Throw away the key.
Who is the idiot responsible for rewarding this traitor only 4 years in jail (if that)? Is that what this creep was able to bargain it down to?
Maybe he’ll tunnel through a wall and escape. It’s not impossible, just unlikely.
Why escape, he’s a Chicom hero and has only four years to wait out the final rise of China to superiority over the US. It is the judge and the court who need to face the firing squad, if we want to stop this insanity.
Didn’t that used to be punished with electrocution?
Treason should be and was a death sentence. Somewhere America has lost its way. We are witnessing the decline of a nation.
Agreed. Here's to hoping this scumbag is murdered in prison.
No, the industry doesn't seem to matter. The ChiComs take any and all data and are masters at making it relevant.
We really need to reevaluate ALL of our immigration policy.
He is either going to hang himself or be shot trying to escape. We haven’t decided which yet. (Casablanca)
As soon as he serves his four-plus years, he and his entire family should be stripped of their US citizenship and sent back to China, where their loyalties reside. If we would execute a few of these pukes, they might think twice.
He should be killed.
