You must live under a rock since the invention of the internet. Or worked for the Biden DOJ.

The attached article explains the joke.

Well, I’m probably much older than you, and I do not live in the internet culture.

That said, I’ve been a prosecutor and jurist in a large blue state for a combined 50+ years, and still practice, although only in business litigation.

I have never seen a prosecution like this one, and it’s inconceivable that any resulting conviction would merit any custody time.

Times have changed.

Thanks.
