Cohen says Jan. 6 sentences ‘should be a warning’ for Georgia defendants
The Hill ^ | 09/06/2023 | SARAH FORTINSKY

Former Trump attorney Michael Cohen said the lengthy sentences handed down to Jan. 6 defendants “should be a warning” to former President Trump’s co-defendants in the Georgia election case.

In an interview on CNN, Michael Cohen, who served as former President Trump’s fixer, warned that the 18 other defendants in the Georgia case are likely to face prison sentences that are “equally as painful” as that of former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio.

Yeah, the Dems are creating a legal gulag for people they don’t like.

We need to pray that the system is not so corrupt that we can take power again. Then we need to hope the the GOP uses the power.

That comment may just be a comment to folks younger than I.

It’s a threat coming from the new unelected commie ‘administration’.

The fact they have kept those for so long.. With no charges. Just free Americans who disagreed with the coup who used the gov to attack..

I will never come to grips with the laid back attitude while being fenced in.. More and more. Elect Biden? His mind gone? You’d give him the seat as President? Am I missing something?

Trump will pardon every single one of the 01/06 defendants.

I believe he will gut the DOJ and FBI leaderships as well.

I believe the media will be given a choice of becoming
an impartial ‘just the fact mam..’ media, or have their
licenses revoked, or other methods used to severely hamper
their propaganda apparatus.

Exemplary sentences are political terrorism.

Yes.

The whole idea of banana republic kangaroo courts and lawfare against the political opponents is to frighten the other side into giving up.

It has seemed to work except for the one exception: Trump.

Warning defendants is called a Threat.
A lawyer should know the danger of making threats.

Enrique Tarrio received a 22 year prison sentence and was not even in Washington on Jan. 6, 2021, let alone in the Capitol building.

And December 25, 1989 should be a warning sign for people like Cohen.
