This week, Karl Rove, the political genius who guided former President George W. Bush to two election victories, predicted that Trump's pledge to review all the cases of the January 6 defendants and pardon those who deserve clemency"will sink his campaign. There isn't an innocent person in the whole bunch. They illegally trespassed on government property while official proceedings were underway."
Rove rejected claims that the mostly peaceful January 6 demonstrators should be treated the same way that those demonstrating against the death of George Floyd in 2020 while in the custody of Minneapolis police officers were, saying "none of the Floyd protesters terrified the members of Congress like the January 6 crowd did. The billions of dollars in property damage and the 19 deaths that occurred during the Floyd protests did not directly challenge the right of the national government's rule over the people. They were not insurrectionists."
One of the "thugs" that Rove feels needs to be taught to obey the law is 71-year-old grandmother Rebecca Lavrenz. This week she was convicted of entering the Capitol through wide-open doors at 2:43 pm on January 6, 2021 and exiting at 2:53 pm. The penalty for her misdemeanor infractions could amount to fines up to $200,000 and up to one year of imprisonment.
Meanwhile, the Department of Justice (DOJ) has refused to disclose the identity of suspected FBI agents present in the January 6 crowd. January 6 defendant William Pope asserts that "they are witnesses crucial to my defense." A redacted DOJ spokesman explained that "every advanced nation has secret police. We can't expect to keep up with our adversaries if we don't exploit this same capability. The enemies of democracy are the most serious problem this country has ever had to face. Suppressing this threat is a risky job. The identities of the brave men, women and non-binary individuals doing this job must remain private. There is already enough evidence to convict Mr. Pope without any testimony from these agents."

Your time is short.
How short, oh wise one?
We shall find out, won’t we.
Oh I suppose. If it happens, it happens. No biggie.
You’ll get a new ID.
And I will find you and get you banned again.
Well you’ve been successful so far. Have they’ve grown weary of your 2nd grade like tattling? Whatever happens, happens. Now I’m going to enjoy my beautiful day.
Bush fondly described Rove as a turd blossom. I would modify that and leave out blossom.
Why glorify imprisoning patriots like Samsel, Lang, Rhodes, or the praying grandmother?
There’s this wonderful thing called the internet that has all those dates. I am not your research assistant.
Prison really changed you.
Yes. So tragic seeing you being taken by b*tch*s. But you seemed to enjoy it. That always puzzled me.
I’ve never been to prison, but clearly you have. You even admit it.
Re: 49 - LOL.
Understand.
Republicans were in the Presidency and controlled the House and the Senate for much of the 2000 - 2010 time period for example. They could have opted to charge Code Pink, Sheehan, etc for more serious offenses.
You admitted you’ve lied. If I’ve been there, I saw you taking it. And Maxwell Smart used to say, and loving it.

You seem obsessed with homosexual anal sex. It’s because you are a ‘bottom’.
Must come from all those years you spent in prison.
No just seeing you give it up. So easily. Almost as if you really wanted it. Horrible sight. So sad.
You are so gay.
Sorry about your luck.
Go peddle your anal sex fantasies with one of your gay ‘friends’.
WHOA! I just figured it out. You are a liberal because you are gay.
You are an anal-sex obsessed tumble-boy fag.
