In a major development in the MAGA riot investigation, a member of the far-right Oath Keepers pled guilty on two of six charges against him. There are reportedly 15 other members involved.



In the first case of sentencing a MAGA woman was simply given community service which is causing an uproar given (according to MSNBC) a black woman was given 5 years jail for voting irregularities.

GOP politicians have been heavily criticised by the courts for trying to downplay the insurrection as some type of incursion of tourists?? and giving aid and comfort to rioters. The GOP has been attempting to block investigation which is seen as an attempt to cover up with their collaboration with giving intelligence to the rioters including members of the Oath keepers and the Proud boys.

Time to jail republicans.

Let's hope this will be the first of many convictions - - including of any elected Republicans involved.

According to the DOJ's list, there are four guilty pleas in the Capitol riot case. The woman in question is on the list, but it has not been updated to acknowledge her plea and sentancing

How come none of the Antifa/BLM rioters have been sentenced?
They burned hundreds of businesses and government buildings, looted, assaulted people, even killed a few in their "mostly peaceful" protests. They even took over part of a major US city for several weeks. The mainstream media fawned over them and not one was brought to justice. The January 6 incident was not a riot let alone a coup or insurrection. It was criminal trespassing and stupid but no where near an "over through of democracy" as the Left calls it.
Don't think for a minute that the Leftist Democrats were sorry it happened either. I bet Nancy and Chuck were overjoyed by it. Its all political theater.

Strange ... members of QAnon and the KKK have said similar things.

Coincidence?

Perhaps. But that does not invalidate the question.

Well you are quite simply wrong, but that's ok.

It is the MAGAs who have a false alternate reality.

And they did arrest rioters during the BLM protests, just turns out a good amount of the arrests turned out being for non-violent offenses. I figure the ones deemed to have committed violent offenses did get sentenced.

Also, though it was not an organized attempt at insurrection of course more focus will be put on people who actually intended to harm our democracy with their little attempted coup.

How exactly was a bunch of unarmed people (mostly cosplayers) going to overthrow our country?
Who are these Antifa/BLMs that got arrested and prosecuted for non-violent burning down of a city?
Why do you believe the media and politicians who continually lie to you?

If the insurrectionists were Antifa in disguise then an Antifa person has been sentenced.

Just because a bunch of morons try to rob a bank with bananas instead of guns doesn't change the fact that they tried to rob a bank.

Just cos a bunch of MAGA-morons try to overthrow a government (or even simply hang mike pence) with nothing but spears and viking helmets doesn't change the fact that they TRIED. They had the gallows set up.

They just couldn't find Pence, cos he already left. If these people were so harmless, why didn't he want to hang around with them, I wonder...?

This alternate reality where the insurrection was both no big deal and peaceful, AND a horrible action committed by ANTIFA!, boggles the mind. Schroedinger's Bullsh!t. Where things both are and aren't whatever helps their narrative.

But hey, "all media and politicians are lying!", except the ones YOU listen to, of course :roll:

Apparently there's some really good kool-aid at the bottom of some of these rabbit-holes...

This smacks of what-about-ism.
While the Antifa/BLM demonstrations certainly at times got out of hand, at least they were protesting something legitimate - police brutality. What were the MAGA's doing? They were trying to overturn a legitimate and lawful election, out of belief in insane conspiracy theories. So there certainly was a difference.

This smacks of an overused buzzword, one to ironically deflect from a double standard whenever one is called out.

Buzzwords get overused because of the plethora of incidents to which they apply, such as the one above.
