tourists or some such thing.

I'm getting a big "nothing to see here" vibe from how gently they are being handled.

He attacked a police officer while trespassing and he's not a danger to society?
Not getting the logic.

I laugh when I hear people talk about how TFG or his spawn are going to be in deep, deep trouble.

It's fucking hilarious that people still dream of this possibility.

They're hanging their hat on this bad judgement:

https://casetext.com/case/united-states-v-munchel-1

This popped out at me:

That leaves us with Munchel and Eisenhart's final two arguments: (1) that the District Court's determinations in support of detention were clearly erroneous; and (2) that several other defendants who participated in the insurrection have been released before trial, even though the conduct of those defendants is indistinguishable (or even worse) than their conduct on January 6. The first challenges the District Court's finding that no condition or combination of conditions of release could reasonably assure the safety of the community while these appellants await trial. Appellants did not raise the latter argument below, so we decline to pass on it in the first instance and without the benefit of full briefing.

United States v. Munchel, 991 F.3d 1273, 1281-82 (D.C. Cir. 2021)

Are fascists.and sympathize with the traitors. They need to be removed from the bench,they are enemies of the united states'. This explains thier stupidity regarding the terrorists. They sympathize with them to the detriment of our system of justice.
