DOJ Scrubs January 6 Press Releases, Calls Them "Partisan Propaganda"

The Trump Justice Department removed hundreds of press releases documenting the charges, convictions, and sentencings of January 6 Capitol riot defendants from its official website on May 23, 2026, with the DOJ defending the purge as "stripping DOJ's website of partisan propaganda."

“Nothing 'quiet' about it. We are proud to reverse the DOJ's weaponization under the Biden administration. We will do everything in our power to make whole those who were persecuted for political purposes. This includes stripping DOJ's website of partisan propaganda.”
