One more J6 Win. Political Hostage Ben Martin’s Release is Unopposed by the Government

Published

5 months ago

on

With January 6th Hostage Jeremy Brown being released just a few days ago, there is hope that the others who are still being held on J6 charges, will be released. The charges for the remaining J6 hostages, like Brown, are related to the J6 FBI raids on their homes. Benjamin Martin is one of these hostages, and The Gateway Pundit received information that this J6er will be home soon.

J6 prisoner Ben Martin, one of the few remaining political prisoners still held in prison, will likely be released this week.

With the help of Condemned USA’s founder, Treniss Evans, attorney George T. Pallas was secured to take over Ben Martin’s case. Within six hours of Pallas and Evans on the job, the government folded and is not opposing Martin’s release. The order has been sent back to the district court judge for conditions, and Martin should be released within this next week.

The motion filed to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit describes how the charges against Martin fall under the Presidential Pardon he received on January 20th. 

Attorney Pallas filed an Emergency Motion to Vacate Judgement and Remand for Dismissal for Martin. Within the motion to vacate are a few examples of other January 6th hostages’ similar cases.

Jeremy Brown was held in the DC Gulag and then received a dose of diesel therapy after his pardon came through on January 20th. His charges, like Martin’s, were related to the egregious FBI raid on his home for J6. Along with Brown’s case, is Elias Costianes, who was ordered to turn himself in two weeks after he received his pardon.

Again, these charges are related to the J6 FBI raid on his home.  

J6 Hostage Jeremy Brown was released from prison 36 days after his Presidential Pardon.

Elias Costianes is still being held in federal prison. Condemned USA is spearheading efforts to get Costianes released as Brown has been and Martin will be.

J6er Dan Wilson was also ordered to report to prison on February 27th for charges related to his J6 FBI raid. Evans again with Pallas assisted Wilson with legal counsel and similar language as Martin’s motion to dismiss. For now, he no longer has to report to the Bureau of Prisons.


 

There are great Attorneys who have been fighting for these Patriots to receive their freedom. Carolyn Stewart, who has been instrumental in helping many J6ers with their cases, fought feverishly to make sure that Jeremy Brown and many other J6ers walked out of their prison doors.

Another attorney who has done great work for the defendants is Roger Roots. A powerhouse in the courtroom, Roots has taken on many J6 cases when others would not, and even though the unjust Department of Justice gave no J6er a fair trial, Roots had some wins where they counted. 

Normally you wouldn’t hear praise for an attorney. However, these attorneys have been working tirelessly for our brothers and sisters because the cause is just. Condemned USA is helping to make sure the J6ers, and others who are Politically persecuted, have the best soldiers in the fight for them. 

After President Trump signed the Presidential Pardons and Commutations for the over 1500 J6 Americans, many see the J6 battle as being won but may not see that this battle continues for some. We are still in a war that was waged against the American People.

The January 6th defendants were specifically targeted by the last administration, and until we have a solid MAGA government and judicial system, we mustn’t become complacent with the wins we have. It’s not time to sit back in the recliner and take a nap. We the People need everyone up on their feet standing up for the wrongs that have been taking place to the American people over the last several decades.

In every war, soldiers require the proper weapons to fight the battle they’re in. In the lawfare battle of the J6ers and other political prisoners, there is a need for ammunition in the form of financial support, so that these legal warriors are able to continue the fight.

The war is not over, in fact, it has only just begun.

With the help of the American people, Condemned USA can be on the frontlines. Evans and his team are helping to get Tina Peters, who is being held in Colorado, freed.

There is also Tyler Burleson and former Arkansas State Senator Jon Woods. All were thrown into prison on bogus charges and meant to be forgotten. We the People will not forget those who have stood up to tyranny, corruption and EVIL.

You can help arm the soldiers of Condemned USA by visiting their website and becoming a donor.

When Dan Wilson thought he still had to turn himself into prison, he sat down with me for an interview to tell his story.

GOP Senator John Thune Quietly BLOCKS Trump Recess Appointments with Sneaky Procedural Maneuver — Launches Series of Pro Forma Sessions to Keep Senate in Fake “Session” During August Recess

Published

13 hours ago

on

August 3, 2025

By

Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R‑SD) has unveiled a procedural scheme to block President Donald Trump from making any critical appointments during the August recess, effectively aiding the Democrats’ obstructionist agenda.

Under the U.S. Constitution, the president can make “recess appointments,” temporary appointments to federal positions, if the Senate is in recess and not conducting business. These appointments don’t require immediate Senate confirmation and can last until the end of the next session of Congress.

But there’s a loophole: if the Senate holds pro forma sessions, very short, symbolic meetings where no actual business is conducted, then technically, the Senate is still in session. That means the president cannot legally make recess appointments during that time.

John Thune has quietly secured unanimous‑consent for a paper‑thin Senate schedule through the Trump appointee confirmation deadline, ensuring only pro forma sessions on five key dates in early August.

Under the agreement, the chamber will adjourn after today’s business and reconvene without conducting any votes or business on:

  • Tue, Aug 5 – 1:00 p.m.
  • Fri, Aug 8 – 1:05 p.m.
  • Tue, Aug 12 – 8:00 a.m.
  • Fri, Aug 15 – 10:15 a.m.
  • Tue, Aug 19 – 10:00 a.m.
  • Fri, Aug 22 – 9:00 a.m.
  • Tue, Aug 26 – 12:00 p.m.
  • Fri, Aug 29 – 7:00 a.m.

WATCH:

Thune’s pro forma blueprint comes amid mounting pressure from Donald Trump, who has demanded the Senate remain open until all 150+ administration nominees are confirmed.

Under the Recess Appointments Clause, a president may only install nominees without Senate approval if both chambers are in formal recess for at least 10 days. By convening the Senate just long enough every few days, Thune blocks the possibility of Trump making unilateral appointees.

The Senate went into its August recess without confirming all of Trump’s pending judicial and district‑level appointments.

By the time lawmakers left town on Saturday evening, no deal had been reached to move dozens of Trump’s nominees, including U.S. district court picks, through final floor votes.

Only a small handful of nominees (such as Jeanine Pirro to be U.S. Attorney in D.C.) had advanced. Otherwise, nominees remained stalled in committees or waiting for cloture roll‑calls on the executive calendar.

Roughly 150–160 executive and judicial nominations, including over a dozen district court judges and U.S. attorney nominations, remained scheduled but unconfirmed.

‘That’s What I Call Results!’: Trump Admin Saves Jobs, Kicks 1500 Non-English-Speaking Truckers Off the Road

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy revealed that there have been about 1,500 truck drivers who do not speak English taken off the roads as part of a push to ensure foreign truck drivers are not causing accidents.

Back in 2016, the Obama administration stopped enforcing English proficiency requirements for truckers, according to a report from The Daily Signal.

But in May, Duffy issued a guidance making clear that truck drivers who cannot demonstrate a proficiency in English cannot drive.

The 1,500 drivers were taken off the roads within the first 3o days of the rules once more being enforced, according to The Daily Signal.

“Since I took action to enforce language proficiency requirements for truckers, our state partners have put roughly 1,500 unqualified drivers out of service. That’s what I call results!” Duffy posted on X.

“If you can’t read or speak our national language — ENGLISH — we won’t let your truck endanger the driving public.”

He added, “America First = Safety First.”

Duffy’s concerns were far from unfounded.

In January, there was a truck driver involved in a fatal crash that had to use a language interpreter for the post-crash investigation, according to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration.

Another incident from 2019 involved a truck driver who could not proficiently speak English speeding through signs that warned of steep grades and dangerous curves, all at more than 100 miles per hour.

Four people died in that crash, per the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration.

President Donald Trump had likewise insisted with an April executive order that the move centered on public safety.

“They should be able to read and understand traffic signs, communicate with traffic safety, border patrol, agricultural checkpoints, and cargo weight-limit station officers,” the order said of truck drivers.

They also “need to provide feedback to their employers and customers and receive related directions in English,” a position the order called “common sense.”

“It is the policy of my Administration to support America’s truckers and safeguard our roadways by enforcing the commonsense English-language requirement for commercial motor vehicle drivers and removing needless regulatory burdens that undermine the working conditions of America’s truck drivers,” the notice added.

“This order will help ensure a safe, secure, and efficient motor carrier industry.”

Slovenia Imposes Arms Embargo on Israel, Citing Gaza Conflict

Slovenia has imposed an arms embargo on Israel, banning the export, import, and transit of weapons to and from the country.

This decision was announced by Prime Minister Robert Golob following a government session on July 31, 2025.

Slovenia claims to be the first European Union member to take such a step, citing the EU’s inability to act due to internal disagreements.

The government stated that no permits for military exports to Israel have been issued since October 2023, when the conflict in Gaza began.

Officials emphasized that the embargo is an independent measure to address the humanitarian situation in Gaza. Slovenia has repeatedly called for a ceasefire and increased aid deliveries to the region.

In early July 2025, Slovenia declared two Israeli ministers, Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben-Gvir, persona non grata, barring them from entry.

This action was based on their public statements regarding the conflict. Earlier, in June 2024, Slovenia recognized Palestinian statehood, joining countries like Ireland, Norway, and Spain in this move.

The conflict in Gaza started after the October 7, 2023, attack by Hamas on Israeli territory, which resulted in over 1,200 deaths and the taking of hostages.

Israel responded with a military operation aimed at dismantling Hamas infrastructure. Reports from Gaza’s health ministry indicate significant casualties, with ongoing international efforts to negotiate truces and provide aid.

Several other nations have taken similar diplomatic steps, including France, Britain, and Canada announcing potential recognition of a Palestinian state. Australia has also indicated that recognizing Palestinian statehood is under consideration.

Israel has criticized these declarations, arguing they could reward Hamas for its actions.

Israeli officials dismissed Slovenia’s embargo as insignificant, noting that Israel does not procure any defense materials from Slovenia.

An unnamed official stated that the country buys nothing from Slovenia, not even minor items.

Within the EU, there is growing pressure for measures against Israel, with Sweden and the Netherlands advocating for suspending parts of the EU-Israel Association Agreement.

The European Commission has proposed limiting Israel’s participation in the Horizon research program, though Germany opposes such steps.

German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul expressed concerns about Israel’s potential diplomatic isolation during a visit to Jerusalem.

The United States remains a key ally to Israel, with President Donald Trump warning that recognizing Palestinian statehood might benefit Hamas.

U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff recently met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to advance Gaza truce talks. These efforts aim to address the humanitarian crisis and secure a ceasefire.
