incite others to overthrow the results of a lawful, fair election, they are to be arrested and to go to jail Immediately regardless of their current or past position in government, or how wealthy they are.

If they steal top secret documents, they must also go to jail right away.

Whether or not they stay in jail, or get out on bail is up to the court.

For too long, Democrats have been in the habit of ignoring past lawbreaking by Republican administrations. "Let bygones be bygones"; "We don't look backwards, we look forward", etc.

Noble sentiments to be sure, but if no price is paid for past wrongdoing, more will happen in the future, and we lose our democracy.

If Democrats had vigorously enforced the law beginning in 2021, we would not be in the awful situation we're in today.
