Letting those insurrectionist assholes walk with a $500 fine and time served is a travesty. What on earth is Merrick Garland thinking? Maybe he doesn't want to hurt any right wingers feelings.

There is NO Fucking Accountability for people like this.

I'm no longer suckered into thinking those at the top of the shit pile will EVER be charged for ANY crimes.

I feel like a damned fool when 3 months ago I spout off to friends that Matt Gaetz is in trouble. NO HE'S NOT. I'll believe it when I see it.

I'm just done.

Leading the charge on a federal law enforcement officer. Send him back. I will say it again, with no consequences, these assholes will be back and will be more heavily armed. This shit of letting these assholes walk has to end.
