    Trump rioter who threw fire extinguisher at police sentenced to more than five years in prison.


    Capitol rioter who threw fire extinguisher at police gets more than 5 years in prison

    excerpt:

    "A Capitol rioter from Florida who admitted to assaulting police with a wooden plank and a fire extinguisher on Jan. 6. has been sentenced in federal court to more than five years in prison.

    Why it matters: The sentence handed down to 54-year-old Robert Palmer is the longest given for any Capitol riot defendant so far.
    • Prior to Palmer's sentencing, the longest prison term given to a Capitol rioter was 41 months, AP reports.
    • He is the 65th defendant to be sentenced while more than 700 have been charged.
    What they're saying: During his sentencing, Palmer told U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan that he was "really, really ashamed" of what he did, per AP.
    • "It has to be made clear ... trying to stop the peaceful transition of power and assaulting law enforcement officers is going to be met with certain punishment," said Chutkan, who sits on the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.
    • "There are going to be consequences. I’m not making an example of you. I’m sentencing you for the conduct you did," the judge added."

    Republicans who always praise the police should be praising Judge Chutkan for being tough on crime.

    But they won't because she's convicting and sentencing Trump's rioters and because she was appointed by Obama.

    Jan. 6 rally organizer turned over ‘wealth of evidence’ to select committee: attorney

    excerpt:

    "Donald Trump appeared to be in big trouble after the Jan. 6 insurrection, when his supporters acted on his election lies and tried to interrupt the process for certifying a new president, but nearly a year later there's little indication that he'll face consequences.

    There's no sign of a criminal investigation of the twice-impeached one-term president or his inner circle for the insurrection or his related attempts to overturn his election, while the Department of Justice has chosen instead to go hard after rioters who broke misdemeanor laws by storming inside the U.S. Capitol, reported New York Magazine.

    "The Justice Department under Attorney General Merrick Garland seems to be pursuing misdemeanor trespass cases at the Capitol more aggressively than potential felony charges for Trump, and Garland appears to have left the responsibility of investigating whether the president of the United States broke federal law to local prosecutors in Georgia," wrote the magazine's Ankush Khardori, a former federal prosecutor. "It is a baffling course of inaction that poses serious long-term risks to our constitutional order, and time is running out to do anything about it."'

    Hannity is still trying to explain why he informed Trump to call off his riot, the one supposedly implemented by BLM.


    Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham: Ignore Our Text Messages

    excerpt:

    "Hannity did acknowledge his texts to Meadows Tuesday night, but he spent a good portion of his segment lashing out at the “corrupt” House panel for publishing the texts and “smearing” Trump. “I am an honest, straightforward person. I say the same thing in private that I say to all of you. Liz Cheney knows this. She doesn’t seem to care. She’s interested in one thing and one thing only—smearing Trump and purging him from the Party,” said Hannity, who later expressed outrage over his “private text messages being released again publicly. Do we believe in privacy in this country? Apparently not.”"

    Do we believe in the Constitution, the rule of law, and the peaceful transition of power after a legitimate election? Apparently not.

    Sean Hannity's Secret Jan. 6 Text Comes To Light And He... Goes On Vacation

    excerpt:

    "Fox News’ Sean Hannity announced Thursday he’d be off the air until 2022, days after bombshell revelations about a private text message he sent then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows during the storming of the U.S. Capitol.

    “I’m coming back ready for a political fight,” vowed the Trump apologist, who in his Jan. 6 text to Meadows urged him to get then-President Donald Trump to call off the violent mob of his supporters.

    “On vacation, I try to center myself, find God, and then get my creative juices flowing, and I already know where I’m headed,” Hannity told Ingraham. “I know next year is the biggest most important midterm election year in our lives and I’m going to be focused like a laser beam.”"

    SC official charged with assaulting councilman who accepted Biden's win.


    South Carolina GOP official charged with assaulting city councilman who accepted Biden won the election

    excerpt:

    "On Friday, the Post and Courier reported that a prominent Republican official in Lexington County, South Carolina has been charged with assault for an altercation with a West Columbia city councilman at a Christmas party.

    "Angus Godwin, 51, a member of Lexington County GOP’s executive committee, was charged with third-degree assault and battery for striking West Columbia Councilman Mike Green, according to an incident report from the Lexington Police Department," reported Casey Darnell. "Green told Post and Courier Columbia he was slapped in the face during the county GOP’s Christmas Party on Dec. 6 at the O’Hara’s Public House restaurant in the town of Lexington. Godwin and Green were on opposite sides of a West Columbia election this fall."

    According to the report, Godwin turned himself in to authorities after the incident.

    "Godwin’s alleged assault on Green was the culmination of a months-long feud within the party over what other members see as Green’s insufficient support of former President Donald Trump, Green said," the report continued. "The Lexington County GOP passed a resolution in October calling on the state Legislature to conduct an audit of the 2020 presidential election results in Lexington County, where Trump won by a wide margin. Green voted for Trump but accepts President Joe Biden as the country’s legitimately elected leader, a position that has angered the more hardline Trump supporters in the party, he said.""

    Mitch McConnell Rips 'Horrendous' Jan. 6 Riot, Says Public 'Needs To Know' What Happened

    excerpt:

    “The mob was fed lies,” McConnell said on the Senate floor two weeks after the insurrection. “They were provoked by the president and other powerful people, and they tried to use fear and violence to stop a specific proceeding of the first branch of the federal government which they did not like.”

    Yet, McConnell also turned Republicans against creating a bipartisan investigation into the events surrounding the insurrection.

    “I do not believe the additional, extraneous commission that Democratic leaders want would uncover crucial new facts or promote healing,” he said at the time.

    Yeah, keep spending taxpayer money for frivolous bullshit. Trump will use and abuse the system, and exhaust all resources for his own personal gain, and these folks still don’t get it. Send him the bill…..
