Speaker 1: Billy Cunningham, the great American, as you know, the President
Speaker 1: on Monday pardoned or commuted the sentences of large numbers
Speaker 1: of January sixth to protesters.
Speaker 2: One of them was Jake Lang.
Speaker 1: Jake Lang has just gotten out of jail, and Jake Lang,
Speaker 1: welcome to the Bill Cunningham Show. And first of all,
Speaker 1: where are you now and what are you doing?
Speaker 3: Well? I just finished a beautiful brunch with my fiance
Speaker 3: in a hotel room in Washington, d C. The swamp
Speaker 3: looks a little bit different from the other side of
Speaker 3: the fence. I have to tell you, guys. One four
Speaker 3: hundred and sixty six days a political prisoner, a hostage
Speaker 3: of the Biden regime, four years, four days without a trial,
Speaker 3: liberated by President Trump, by the strong arm of God.
Speaker 3: We have seen a deliverance in this country that rivals
Speaker 3: I think anything in American history.
Speaker 1: Jake Lang, you've you spent four four years and four
Speaker 1: days without a trial. Were you in the Washington DC
Speaker 1: City jail? Is that where you were?
Speaker 3: I spent over two years there and I've been moved
Speaker 3: seventeen times. I've been in Oklahoma prisons, in Oklahoma, in Virginia,
Speaker 3: in Pennsylvania, in New York, you name it. They have
Speaker 3: shipped me there and tortured me in every facility in
Speaker 3: the East coast back practically.
Speaker 1: How were you treated in these prison facilities by the guards.
Speaker 3: Well, just like anywhere, you'll get a couple of Maga,
Speaker 3: you know, a couple of Blue Line, you know, real conservatives.
Speaker 3: But it tends that they put me in places like
Speaker 3: I mean, Brooklyn, New York is a liberal strongholds, like
Speaker 3: the home of Antifa. And actually one of the Capitol
Speaker 3: police officers, Ganell, they called him the prostitute for the
Speaker 3: prosecutors because he showed up at every single jam six
Speaker 3: trial and just lied on whoever was being slaughtered in
Speaker 3: the courtroom, saying that he saw this. He saw that
Speaker 3: Gannell had put out a tweet when I was in
Speaker 3: Brooklyn Federal Prison saying that he hopes Antifa finds me
Speaker 3: there and deals with me. Threatened my life and so
Speaker 3: you know, you're we're dealing with really really disgusting people.
Speaker 3: The prison guards. I've had some that have been a
Speaker 3: Christian brothers and mentors, and I've had some that have
Speaker 3: been my tormentors and tortures opening up my cell door
Speaker 3: while I'm doing Bible study and unloading a can of
Speaker 3: Mason to my eyes, so you know, we're we're dealing
Speaker 3: with h and that was the majority in the DC
Speaker 3: Gulag especially. They used to taunt us by wearing like
Speaker 3: Black Lives Matter and Kamala Harris gear like while they
Speaker 3: were working into the unit to kind of let us
Speaker 3: know who they were. And you know, they would constantly
Speaker 3: lock down our unit and strip search us and you know,
Speaker 3: withhold us from our rights to go outside and get sunshine.
Speaker 3: And so we have been through the ringer. I'm about
Speaker 3: to tell your audience something that's gonna infuriate people. Done
Speaker 3: on the nine hundred days of Solitary Confinement bill.
Speaker 1: You spent nine which is close to three years, nine
Speaker 1: hundred days in solitary confinement for what.
Speaker 3: Well, the first year we were incarcerated, they had the
Speaker 3: COVID scam going on in twenty twenty one, so we
Speaker 3: were in ourselves twenty three hours a day, no family visitation,
Speaker 3: no haircuts, no shaves, all under the guise of trying
Speaker 3: to keep us safe, I mean, keep us safe from one.
Speaker 3: I mean people were becoming mentally deranged inside their prison
Speaker 3: cells with no access to the outside world, to human connection,
Speaker 3: to fellowship in the Christian Bible studies. We had nothing.
Speaker 3: We didn't even have tablets in our cells that can
Speaker 3: make phone calls. We were just literally animals get walked
Speaker 3: once a day, you know. Even then abandoned dog in
Speaker 3: a pound gets out of the cage once a day
Speaker 3: to go on a walk. I spent years inside cells
Speaker 3: without leaving, and other than the COVID scam, the other
Speaker 3: almost you know, two years of solitary were because of
Speaker 3: interviews like this that I was doing for my prison
Speaker 3: cell that would find out that we were speaking out
Speaker 3: against the oppression, against the torture, against the cruel and
Speaker 3: unusual and constitutional punishment, and then they would come and
Speaker 3: try to shut down our voices. And that's why they
Speaker 3: moved me so much, and that's why they put me
Speaker 3: in solitary, thinking they could stop God's movement to reclaim
Speaker 3: his country. And they were very, very wrong. My same
Speaker 3: people they slammed the door on my face and pepper
Speaker 3: sprayed me and treated me like a like an animal,
Speaker 3: are the same people that had to open the door
Speaker 3: for me. Just yesterday at eight pm when I left prison.
Speaker 1: Jack Glang, what physical or mental conditions. Did the federal
Speaker 1: government cause in you now? Number one is a lawsuit
Speaker 1: I assume is coming at some point. But at this point,
Speaker 1: what is your physical and emotional state?
Speaker 3: Well, you know, we've been relying upon God from day one,
Speaker 3: and so my physical and my emotional state had been
Speaker 3: bolstered by my spiritual state. Right, you have to go
Speaker 3: upstream from everything, and so when you have a faith
Speaker 3: in God, that's unbreakable and unshakable because his promises are
Speaker 3: yes and amen. He is a faithful God that always
Speaker 3: comes through. His word, goes out from him and never
Speaker 3: returns void. He is, you know, the one who started
Speaker 3: to work in me, and he's going to bring it
Speaker 3: to completion. And I knew when I was incarcerated that
Speaker 3: if I can hold on through this night, that the
Speaker 3: sun would rise in the morning. And you know, Jesus
Speaker 3: came out of his tomb and he gave us that
Speaker 3: same spirit, the Holy Spirit, power to come out of ours.
Speaker 3: And God reclaimed me. You know, he set my feet
Speaker 3: on solid ground. And every day I worked out, you know,
Speaker 3: an hour or two, I did thousand push ups a day.
Speaker 3: I'm looking pretty healthy, I'm feeling strong. I managed entire
Speaker 3: movement from my prison cell. We raised over two million
Speaker 3: dollars and distributed to all the jan sixers, got lawyers
Speaker 3: for over sixty Jan sixers to the J six Legal Fund,
Speaker 3: and tried to keep up community of broken patriots and
Speaker 3: broken families intact. You know, people are being financially devastated.
Speaker 3: Entire life savings wiped down the blink of an eye
Speaker 3: from these you know, one hundred thousand dollars to retain
Speaker 3: federal attorneys and you know, the breadwinners. The men were
Speaker 3: all put in prison, and these young wives and kids
Speaker 3: are at home trying to manage homes, are you know,
Speaker 3: missing mortgage payments and they're getting sold to the bank.
Speaker 3: Cars are getting repossessed. It was it was, you know,
Speaker 3: an insane attack on our way of life. And we
Speaker 3: tried our hard as we fought. We organized, we pushed back,
Speaker 3: we raised money, we prayed, and God sustained us. You know,
Speaker 3: we barely eked by, but we're out now and it's
Speaker 3: time to rebuild America.
Speaker 1: Jake Glang, what did the federal government claim that you
Speaker 1: did on January the sixth, and what did you do
Speaker 1: on January the sixth? So tell us what you were
Speaker 1: charged with and not brought to trial for more than
Speaker 1: four years.
Speaker 3: Well, January sixth was a series of jumped up, politically
Speaker 3: motivated charges. The Weabinar's doj had originally charged me with
Speaker 3: only four counts, and then they after I refused to
Speaker 3: testify against Trump in the second appeachment hearing, they superseded
Speaker 3: me with eight counts, and then when I refused to
Speaker 3: cow down to a plea deal, they superseded me with
Speaker 3: thirteen counts, and then we beat them in Supreme Court
Speaker 3: on the most I mean, over overarching nonsense charge they've
Speaker 3: ever charged Americans with. Three hundred and sixty jan six
Speaker 3: ers were charged with the fifteen to twelve obstruction of
Speaker 3: Congress twenty year maximum felony charge. And that was a
Speaker 3: charge that one hundreds of people had pled guilty to
Speaker 3: just in order to not go to prison for twenty years,
Speaker 3: because the prosecutors told them, either you take this, you know,
Speaker 3: two three years in prison, plead guilty to this charge now,
Speaker 3: or else if you get found guilty, which is a
Speaker 3: guarantee in the DC courtroom, you could go to prison
Speaker 3: for up to twenty years. So they use this to
Speaker 3: bludgeon people into submissions and make them take plea deals,
Speaker 3: and we beat them on this charge in Supreme Court.
Speaker 3: And you know, other than that charge, which was one
Speaker 3: of my major charges that was dropped from my case
Speaker 3: after we won in Supreme Court, which was a monumentous occasion,
Speaker 3: I was also charged with multiple counts of assault on
Speaker 3: federal officers at the Capitol. But you know, these assaults
Speaker 3: were all from a defensive posture. We were peacefully protesting
Speaker 3: and they unleasha a barrage on us with tear gas
Speaker 3: and rubber bullets and concussion grenades, and you know, we
Speaker 3: were just defending ourselves as any man or women have
Speaker 3: the right to do. And you know, for defending yourself
Speaker 3: in America versus tyrannical oppression, apparently it's it's assault charges.
Speaker 3: So when you're at the Capitol, But if you do
Speaker 3: it in your own home, it's called sand your ground law.
Speaker 3: If you do it at a bar fight, if nobody
Speaker 3: swings on you first and you end up defending yourself,
Speaker 3: you're you know, that's a legally admissible reason to apply
Speaker 3: use of force. And they didn't allow us to even
Speaker 3: bring up self defense arguments at our trials. They precluded us,
Speaker 3: which is the legal term for the judge being an
Speaker 3: absolute tyrant, saying that you are not allowed to assert
Speaker 3: your right to self defense to this jury. They will
Speaker 3: not be given instructions to acquit you based upon self defense.
Speaker 3: So we were going in there with no self defense.
Speaker 3: They wouldn't allow us to use our First Amendment right
Speaker 3: as an excuse either for being at the capital, saying
Speaker 3: we were there to redress agreements. They precluded us from
Speaker 3: First Amendment arguments and some self defense and defensive third person.
Speaker 3: So we literally had our arms and hands tied behind
Speaker 3: our backs, and with a rig DC jury pool and
Speaker 3: the rigged prosecution and the rig judges that it was
Speaker 3: absolutely an impossible scenario. But who do we serve? We
Speaker 3: serve the god of impossiblidded And look, I'm walking around
Speaker 3: mine hotel room right now, Freeman Jay Lang.
Speaker 1: Why did the federal government not bring you to trial
Speaker 1: for more than four years? In fact, when you were
Speaker 1: released because of the orders of Donald Trump a few
Speaker 1: days ago, you still didn't have a court date. So
Speaker 1: how can you keep somebody locked up more than four
Speaker 1: years in horrible circumstances and not bring you to trial.
Speaker 3: Well, going to Supreme Court pretty much elongated my case
Speaker 3: for two years as that situation works itself out. And
Speaker 3: on top of that, the government never provided full exculpatory evidence.
Speaker 3: Say they hid I mean it was literally just what
Speaker 3: three weeks ago we got the Inspector General's report that
Speaker 3: there were three dozen FBI agents paid at the Capitol
Speaker 3: to disrupt and perpetrate the events of January sixth. I'd
Speaker 3: been asking my prosecutor for that video, for the evidence
Speaker 3: where the federal agents were. Did I interact with any
Speaker 3: did any of those people change my disposition or influence
Speaker 3: my actions on January sixth to when of these people
Speaker 3: hand me a baseball bat? I mean, we had no
Speaker 3: idea who the federal chs agents and assets were. They
Speaker 3: were hiding that information from us, not even admitting that
Speaker 3: those people were there. And so we were pushing doing
Speaker 3: all these pre trial court motions in order to assert
Speaker 3: my right to try to get a fair trial, because
Speaker 3: when you go to trial without full exculpatory evidence, that's
Speaker 3: called a Brady violation. There's a landmark case Brady versus
Speaker 3: USA or whatever, that asserts that any evidence that can
Speaker 3: be beneficial to you using in the courtroom needs to
Speaker 3: be provided to you by the prosecution, and they weren't
Speaker 3: doing that. We were fighting with them to try to
Speaker 3: get this information. Obviously they did not. We had to
Speaker 3: call it out of their cold dead hands in the
Speaker 3: new Trumpet administration to get this info, and you know,
Speaker 3: it just basically made it an impossible scenario. My legal
Speaker 3: team had made the decision that it's in the best
Speaker 3: interest of justice, we will continue to fight to get
Speaker 3: you a fair trial and a full exculpatory information before
Speaker 3: we just walk you into that courtroom, allow you to
Speaker 3: be slaughtered without you know, a chance to have the
Speaker 3: evidence you need to defend yourself. Jake, and I said,
Speaker 3: you know, they said to me, are you willing to
Speaker 3: push it out and wait until we get you a
Speaker 3: fair trial or do you want to just go and
Speaker 3: just be slaughtered on the altar of woke left liberal
Speaker 3: politics here in DC. And I said, you know, I'm
Speaker 3: willing to do whatever it takes to as certain my
Speaker 3: right as an American to have a fair and impartial.
Speaker 2: Trial, Okay.
Speaker 1: In the IG report, Inspector General's report about three weeks
Speaker 1: ago said there were dozens of FBI agents undercover, incentivizing, encouraging,
Speaker 1: and some say providing weapons to those who were there,
Speaker 1: and that was quickly buried. That was even a one
Speaker 1: day story. It was less than a one day story,
Speaker 1: and that we moved on from that completely. So at
Speaker 1: this point, there are many At this point, I think
Speaker 1: that everyone is freed from January sixth to media is
Speaker 1: fashioning in this thing completely differently. The media is making
Speaker 1: it look as if Donald Trump wanted to have police
Speaker 1: officers killed. Donald Trump, that didn't mind if police officers
Speaker 1: were beaten. And I would say this, Jake Lang, if
Speaker 1: somebody actually can be proven beat up a cop, sprayed
Speaker 1: him with bear spray, hit him in the head, he
Speaker 1: should go to jail. He should be convicted on that. However,
Speaker 1: in Hamilton County where I'm from, or anywhere in the country,
Speaker 1: anyone that assaults the police officer not resulting in the
Speaker 1: police officer's death or disability to get four years in
Speaker 1: jail for that is one hell.
Speaker 2: Of a punishment.
Speaker 1: So, even assuming that you did with a claim you
Speaker 1: have done, you spent four years in federal prisons and
Speaker 1: many times in isolation and the whole for an offense
Speaker 1: for which you were not convicted. In fact, you as
Speaker 1: you sit there today, you're not convicted of any federal crimes.
Speaker 1: They held you for four years and release and you
Speaker 1: understand that of Kamala Harris had won, you'd be in jail,
Speaker 1: likely until you were dead.
Speaker 3: Yeah, believe me, I know that this was a preordained
Speaker 3: blessing on my life to deliver me from the death
Speaker 3: and the destruction that was this incredible tyranny. The show
Speaker 3: Biden presidency represented for me life or death scenario. I mean,
Speaker 3: if the Democrats were allowed to continue the political persecution
Speaker 3: of constitutionalists and patriots, my whole life would have been
Speaker 3: wasted inside of prison cell. But God saw me fit
Speaker 3: and saw all the January sixth ers fit for his service.
Speaker 3: You know, in the Book of Matthew, we learned about
Speaker 3: a story where Jesus tells his disciples to go and
Speaker 3: grab a donkey from a man. And the disciples that Jesus,
Speaker 3: what if this man tells us, what do we ask?
Speaker 3: You know, what do we tell him? When he asked us,
Speaker 3: who's a donkey for?
Speaker 4: And Jesus told his disciples to say, the Master has
Speaker 4: a need, and the Master had a need on us,
Speaker 4: and he unloosed us as well too, and is using
Speaker 4: us for his good will and pleasure. And when God
Speaker 4: has a calling on your life, he will move a mountain,
Speaker 4: he will break a chain. He will deliver you from
Speaker 4: whatever oppression, whatever circumstance you're in, in order to use
Speaker 4: you as one of his instruments. And so he saw
Speaker 4: us as instruments, as vessels.
Speaker 3: That were suited to be filled with his spirit, to
Speaker 3: be used for his glory. And he delivered us from
Speaker 3: our our death, our tomb, just because he did his
Speaker 3: son Jesus.
Speaker 1: Jake, Jake Blank, did you commit any crimes on January the.
Speaker 3: Sixth, No, I defended my country from communist oppression?
Speaker 2: Did you assault or attack a police officer?
Speaker 3: I only defended my life in the lives of those
Speaker 3: around me. All right?
Speaker 1: And this point, what is Jake Lang gonna do? What
Speaker 1: are you gonna do with the rest of your life?
Speaker 1: Imagine a lawsuits coming at some point. What are you
Speaker 1: going to do with this reprieve by President Trump? What
Speaker 1: is your mission now?
Speaker 3: Well, we need accountability. We're pushing one hundred percent to
Speaker 3: make sure that those who have tortured us are held
Speaker 3: responsible for their actions. We also have the January sixth
Speaker 3: Life for Building project that is a huge part of
Speaker 3: getting this first steps forward, getting these men back up
Speaker 3: on their feet. Two hundred and fifty men that have
Speaker 3: been financially devastated to homes, you know, mortgages and bankrupt,
Speaker 3: sold off to the bank, cars, repossessed, life savings, wipes out, family,
Speaker 3: generational businesses, destroyed, are emerging from prison with nothing. They're penniless,
Speaker 3: and we need to get them immediately set up into
Speaker 3: apartments and with first month's rents and new sneakers and
Speaker 3: a cell phone and some groceries and stuff. So, guys,
