The Democrat party is aligned and heavily-overlapping with what everyone is calling "the deep state". And the state is the one that prosecuted those individuals.
That is why everyone is calling out the alternative treatment of the BLM rioters which are heavily-aligned and supported by the Democratic party. If it was indeed the "state" that was impartially and fairly prosecuting and jailing all law-breakers, then the Republicans would have no argument and I'd be the first to disagree with them. But to a lot of us, the bias and double-standards are very obvious, which is why we're supporting them now.
