J6ers Are NOT Being Released Immediately as Commanded by Today's EO
UPDATED with a full print out of the EO; more stories

URGENT: Multiple reports coming in from family members, prisoners & J6 advocates of halfway houses refusing to release J6 prisoners despite their pardon - and reports from the DC Gulag of 17 armed and masked guards pushing some 8 prisoners back in their cells and a guard threatening to get one of them on the outside.
More to come.
At the DC Jail
All but perhaps 2 J6 defendants are still locked up, and an MPD officer now tells their supporters outside that nobody else will be freed tonight from this facility despite Trump’s pardon order saying to let them out “immediately.”
