Thing is, his idiot king threw him under the bus so he could get his jollies watching the capital be ripped apart.

Think he’d vote any differently ...if he has ever voted?

They’re probably taking this opportunity while he’s locked up to make their escape from him.

Hard to imagine a guy like that as a loving husband and father.

"I dint no doin sumpin ill eagle wood put me in da jail."

(Plus excuses)

Every one of these idiots need to be prosecuted, found guilty and hopefully jailed for 20 years. Let their families be cared for by our lovely socialist programs like unemployment, social security, Medicare/Medicaid, or if not that then their racist evangelical church offering plate - oh sorry, all that money is gone due to supporting your greedy pastor and paying for repug attack ads.

Sorry that was a mini-rant...

The evidence in favor of continued incarceration is clear.

But in the interests of fairness, the judge may want time to consider the impact on this man’s family, out of compassion.

Still, without question, this idiot committed a heinous crime by participating in an effort to take down the government of the United States and give it back to a sick, sociopathic narcissist for life, depriving all citizens -- but the very wealthy -- to suffer a loss of freedom and dignity. So there’s that.

He went from Montana to Washington D.C. to take part in Un American violence to overthrow our
government because he did not like the results of an election. That is his picture in the bottom right
corner after breaking into the US Capitol and then into the Senate floor.

Hope she files for divorce while you are in the inside. Your selfish actions fucked your family, you did this to them.

Actions have consequences. I think he should get out of jail after, and only after, he finishes his prison sentence for the crimes we all too clearly saw he committed.

This guy is going to lose everything he owned, and his family will probably end up on welfare. His wife may have to go into some sort of care facility, and any young children will either be taken in by relatives, or the state's social services.
Thank God for the socialist state. It protects families from the stupidity of guys like him.
