Finally we have a President who takes action on behalf of AshLi Babbitt. Feels good to have a President who actually represents the American people πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

Hard to believe that Garland was fighting this case. He was too busy paying off Andrew McCabe who should have been in jail instead of getting checks from the taxpayers.

Rest in peace, Ashli Babbitt. May your memory be for a blessing!

I wear my personally crafted "RIP Ashli" teeshirt with pride. She was shot thru a small gap in a door, plus thru a second door glass. She had no eyes on the shooter, let alone threatened him or whom he claimed to be protecting. Watch the video. Ashli Babbitt was deliberatlely and coward-ily murdered by a man in hiding. He got a medal and a pension. He does not deserve to live off our taxes.

There will be no justice until her killer, the cowardly officer who hid behind a door, is made accountable.

Thanks for this update, Julie. All I can say is that in the best of all possible worlds Michael Byrd would and should be in prison for murder, if not manslaughter. I'm really hopeful that President Trump's administration will seek an indictment for this killer regardless of the non-action taken by the previous DOJ.

Exactly! I’m all for compensating the family but those responsible must be held accountable.

It is good that this is finally moving in the right direction but I have a sense of sadness that it took this long. They cannot compensate for how she was murdered, carried out of the building, and then not given a veteran's funeral. I also don't understand why cremation occurred in these cases, (Babbitt and Boyland) Any thoughts?

The LibTards will become even more deranged when a settlement is reached AND DISCLOSED.

In aβ€”God forbidβ€”Harris administration, the DoJ would have taken the case to court. Garland had already switched venue from Babbitt's San Diego to DC, 95 percent of whose jury pool voted against Trump and in which city no jury acquitted a J6er. Now let's do Rosanne Boyland.

It infuriates me to read this about Byrd who is an incompetent piece of crab excrement!

Evidently you live on another planet. I watched live videos taken by people who were there. Not the lies of the government and the media. So much more needs revealing. The Truth has still not been told.

Call me crazy-but I think Tucker Carlson's firing had more to do with his showing the J6 videos than Dominion.

Thanks for the update Julie. Of all the atrocities committed against innocent American citizens on that awful day, the murder of Ashli is right at the top. The settlement, however large or small, is at least recognition that something very wrong was done that day.

I can't say what I think should happen to Byrd. Get in trouble that way!

That was a cowardly and illegal act of violence.

Any idea if Byrd will ever be charged? I’d say that I hope it haunts him, but I doubt if he cares enough to be bothered by killing this young patriot in cold blood.

OK, that one is heading in the right direction. The DOJ still needs to open up a CRIMINAL investigation on that disgrace of a LEO. And, and I close with two words..TINA PETERS. That situation is beyond a DISGRACE !!!
