41. Most of these cases will be textbook examples of inequality in our system of justice.

Most of these MAGATs are relatively well off, at least enough so to afford making that trip on Jan. 6th as well as taking time off work and buying lots of tRump paraphernalia.

Would these same folks show compassion and pity toward a low-income or out-of-work POC father caught stealing food for his kids? Many poor people like that suffer serious jail time over relatively minor crimes after getting trapped in the system 'cause they can't afford a good attorney or the fines and court costs, or miss court dates due to no transportation.

I'm doubtful about the truthfulness of this woman's statements about why she's losing business. Being in red Indiana, it more likely due to COVID and her not being consistently available for appointments, and that's caused by much time spent dealing with her legal issues.
