Maoist thought reform imposed on first January 6 defendant to be sentenced
American Thinker ^ | 26 Jun, 2021 | Thomas Lifson

Just affirm that this is an awful, racist country and that you are the beneficiary of white privilege, and you can escape lengthy imprisonment for “parading” in the Capitol.

Anna Morgan-Lloyd, the 49-year-old grandmother from Indiana who strolled into the US Capitol and spent several minutes peacefully walking around, got the same message that was delivered to Chinese dissidents and “bad elements” during Mao’s Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution: confess to thought crimes, embrace the state-sanctioned ideology, and you will be shown mercy. In the case of Morgan-Lloyd, the message was delivered to her by her own defense lawyer, a public defender paid by taxpayers. And it worked. She received three years’ probation, a $500 fine, and no incarceration beyond the two days she had spent in jail following her arrest.

Julie Kelley describes at American Greatness the imposition of an ideological test on a defendant whose own lawyer was in on the brainwashing initiative:

My lawyer has given me names of books and movies to help me see what life is like for others in our country. I’ve learned that even though we live in a wonderful country things still need to improve. People of all colors should feel as safe as I do to walk down the street.”

That passage is part book report, part white privilege mea culpa submitted to a federal court this month by Anna Morgan-Lloyd, one of the more than 500 Americans arrested for her involvement in the events at the U.S. Capitol on January 6

Her lawyer, Heather Shaner, also represents other 1/621 defendants, and apparently is recommending the thought reform confessions to toher clients:

This is one of the worst things I’ve seen yet. Essentially, the government is giving them their freedom if they come out renouncing everything they believed before, about America, about human society and about reality.

This is shameful. And nobody, none of our elected representatives, not even Trump or anybody on his team, has the stones to speak out about it and defend the rights of these prisoners.

Pretty soon it’s going to be too late. Way before we get another round of elections. This is moving fast.

She is on probation. Any attemot to rescind her confession will be met with imprisonment for the completion of her wentence.

Absolutely.

And last night there was a thread about a governor (I forget which state) who was proposing more lenient probation (for ordinary garden variety criminals) if they would consent to being vaccinated. Essentially, the government is giving them their freedom if they agree to sign up for medical experiments.

The slippery slope on these things is very steep now, and very slippery.

The needle went up to sixty.

‘How many fingers, Winston?’

‘Four! Four! What else can I say? Four!’

The needle must have risen again, but he did not look at it. The heavy, stern face and the four fingers filled his vision. The fingers stood up before his eyes like pillars, enormous, blurry, and seeming to vibrate, but unmistakably four.

‘How many fingers, Winston?’

‘Four! Stop it, stop it! How can you go on? Four! Four!’

‘How many fingers, Winston?’

‘Five! Five! Five!’

‘No, Winston, that is no use. You are lying. You still think there are four. How many fingers, please?’

‘Four! five! Four! Anything you like. Only stop it, stop the pain!’

(1984)

There is no need to question, how could Germans have allowed Nazis to do what they did to the Jews. People with the same mentality, power, and cruelty are among the ruling elite today in this country.

If it were up to the many members of the communist wing of the DemonRat Party, they’d do what the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia did, via the infamous "Killing Fields", or what Obama’s pals in the Weather Underground wanted to do...

Undercover agent Larry Grathwohl discusses the 1960-70s Weather Underground’s post-revolution governing plans for the United States...

Larry Grathwohl:

I asked, ‘well what is going to happen to those people we can’t reeducate, that are diehard capitalists?’ and the reply was that they’d have to be eliminated.

And when I pursued this further, they estimated they would have to eliminate 25 million people in these reeducation centers. And when I say ‘eliminate,’ I mean ‘kill.’ Twenty-five million people.

I want you to imagine sitting in a room with 25 people, most of which have graduate degrees, from Columbia and other well-known educational centers, and hear them figuring out the logistics for the elimination of 25 million people. And they were dead serious.”

Kill all the rich people. Break up their cars and apartments.
Bring the revolution home, kill your parents, that’s where it’s really at

—Bill Ayers, co-founder of the communist-revolutionary Weather Underground, 1970 — quoted in The New York Times, September 11, 2001

_______________________

It was at the Chicago home of [Bill] Ayers and [Bernardine] Dohrn that Obama, then an up-and-coming ‘community organizer,’ had his political coming out party in 1995.

Not content with this rite of passage in Lefty World - where unrepentant terrorists are regarded as progressive luminaries, still working ‘only to educate’ - both Obamas tended to the relationship with the Ayers.”

As a gesture of solidarity, the Vietnamese who [Bernardine] Dohrn met in Budapest presented her with a ring made from an American aircraft shot down over North Vietnam.

Bill Ayers would receive a similar ring while meeting with Vietnamese communists in Toronto. He later recalled being so moved by the gesture that he ‘left the room to cry.’

They can’t imprison all conservatives. They can demand that each person renounce conservatism or else face punishment. 90% will surrender their beliefs,and the remaining 10% will have their wealth seized and be imprisoned.

They were discussing the logistics. For some reason I’d never caught that before. As he’s alive today that means there’s a plan somewhere with all the details worked out. Lefties always have a plan.

Justice in the good old USA, a 49 year old grandma gets convicted by walking in the “people’s house” protesting a fraudulent election and a coup against the POTUS. While a commie government enforcer murders a young American veteran carrying a Trump flag in cold blood and the government does not charge or identifies the murderer. Is it because the murderer is a black man, a BLM advocate, immigrant from Brazil?

Bill Ayers, and his co-terrorist, revolutionary communist wife, Bernardine Dohrn.
Both were leaders of the Weather Underground.

=======================================

The “Black Lives Matter” movement is partnered with the nonprofit group, Thousand Currents.

This is important because the Vice Chair of the Thousand Currents nonprofit, is [former Weather Underground member] Susan Rosenberg.

In 1985, Rosenberg was convicted for possessing hundreds of pounds of explosives. She and her organizations involved in multiple robberies, police officer assassinations, and bombings.

Rosenberg was sentenced to 58 years in prison. She spent 16-years in federal prison before being pardoned by Bill Clinton on his last day in office.

Now, Rosenberg is leading the fundraising efforts for Black Lives Matter. ...”

A member of the [communist-revolutionary] Weather Underground and other radical organizations which used violence as a tool for political change, Rosenberg was sentenced to 58 years in federal prison after being arrested for possession of explosives and weapons during the planning of a number of bombing operations. [1]

She was also a suspect in a 1981 armored car robbery which left one guard and two officers dead.

She was released in 2001 when then-President Bill Clinton commuted her sentence. [2] ...”

“After Rosenberg’s parole request was denied, President Bill Clinton commuted her sentence on his last day in office. ...”

Clinton also commuted the 40-year sentence of Rosenberg co-conspirator Linda Sue Evans. [35]

Evans was imprisoned for 11 counts of false identification used to purchase firearms and for harboring a fugitive related to the armored car murders. [36]

She was also convicted in 1990 for participating in a number of terrorist bombings, including at the U.S. Capitol Building. [37]”
