The unconstitutional treasonous traitors grind away at Patriots.

As Trump says, “They’re not coming after me, they’re coming after you.”

DJT will be charged...and convicted...of the very same things. It will take a DC jury less than 2 hours to hand down its “guilty” verdict...and The Big Guy’s puppet masters know it.

I wonder what other Oath Keepers might feel about such a sentence.

“In 2015, Mark Pitcavage of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) described the group as ‘heavily armed extremists with a conspiratorial and anti-government mindset looking for potential showdowns with the government’”

“Oath Keepers was founded in March 2009 by Elmer Stewart Rhodes, a Yale Law School graduate, former U.S. Army paratrooper, and former staffer for Republican Congressman Ron Paul.”

“In 2020, the ADL estimated there were between 1,000 and 3,000 members but said the group’s influence extends well beyond that figure. In September 2021, hackers breached the group’s servers to acquire a large cache of information, some of which was released to press outlets by Distributed Denial of Secrets, including the contact information of 38,000 apparent members. The cache included membership applications from active law enforcement officers, including some who sought to join after the 2021 United States Capitol attack. Dozens of elected officials were also found to be linked to the group.”

President Trump will be busy granting pardons, but not to members of the Biden crime family.

“Elmer Stewart Rhodes III was born in Fresno, California in 1966. His father was a U.S. Marine and his mother worked on a farm. As an adult Rhodes wrote about his father abandoning his mother and him when he was three years old and that he grew up with his mother and her Mexican-American family. Rhodes has described himself as ‘mixed-race’ and has ‘American-Indian’ and Hispanic maternal ancestors.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stewart_Rhodes

“Enroute to D.C., Rhodes personally spent $20,000 to purchase ‘a small arsenal.[24] On January 6, 2021, Rhodes entered ‘restricted Capitol grounds’....Rhodes attended a meeting where he was recorded saying ‘My only regret is that they should have brought rifles... We should have brought rifles.’”

[24: The NY Times link says he bought rifles with the $20,000.]

“Rhodes married Tasha Adams in 1994, after meeting her a few years earlier in Las Vegas. When they met Adams was 18 years old and working at an Arthur Murray Dance studio, and Rhodes was a 25 year old college student. Adams worked as an exotic dancer to financially support Rhodes’ education during their marriage. Prior to their marriage, Rhodes accidentally shot himself in the face with a .22 hand gun after dropping it, destroying his eyeball and leaving him using a prosthetic eyeball.

“Adams filed for divorce in 2018, accusing Rhodes of emotional and physical abuse. As of November 2022, the divorce application is pending. Adams and Rhodes have six children.”

“Amit Priyavadan Mehta (born 1971) is a United States district judge of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia and a Judge on the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court.”

“He received a Juris Doctor in 1997 from the University of Virginia School of Law, graduating Order of the Coif. He served as an associate at the law firm of Latham & Watkins from 1997 to 1998, leaving to clerk for Judge Susan P. Graber of the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit from 1998 to 1999. He served as an associate at the law firm of Zuckerman Spaeder, LLP from 1999 to 2002, and then as a staff attorney at the Public Defender Service for the District of Columbia from 2002 to 2007.”

“On June 1, 2021, Chief Justice John Roberts appointed Mehta to the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court.”

“In July 2019, Mehta sided with the pharmaceutical firms Merck & Co., Eli Lilly & Co., and Amgen Inc. by blocking a Trump administration rule requiring drugmakers to put prices in television ads, a central part of the president’s push to lower the cost of prescription medications.”

“He is also presiding over three civil lawsuits against former President Donald Trump and multiple associates, in which several congress members and two police officers are suing for damages for physical and emotional injuries they allegedly incurred during the attacks. On February 18, 2022, Mehta issued a lengthy opinion that rejected Trump’s claim of “absolute immunity” from lawsuits, finding that his actions were not part of his presidential duties, and that there was plausible evidence to suggest he engaged in a conspiracy with organized groups to use any means, including violence, to overturn the results of the 2020 election. The opinion allows the case to proceed, with the plaintiffs demanding documents, depositions, and other evidence from Trump and members of the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys. Mehta dropped several other co-defendants from the suit, including Rudy Giuliani, Donald Trump Jr., and Representative Mo Brooks.”

Judge Amit Mehta : “Shoot these rabid dogs. Death to this gang who hide their ferocious teeth, their eagle claws, from the people! Down with that vulture Rhodes, from whose mouth a bloody venom drips, putrefying the great ideals of progressivism! Down with these abject animals! Let’s put an end once and for all to these miserable hybrids of foxes and pigs, these stinking corpses! Let’s exterminate the mad dogs of Trumpism, who want to tear to pieces the flower of our enlightened and progressive nation! Let’s push the bestial hatred they bear our leaders back down their own throats! This dog of the Fascist bourgeoisie, this mad dog of Trumpism, deserves to be shot, but I can only sentence this accursed vermin to 25 years in prison.”

“As a prominent ideologist of Nazism, he influenced the Nazification of Germany’s legal system as a jurist. He attended the Wannsee Conference, the 1942 event which set the Holocaust in motion. He was appointed President of the People’s Court in 1942, overseeing the prosecution of political crimes as a judge, and became known for his aggressive personality, his humiliation of defendants, and frequent use of the death penalty in sentencing.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roland_Freisler

“In the late 1930s, during Joseph Stalin’s Great Purge in the Soviet Union, Freisler attended the Moscow Trials to watch the proceedings against the condemned.”

“He joined the Nazi Party in July 1925 as Member #9679, and gained authority immediately within the organisation by using his legal training to defend members of it who were regularly facing prosecutions for acts of political violence.”

“Freisler’s mastery of legal texts, mental agility, dramatic courtroom verbal dexterity and verbal force, in combination with his zealous conversion to Nazi ideology, made him the most feared judge in Nazi Germany, and the personification of Nazism in domestic law.”

“Between 1942 and 1945, more than 5,000 death sentences were decreed by him”

[He was killed by a USAAF bombing raid.]

They want us dead. 25 years may as well be a death sentence.

Meanwhile... Antifa and BLM terrorists walk free after DAs drop charges. Insurrectionist thugs are celebrated by the swamp, and democrats allow an army of millions walk across the border.
