It’s a preposterous sentence just for the threats.

But I didn’t realize he had pipe bombs too. It’s pretty lenient for pipe bombs I guess.

Club Fed.

Lots of time to sleep and read, lift some weights, eat well, and develop life long relationships.

Usually, the federal prosecutor frowns upon pipe bombs.

As often as people clutch their pearls over threatening the president, it is difficult to find anyone going to prison over such threats.

Possession of pipe bombs is a different issue, though. A multi-year prison sentence for mere possession of pipe bombs is not unheard of.

The headline of this article is so misleading when it attributes the prison sentence to "threats" that it can almost be considered fake news.

No problem with that. NOW let’s have the DOJ do the same thing to the communist terrorists of BLM and ANTIFA who’re doing the same to PRESIDENT Trump and his supporters.

Comey was a leftist POS. Of course he was “too busy.” Glad Trump had the stones to fire his leftist @##.

I’ll agree with you. He is an adult and is going to get a huge lesson to put a filter on his mouth.
