules are \u2062different for the\u2064 Clintons, Bidens, and everyday patriotic Americans.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Stefanik added, &#8220;The real threat to our democracy\u200d is these baseless witch hunt investigations and lawsuits against President \u2064Trump. It&#8217;s undemocratic and it&#8217;s shredding our Constitution. And you know who\u2063 agrees \u2062with me, Kristen? The American people. That&#8217;s why President Trump is winning in poll after poll\u200d against Joe Biden.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Welker also tried to corner Stefanik by asking if she would vote to certify the results of the\u2064 2024 election \u200cno matter \u2064what they show. Stefanik, once again, refused to fall into the trap and simply stated, &#8220;We will see if this is a legal and \u2064valid election.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This response has been twisted by the corporate media to falsely portray Stefanik as anti-democratic.\u2064 It seems that\u2062 Welker and her \u2062media colleagues fail \u2063to understand the purpose \u200cof certifying\u2064 a presidential election, which is to ensure \u2064the integrity of the electoral process. Representatives should not commit to \u2062certifying or not certifying an election until \u200cit has \u200ctaken place and been conducted lawfully.<\/p>\n<p>Importantly, Stefanik highlighted the fact that \u200bDemocrats\u2064 are already interfering in the\u2062 2024 \u2064election through various\u200c means. &#8220;So far, we&#8217;re \u2062seeing Democrats so desperate\u2062 that they&#8217;re trying to remove President\u2062 Trump \u200dfrom the ballot. That is \u2063a suppression of the \u2062American people,&#8221; Stefanik emphasized.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>Evita Duffy-Alfonso is a staff writer for The Federalist and co-founder\u200c of the Chicago \u2062Thinker.
