    90 days for trying to overthrown the government and verbally attacking the judge. What a fucking joke of a sentence.

          You forgot to add that she did all of that while being black. If she had had the good sense to be white, she probably wouldn’t have spent 5 years in jail.

            He could have tweeted about defending America from January 6th rioters as a military veteran but also an anarchist. That’ll get you some years. Nearly 4 in fact.
