FEMA Employees Caught Watching Porn at Work
JUDICIAL WATCH SUES JUSTICE DEPARTMENT OVER LAST-MINUTE JANUARY 6
TARGETING
[[link removed]]
The Biden administration, anticipating President-elect Donald
Trump’s promise to issue pardons for January 6, 2021, defendants, is
believed to have accelerated prosecutions in the final months of
Biden’s term.
That is why we filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit
[[link removed]]
against the U.S. Department of Justice for records on accelerated
January 6 prosecutions after Donald Trump was elected president in
November 2024 (_Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Justice_
[[link removed]]
(No. 1:25-cv-02161)).
We sued in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia after
the Justice Department failed to respond to a November 2024 FOIA
request for the records of then-Attorney General Merrick Garland,
then-Deputy Attorney General Lisa O. Monaco, then-Principal Deputy
Associate Attorney General Benjamin C. Mizer, and then-Special Counsel
Jack Smith “regarding a) pardons of any person(s) incarcerated due
convictions in federal court in the District of Columbia related to
crimes committed at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C, on Wednesday,
Jan. 6, 2021 b) directives or orders to focus on arresting additional
suspects by type of offense allegedly committed. The timeframe of the
request is from January – November 2024.”
On January 6, 2025, the Justice Department reportedly
[[link removed]]
considered charging up to 200 additional people
[[link removed]]
for their alleged involvement at the U.S. Capitol disturbance. About
1,583 people already had been facing federal charges. On January 17,
2025, it was reported that the FBI and federal prosecutors continued
[[link removed]]
to make arrests and “pursue hefty sentences for those who breached
the U.S. Capitol grounds.” Authorities made four arrests just days
before Trump’s inauguration.
The corrupt Biden Justice Department tried to undermine the Trump
administration by maliciously prosecuting American citizens tied to
January 6. Our lawsuit aims to get to the truth about this last-minute
abuse of power.
We have several FOIA lawsuits dealing with the lawfare targeting Trump
and his supporters.
In August 2025, we announced that the U.S. Air Force will finally
provide
[[link removed]
military funeral honors
[[link removed]]
to Ashli
Babbitt, the Air Force veteran who was shot and killed inside the U.S.
Capitol by then-Capitol Police Lt. Michael Byrd on January 6, 2021.
Babbitt was the only official January 6 homicide victim. The Biden
administration had previously denied Babbitt and her family these
honors in retaliation for being at the U.S. Capitol that day. This
decision comes on the heels of a massive, nearly $5 million Trump
administration
[[link removed]
[[link removed]]
to her family for wrongful death and other claims against the U.S.
Government.
Also in August, a Georgia state court issued an
[[link removed]
[[link removed]]
in our
lawsuit for Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis to provide new
information and potentially conduct a new search for Trump-related
records because her affidavit to the court made no reference to
whether any searches of the devices of former Fulton County Special
Prosecutor Nathan Wade or those of Chief Investigator Michael L. Hill,
who was involved in gathering evidence and coordinating investigative
efforts and likely met
[[link removed]]
with the January 6 Committee.
In May 2025, we
[[link removed]
[[link removed]]
the U.S. Department of Defense for records regarding a reported 2021
meeting between then-Attorney General Merrick Garland and
then-Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley during
which they discussed President Trump. During the meeting, Milley is
alleged to have pressured Garland to target “far-right” militia
movements (_Judicial Watch Inc. v. U.S. Department of Defense_
[[link removed]
_(No.
1:25-cv-01330)).
In April 2025, we
[[link removed]
[[link removed]]
a FOIA lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service to obtain records
related to possible improper targeting of January 6, 2021, Capitol
protesters, their supporters, and related nonprofits (_Judicial Watch
v. Internal Revenue Service_
[[link removed]]
(No. 1:25-cv-01290)).
In February 2025, we
[[link removed]
[[link removed]]
the U.S.
Department of Defense for information about two conference calls
involving then-Chairman of the Joint Chief of Staff Mark Milley with
the Departments of Justice, Interior and Homeland Security regarding
coordination for the January 6, 2021, election certification
(_Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Defense_
[[link removed]]
(No. 1:25-cv-00439)).
In December 2024, we
[[link removed]
[[link removed]]
the
Justice Department for details of a reported meeting between Attorney
General Merrick Garland and. Milley in which they discussed President
Trump and during which General Milley pressured Garland to target
American “far right” militia movements (_Judicial Watch Inc. v.
U.S. Department of Justice_
[[link removed]]
(No. 1:24-cv-03380)).
FEMA, LATEST AGENCY WITH EMPLOYEES WATCHING PORN AT WORK
Most of us believe that Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)
employees are dedicated to keeping us safe, but it turns out many of
them were watching porn at work on government computers. Our

Until next week,
