The White House has officially launched a dedicated website at whitehouse.gov/j6/ to commemorate January 6, 2021, as “a date which will live in infamy,” highlighting President Trump’s issuance of blanket pardons and commutations for individuals involved in the Capitol events. The site frames the day as a tragedy resulting from political failures, security lapses, and a weaponized justice system that targeted peaceful protesters, leading to the exoneration of nearly 1,600 defendants through immediate releases and dismissal of charges. This initiative, announced on January 6, 2026, positions the pardons as a step toward national reconciliation, ending what is described as a four-year injustice perpetrated against patriotic Americans who were prosecuted for exercising their First Amendment rights.

The website reveals what it presents as the unvarnished truth of January 6, drawing from the U.S. House Interim Report to expose Democratic leadership’s role in security failures, such as ignoring offers for National Guard deployment and politicizing Capitol defenses, which contributed to the chaos. It accuses politicians, including Nancy Pelosi, and legacy media of orchestrating a cover-up through biased investigations like the House Select Committee, which allegedly deleted vast amounts of data, coached witnesses, and crafted false narratives to label the events as a Trump-incited insurrection aimed at blocking his reelection. Additional reports from the Department of Justice Office of Inspector General are cited to underscore FBI intelligence shortcomings and the presence of unprosecuted confidential sources, portraying these as evidence of a manipulated story that criminalized ordinary citizens while concealing systemic betrayals.

Central to the site is a section honoring the “J6ers who were lost,” commemorating nine individuals who died either on January 6 or in the aftermath through suicides amid persecution, including Ashli Babbitt, Rosanne Boyland, and Matthew Perna, described as “beautiful and courageous souls” sacrificed for protesting a stolen election. This memorial emphasizes the human toll of the events and subsequent legal actions, framing their deaths as outcomes of merciless targeting rather than violence, and serves as a call to restore public trust by acknowledging the peaceful intent of the protestors. Overall, the platform stands as a corrective to what it deems partisan distortions, promoting a narrative of exoneration and remembrance.
