More double standard BS and more media bias "white nationalist".

But when BLM riots, it’s peaceful protest.

“Timothy James Kelly is a federal judge on the United States District Court for the District of Columbia. He was nominated to the court by President Donald Trump (R) on June 7, 2017”

[Spok]

The real crime is supporting Trump, but that doesn’t look good in print.

This is the McConnell stooge who restored Jim “Accoster Jimmy” Acosta’s press access to the White Hospice.

[JBW1949]

The First Amendment ONLY applies to leftist Communists, dontcha know????

We are not a nation of laws.

We are a nation of lawyers.

Lawyers work for whoever they think is paying them.

[AndyTheBear]

...they allegedly led a violent effort to overturn the presidential election not for speaking out against supposed election fraud as they claimed.

What actual violence did they do?

[Louis Foxwell]

to the conduct with which they have been charged,”

trespassing

[Bob434]

maybe they can claim it was ‘performance art’

[_Jim]

Yes or no -

WERE they charged with insurrection?

[Delta 21]

This was the group organised by a black guy who later turned out to be an FBI informant?

[high info voter]

And the FBI’s attack maker Ray Epps?????

“U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly said on Tuesday that the extremists are facing felony charges because they allegedly led a violent effort to overturn the presidential election not for speaking out against supposed election fraud as they claimed.”

Guilty without it even being proved.

[skeeter]

These precedents will come in handy one day, when its leftists standing in the docket. And they will be.

[AlexJonesIsRight]

No bias in this reporting. Nope, none at all.

[jz638]

“Defendants are not, as they argue, charged with anything like burning flags, wearing black armbands, or participating in mere sit-ins or protests,”

How do you hold a "sit-in" if you aren't already "in" a place that you had access to? Most of the people inside the capital on 6 January were let inside by the police and didn't have an understanding that the building was declared closed to the public.

[Glenmore]

Can they use ‘right to speedy trial’ as a defense?

[sten]

exercising their 1st Amendment rights to protest the coup was obviously why they were there.

if they were there to start an ‘insurrection’ they would’ve brought weapons. they didn’t.

[DesertRhino]

It’s absolutely tyranny for a judge to rule you may not use a certain defense. It may not be accepted by a jury, but an American should have the right to make any arguments he pleases.
