Walter Hudson, a public figure and commentator, posted a series of tweets on September 11 and 12, 2025, addressing political discourse surrounding the events of January 6 and expressing concerns about institutional support for certain behaviors online.

On September 11, Hudson wrote: "There's a reason these morons can only talk about J6...

... because they have literally nothing else to talk about."

Later that evening, he continued: "This behavior is enabled by institutions - generally leftist and publicly funded - who sanction it.

You don't speak like this publicly from such positions unless you're confident that your employer has your back.

There need to be federal investigations and severe consequences."

In another post shortly after midnight on September 12, Hudson stated: "This is indeed real.

Report the post for glorification of violence.

@FBI... do your thing.

Where are any Democrats condemning this filth and expressions like it?

I've seen none."

These comments reflect ongoing national debates over the legacy of the January 6 Capitol riot, political polarization in the United States, and the role of social media in amplifying controversial speech. The FBI has previously been involved in investigating threats or incitement of violence online as part of its mandate to address domestic terrorism and protect public safety. Federal agencies regularly review reported posts for potential violations related to violent rhetoric or hate speech under existing laws.
