Donald Trump Jr is facing a wave of mockery after complaining that a man convicted over his role in Capitol riot was treated with “Gestapo tactics.”
“Our govt, our justice system, and the upper echelons of federal law enforcement are corrupt and broken,” Mr Trump tweeted on Thursday. “I hate ‘Gestapo Tactic’ analogies, they’re usually wrong & overused, but not sure there’s another word for it!”
The tweet included a clip of Tucker Carlson’s interview with Brandon Straka, a right-wing activist who pleaded guilty to taking part in the January 6 insurrection. In the video, Straka says an FBI SWAT team broke into his house “at the crack of dawn” and took him to jail.

..."The tweet included a clip of Tucker Carlson’s interview with Brandon Straka, a right-wing activist who pleaded guilty to taking part in the January 6 insurrection. In the video, Straka says an FBI SWAT team broke into his house “at the crack of dawn” and took him to jail.
Aghast, Mr Trump urged his followers to “watch this and see what they’ve become.”
Both Carlson and Mr Trump left out a few details of Straka’s case. On the day of the insurrection, prosecutors say, Straka stood outside an entrance to the Capitol and urged a crowd of intruders inside, shouting “go, go, go,” and later encouraged rioters to grab a Capitol Police officer’s shield."
