> I don't believe anyone in J6 was charged with having a gun or even insurrection. They all got slapped with misdemeanors for trespassing. Yeah they shouldn't have been there, but many videos inside just show them talking with cops and taking selfies.
The full list of charges is here: https://www.justice.gov/usao-dc/capitol-breach-cases https://www.justice.gov/usao-dc/capitol-breach-cases
Just the 7th entry on that list includes a gun possession charge.
A charge for insurrection is unlikely to be brought, as I don't think the events meet the legal definition of insurrection, but sedition charges have been brought (179 search results for "Obstruction of an official proceeding").
