After nine weeks of testimony from multiple government witnesses, including FBI agents, the Justice Department finally concluded its case-in-chief in the Proud Boys’ seditious conspiracy trial on Monday.
Five Proud Boys, including the group’s leader, Enrique Tarrio, are accused of conspiring to “oppose the lawful transfer of presidential power by force” on January 6, 2021. It is Attorney General Merrick Garland’s most consequential case related to January 6; convictions will help build a similar case against Donald Trump largely based on his infamous “stand back and stand by” remark to the Proud Boys during an October 2020 presidential debate.

So now it’s against the law to think an election is stolen and to speak to that point in public? Where is the crime? They weren’t there to physically stop the transfer- but rather to just to protest that the election was stolen! Last i checked- we are allowed to have opinions and to protest-
Kelly would make Nazi judge Roland Freisler proud.
What is to prevent Congress from calling Kelly to testify why his trials are secret?
