“I really hope SCOTUS is paying attention to how DC judges are scheming to keep J6ers in prison on 1512c2 convictions if SCOTUS reverses that charge in J6 cases.
This order is not just a warning to the defendant involved—Larry Brock, a decorated military veteran with no criminal history convicted of 1512c2 and 5 nonviolent misdemeanors who successfully appealed an unlawful sentencing enhancement—it’s a warning to ALL J6ers convicted of 1512c2 to NOT seek release from jail if SCOTUS reverses how DOJ and federal judges (including this one, John Bates) applied the law.
DOJ has already come up with a replacement “enhancement” to substitute the one overturned on appeal to apply as defendants seek relief waiting for SCOTUS opinion.
NOW judges are warning they will take the extraordinary step of ordering prison time to be served CONSECUTIVELY not concurrently (at the same time) on low level offenses.
The ex-chief judge recently said ordering consecutive sentences on misdemeanors is not standard practice in DC court but could be considered in order to keep 1512c2 defendants in jail EVEN IF THAT COUNT DROVE EXCESSIVE PRISON SENTENCE.
Disgusting. This is who Biden is employing with millions in taxpayer dollars. Catholic Charities is another. They’re helping to destroy the US.

“Congressman Michael McCaul Who Wrote The TikTok Ban Bill Invested $1.15 Million Into META After Writing The Bill- On March 3rd, he authored the TikTok Ban Bill
– On March 22nd, he invested $150,000 in META
– On the 26th, he invested another $150,000
– On the 28th, he invested another $150,000
So about three weeks after writing the TikTok Ban Bill, this man invested $450,000 in TikTok’s competitor.
Oh, and then what did he do once he saw his TikTok ban was gonna be included with all the Ukraine funding:
– Well, on April 1st, he invested $350,000 more in META, followed by the fifth where he invested that again.
Then about a week later, of course, he voted yes on the bill he wrote.
So within the span of 40 days, this dude wrote the TikTok ban bill, proceeded to invest $450,000 in the competitor, and then invested another $700,000, taking his total investment and META at a $1.15 million.
And then he voted yes. Now, obviously the word most people are using here is suspicious, but the word we should be using is criminal.
This man wrote the f***** bill to ban TikTok, proceeded to invest more than a million dollars in its competitor, whose stock will skyrocket if TikTok actually gets banned, and then voted on the bill to ban it.

But did Trump have an affair 20 years ago? That’s what’s really important.
I am watching the current round of Democrat protests and thinking this is just about the time of year the protests/’mostly peaceful’ riots started in 2020. Convenient isn’t it.
My comments yesterday were in response to wondering why Daniels was paid off (whether Trump did it himself or his attorney did it on his behalf), and also to your repeated comments that no affair happened. You can’t comment on a matter and then react negatively to those who reply.
This quote from a piece by Carl Trueman describes well what we see in much of political discourse on social media:
~~~ “This points to their value in today’s debates. One of the striking lacunae on both the right and left wings of the Christian political spectrum is the general absence of any reference to the transcendence of God and the supernatural nature of the church. Immanent concerns rule the day. The pundits on both sides seem more concerned with making sure that no criticism goes unmocked and no critic’s character goes unsmeared than with relativizing the affairs of this world in the light of eternity.” ~~~
~ … Americans are still conservative in a sense, but it is now radical individualism and materialism that many want to conserve. For decades they’ve soaked in that worldview, from influences as different as Supreme Court decisions and Seinfeld episodes. The median voter, then, will still go to the ballot to protest runaway immigration, for that is a disruption of the world he knows, but he will not go to the ballot to protest abortion, for that is the world he knows.
For authentic conservatives, who still know an even older world, this presents a challenge—politically speaking, an almost insuperable challenge. Politics can shape culture, to be sure, but in a democratic polity, you cannot simply reverse a cultural tide by political means. You can, perhaps, slow its progress, buying time for cultural renewal, but that renewal will have to come at the level of the imagination, educating the silent majority of Americans to recognize that there is a world more real and more true than the increasingly unreal one that has been presented to them these past 50 years. ~
When I refer to NTers, I don’t always mean just you and Kizzie. In fact, rarely do I.
There are tons more in media, take for example the faux journalists at the Atlantic, the Bulwark, half of National Review and the like. The ones who if they were the conservatives and principled “journalists” they think they are, would be screaming loudly about the treatment of Jan6ers.
But they’re no, so they don’t. Too busy grifting dems with their trash writings instead.
And not just in the media. I would include the useless Pence, Johnson, and Christie types too. The so called leaders who don’t lead.
Charities, secular or Christian, are often corrupt especially far away and in foreign fields away from scrutiny. Its no accident sex offenders are coaches, youth leaders etc. And in the same way, they are attracted to children focused charities – and unfortunately scrutiny is far harder in foreign countries.
When you knowingly sign a false legal document, you know eventually you have to explain yourself. Arizona has a case and we’ll see what a jury of their peers think.
Genuinely curious why the police cleared the encampments – it was a simple sit down protest. I never heard any incidents of violence prior to the police arrival; just some speeches and signs that may have offended some people. But I think the libertarian right will agree that being offensive is not a reason for censorship. The left’s answer on the police clearance is to blame the university’s need to placate politicians and donors who control money that universities want.
The universities are using trespass citations as justification but they as fee paying students have a legal right to be on campus. Andy Ngro amuses me – he sees Antifa everywhere. Using umbrellas as a tactic was popularised by Hong Kong protesters not Antifa.
Of course the FBI has the encampment under surveillance along with social media, web sites, etc. If past history is a good indication, at least 10% of the protesters will be FBI plants and will act as agent provocateurs and will say outrageous things just to discredit the protesters.
A mother visiting her daughter at a protest encampment is grounds for expulsion from Congress? That’s good parenting; taking an interest in your daughter’s activities and maybe passing some advice. I’ve done the same with my daughter. I may not necessarily endorse everything she did but I was there for her.
If you want to expel Omar, how about congressmen who defy a subpoena – Jordan, McCartney, etc. Or Matt Gaetz still not coming clean. The Republicans have a branch vs sawdust in the eye problem

Chris Christie has fully lost it.
This week, the morbidly obese failed Presidential candidate openly called for the deaths of Donald Trump and Vivek Ramaswamy:
JUST IN: Trump’s lawyers just absolutely DESTROYED Michael Cohens character! He’s the key witness in this entire trial and not only is he a convicted felon, but we now know he was concocting schemes to get more money from Trump.
“JUST IN: Trump’s lawyers just absolutely DESTROYED Michael Cohens character! He’s the key witness in this entire trial and not only is he a convicted felon, but we now know he was concocting schemes to get more money from Trump.
According to David Pecker, Cohen wanted him to send paparazzi to a meeting he was having with Mark Cuban in an attempt to make Trump jealous and put pressure on him to treat Cohen differently.
It’s becoming increasingly obvious that Cohen has been a snake this entire time, and would be willing to say whatever he can about Trump to get himself out of trouble.
Who’s ready for Cohen to take the stand against team Trump?”
Today proved why Democrats need Trump trapped inside of his cage in court. Every time he escapes, whether it's a construction site or the bodega, as MSNBC said, it's a "dangerous situation." He wins the hearts and minds of crowds, while Biden keeps losing his base. So the… pic.twitter.com/UjohMl7SVe
