The Guy Who Wanted to "Kill 'Em" Now Works at the Department of Justice. No, Seriously.

The Guy Who Wanted to "Kill 'Em" Now Works at the Department of Justice. No, Seriously.

Alright, deep breaths, everyone.

You know that thing in a movie where the plot gets so ridiculous you almost walk out? Like when the pyromaniac is suddenly appointed Fire Chief, or the wolf gets a job designing security for the henhouse?

Well, on Thursday, August 7, 2025, American politics apparently said, "Hold my beer."

The new administration has hired a man named Jared Lane Wise as a senior adviser.

At the Department. Of. Justice.

Yes, that Jared Lane Wise. The January 6 rioter. The one who was on trial for helpfully suggesting to the mob that they "kill 'em" while they were, you know, attacking police officers. That guy now has a government email address and a parking spot.

And how did the DOJ—again, the DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE—defend this truly inspired personnel decision? Oh, with a statement so perfectly corporate and soulless it could have been written by the Roomba that vacuums their lobby.

They called him a "valued member."

They said they "appreciate his contributions."

Contributions? To what? His stunning G-sharp performance of screaming "Nazis" and "Gestapo" at law enforcement? Is there a bonus for that? This isn't just a bad hire; it's a mission statement printed on official letterhead.

So you have to ask yourself: why? Why do this? Why hire the one guy guaranteed to make every single FBI agent and federal prosecutor in the country stare into the mirror and wonder where it all went wrong?

It’s simple, really. It’s a giant, flashing middle finger to the entire concept of the rule of law. And it’s a roaring thumbs-up to their most extreme supporters.

The message is crystal clear: "Go ahead, commit crimes for our cause. Not only will there be no consequences, but there might just be a corner office and a government pension waiting for you on the other side."

They’re not just rewriting history anymore. They’re giving the vandals a fresh coat of paint, the keys to the museum, and a seat on the acquisitions board.

Look, this is the logical endpoint of a long, exhausting journey. First, the rioters were just "peaceful tourists." Then they were "patriots." Then they were pardoned political prisoners.

And now? Now they get a 401(k) and a senior advisory role shaping the American legal system.

This isn't politics. This is a demolition project. It is a deliberate, cynical, and open mockery of everything the DOJ is supposed to stand for. The whole point is to make this brand of insanity feel normal—to exhaust us into submission.

Our only job is to refuse. To keep pointing at the arsonist wearing the fire chief's hat and yelling about the fire until someone, anyone, finally takes away his matches.
