GOP lawmakers' DC jail stunt backfires for Jan. 6 defendant (Way to Go, the 3 G's)

Thanks to the 3 G's (Goofy, Goober & Gomer) one January 6th Defendant just got fucked!

Gaetz = Goofy, because he's just a silly twit.
Greene = Goober, because she's a fucking nut.
Gohmer = Gomer, because it's a near rhyme and he's a Pyle of Shit.

An attempt by three Republican lawmakers to visit jailed Jan. 6 rioters has backfired for at least one defendant.

Reps. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), Louie Gohmert (R-TX), Paul Gosar (R-AZ) and Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) were turned away Thursday from the D.C. Department of Corrections, and the following day a federal judge cited the attempted visit as a "concern" while keeping in place some court restrictions in one case, reported NBC's Scott MacFarlane.

Alex Harkrider, a Donald Trump supporter from Texas, has asked to have some conditions of his pretrial release lifted, but the judge cited the attempted visit as a "concern" and kept those restrictions in place.

The 34-year-old Carthage man has asked to have his ankle monitor removed, saying the $110 monthly cost was a financial burden and physical hardship as he awaits trial for civil disorder, obstruction of an official proceeding, theft of government property, entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds with a deadly or dangerous weapon, disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building with a deadly or dangerous weapon, unlawful possession of a dangerous weapon on capitol grounds or buildings, disorderly conduct in a capitol building, and parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building.

The judge described the lawmakers' actions as "active political disputes" over the insurrection that justified keeping the restrictions in place.

They don't give a fuck who they hurt, just as long as they get the negative attention they crave!

Judge: "You're coming into contact w/ people who could die as a result of you having the virus"

Goodwyn: "Respectfully I disagree"

Judge: "600,000 have died. I don't care if you agree... I'm not gonna be part of other people dying, because of what you don't believe"

3. Not withstanding his obvious guilt

charging a prisoner for their own monitoring (and incarceration) is just wrong.

5. I look at it this way. He can pay for luxury to live at home. Or he can live free in a prison cell.

4. I love that he has to pay for ankle monitor.

Get Gosar to pay for it, or MTG. They've got money and dude should hit them up now before they, too, are imprisoned for treason.

6. How much did he spend for that Motion, $1,000? Defense attorneys like cash up front.

11. "...as he awaits trial for..."

civil disorder, obstruction of an official proceeding, theft of government property, entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds with a deadly or dangerous weapon, disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building with a deadly or dangerous weapon, unlawful possession of a dangerous weapon on capitol grounds or buildings, disorderly conduct in a capitol building, and parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building.

This tool thinks he should get relief when he's being tried on 8 charges?
May he be held until all those counts have been ejudicated, and then some.
And, the physical & financial hardship is something he thought of before he brought his dumbass from Texas for an act of sedition.
