The insurrection updates here in IST…..
Remember all those insurrectionists that were in our august body known as the US Congress…elected officials that egged on the insurrection?
Well some of them are running for office and/or re-election…..like the moron from Kansas, Roger Marshall….after supporting the insurrection caused by the Big Lie he now wants to move on and be re-elected…..
One Republican senator argued on Saturday that it’s time for people to stop asking him about why he voted with the insurrectionists the night of the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol.
CNN anchor Pamela Brown noted a new poll showing that 70% of Republicans believe the “Big Lie” that Donald Trump won the 2020 election.
“You voted to toss out millions of votes in Arizona and Pennsylvania, you also joined on to the Texas lawsuit attempting to throw out votes cast in four states,” Brown noted as Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) nodding his head in affirmation.
“Look Pamela, it’s so — we’re just so ready to move on,” Marshall replied.

My thought to this fool is….”I will possibly move on from your betrayal of the nation when you and your morons move on from the “Big Lie”……in other words….F*CK YOU!
He is not alone.
There is a slew of insurrectionists that will be running for office in 2022…
From Nebraska to New Jersey, attendees of the now-infamous rally that became a riot are campaigning for elected office. One—a longshot Michigan candidate who previously organized anti-lockdown rallies in his home state—even appears to have entered the Capitol.

Why would any true American vote for anyone that holds the beliefs these political slugs hold?
We already have enough spineless fools in Congress why send more?
Bad news for the country.
All the multiple arrests made because of the insurrection…the news is that most will not face jail time….
More than 400 people have been charged with federal crimes in the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol—but prison time may be another story. With new defendants still flooding into DC’s federal court, the Justice Department is under pressure to quickly resolve the least serious of cases. While defendants charged with crimes such as conspiracy and assaulting officers during the insurrection could be looking at hefty sentences, some members of the mob who weren’t caught joining in the violence or destruction could see little to no time behind bars, per the AP. “The people who were just there for the ride and somewhat clueless … most of them they probably will not get prison time,” says Rachel Barkow, a professor at the New York University School of Law. “Having a misdemeanor on their record, going through all this is probably a pretty big wake-up call for most of the folks.” It’s also a formidable task for lawyers and judges alike to determine the appropriate punishment to seek and hand down.
Many defendants had steady jobs and no criminal records, factors typically rewarded with leniency in the criminal justice system. Of the more than 400 federal defendants so far, at least 100 are facing only lower-level crimes such as disorderly conduct and entering a restricted area, which don’t typically result in time behind bars for first-time offenders. Hundreds more were also charged with more serious offenses—like conspiracy, assault, or obstruction of an official proceeding—that carry hefty prison time of years behind bars, but theses defendants may take pleas that would wipe those charges from their cases. If prosecutors seek stiff sentences for the lowest-level defendants, they’ll be juggling hundreds of cases going to trial instead of focusing on the major offenders, Loyola Law School professor Laurie Levenson notes. “If there’s any pressure on the [DOJ], it’s to deal with these cases in a way so that you never have to see them again,” she says.
I say screw these traitors…there is lots of room at Gitmo…..why not use the space to punish these worthless tools?
If they must go free then fine the piss out of them….give them something to think about and remember their threat to the nation.
I want everyone on of these pricks to face what they have done.
This is not over…..
Watch This Bog!

“lego ergo scribo”
I predict a huge number of plea-bargains, pleading guilty to a lesser offence. That will save court time, and make it appear that there were a lot of ‘convictions’.
Best wishes, Pete.
I agree with Pete. The majority of convictions will result in slaps on the wrists.
Should not be acceptable,,,they are traitors and should be treated as such…period chuq
So they say…me? I want to fools persecuted. chuq
