justice to the real criminals. Just low-hanging fruit seems to be the DOJ way. And you are about to come into serious repercussions for the ineptness.
Good Luck.

What were these?





There needs to be some serious education about "charges" and "indictments" (which are "charges" ) and so many other things associated with the justice system.

as well.

including those who think those "under" the "top guy" are irrelevant because someone needs to go after the one "directing them" FIRST.

sources funding the whole thing.

(both federal and state) and at any time, superseding indictments could have been issued.

I think the intent was to make the case as tight as possible to reduce any chance of a long drawn out process when you have many defendants fighting the charges as part of the one case and adding even more delays.

But the courts made sure that even a "tight", "slam-dunk" case was not going to move either.

We can thank John Roberts for that. DOJ did their job and Roberts torpedoed the whole thing.

isn't necessarily an indication that there is a known list. It gets used as boilerplate catch-all, similar to using John Doe 1 through 100, so that it covers any people that may be found later and as you noted a revised filing can be made. It can also be a combo of having a cooperating witness who is "iffy" and so you don't indict by name but if they turn sour you can revise and add them in to being a named defendant. It can be a mishmash of all of the above.

Sometimes these conspiracy cases don't follow the traditional "get the little fish to rat on the big fish and keep working your way up" approach. I'm not saying they could have or should have immediately gone for the top but a couple of notches down like the funders of the motel rooms, buses etc. might have chastened some others on that same or nearly same level.

At the end of the day a major problem we have is the inability to get the incidents like 1/6 declared to be acts of terror and to label the support groups as terror groups. If we could, I doubt the political will is ever going to be there however, we could more easily and rapidly go after the ones who fund such things.

If he were black and it were any other time a guy was beating a cop - he'd be dead. And if somehow NOT dead, he'd get a helluva lot more than 4 years.


Of course there were very few non-white insurrectionists at the Jan 6 attack on the Capitol. (I don't know of any that I recall, but I presume there were a few)


Dude is a complete nutjob. SURE it was "spur of the moment". Just check out the photo in this article:

Nope, no premeditation of violence there at all ...

and Court-Martialed again due to the circumstances of his crime - attacking a Federal building and personnel/domestic terrorism

possibly land him 10 at Leavenworth

remorseful my ass
