A spoof sketch could be done on that one. Beaver participates in a riot at the Capitol to try to overthrow an election for a nutty president.
If the judge had let them off easy, those two would have been on right-wing media outlets the next day defiant and essentially laughing at the judge, like some of Trump's other rioters have done.
Three years wasn't that harsh of a sentence for attacking police officers. They had already plea bargained and their attorney wanted a lighter sentence after the plea bargain.

Lindell said a year ago that the Supreme Court would reinstate Trump as president in August 2021 (when the Supreme Court is in recess). He later stated it would happen by the end of 2021. After that, he said that he didn't know and that it was in God's hands.
Lindell never produced the grand court case that he said would reinstate Trump. His last remarks about it were that AG from around the country were still editing it.
The person responsible for what was portrayed as real data capture supposedly suffered a stroke as Lindell's symposium started and wasn't available. MyPillow Guy’s ‘Cyber Expert’ Admits They Have No Proof of Election Hack
Democrats should use 14th Amendment insurrection clause to keep Trump off the ballot in 2024 by Alan B. Morrison, opinion contributor 07/16/22 6:00 PM ET Democrats should use 14th Amendment insurrection clause to keep Trump off the ballot in 2024 | The Hill
Flynn whined about others taking the Fifth and then took it himself. Flynn was convicted and pardoned by Trump on November 25, 2020, the day before Thanksgiving. Trump later invited Flynn to the White House on December 18, 2020 to help overturn the election. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...h-trump-said-years-after-invoking-it-himself/
Agreed, this is more in-line of what I was hoping to see........... Prosecutors Seek 15-Year Sentence For Armed Capitol Rioter Federal prosecutors are seeking a 15-year prison sentence for a Texas man who was convicted of storming the U.S. Capitol with a holstered handgun, calling him a militia group member who took a central role in the pro-Trump mob’s attack, according to a court filing Friday. If a judge accepts the Justice Department’s recommendation, Guy Wesley Reffitt’s prison sentence would be nearly three times the length of the longest sentence among more than 200 defendants who have been sentenced for crimes related to the Jan. 6, 2021, riot in the nation’s capital.
Reffitt had a gun and cuffs. He said he wanted to drag Pelosi down the Capitol steps by her ankles with her head hitting every step on the way down. Trump's rioters beat the police violently and dragged some down the steps. Five died later (one stroke death and four suicides). The rioters could have easily killed members of Congress if they had found them. That includes the mob outside the barricaded and smashed doors of the Speaker's Lobby where members could be seen standing and that Ashli Babbitt tried to breach.
Alex Jones is a no-show again. The conspiracy-truthers like Jones, Powell, Giuliani, and Lindell are feeling the legal heat of their own rhetoric, whether it's Sandy Hook or the 2020 presidential election. Alex Jones again fails to show up for a deposition in the Sandy Hook case against him
