The New York Times editors could barely contain their glee. “Conservative Family Scion Sentenced to Nearly 4 Years for Jan. 6 Attack.” The subhead spelled out the details: “Leo Brent Bozell, the son and grandson of influential right-wing figures, shattered a windowpane in the Capitol, pursued a police officer and made his way into the speaker’s office during the pro-Trump riot.”
If the conservative movement has royalty, the Bozell family can rightfully claim a place in court. Leo’s father, L. Brent Bozell III, is the founder of the Media Research Center, and his grandfather, L. Brent Bozell, Jr., was a founding father of the National Review. Leo’s grandmother is Patricia Buckley Bozell, and his great-uncle is William F. Buckley, the original editor of the National Review and the public face of American conservatism for nearly a half-century.
Although Leo “Zeeker” Bozell, 44, gave up his claim to the Bozell throne long ago for the quiet life of construction work in small-town Pennsylvania, he had name enough to bring out the inner Stasi in the DOJ’s weaponized prosecutorial corps.
Bozell’s mistake was to pay more attention to the 2020 election campaign than was good for him. “He came to believe,” the Times reports with astonishment, “that the results of the race had been ‘rigged’ against President Donald J. Trump.” The Times editors chose to ignore the unconstitutional changes in state election laws and the obvious vote-harvesting in key cities. But to overlook 51 intel officials falsely swearing that Hunter Biden’s laptop was a Russian op is malpractice bordering on treason.
Although Bozell’s window-breaking would not net a top-ten spot in a list of Kennedy family disgraces, it was crime enough to trigger the partisan warriors of Biden’s DOJ. A married father of three daughters, he accepted responsibility for breaking the windows.

NOTE: The DOJ has close to a 100-percent conviction rate. Not coincidentally, it also has a 100-percent success rate in denying venue change out of a district that gave Trump 5 percent of its vote in 2020.
What was surprising was the “Terrorism Enhancement” prosecutors asked for, allegedly because Bozell destroyed property in a quest to alter government policy. “In DOJ’s view,” argues Bozell’s former attorney William Shipley, “breaking two windows on Jan. 6 was analogous to flying a commercial airliner into downtown high rise office buildings.”
The original probation report suggested a guideline range of 17 to 20 years. When the DOJ filed its sentencing statement, however, prosecutors asked for “only” 140 months, a little less than 12 years.
It's gonna get ugly when the worm turns.
If.
One can only hope...
The worm has already turned with the show trial of President Trump in Wetback Cur’s kangaroo court in New Jerk sChitty.
let’s HOPE you are right that the worm has turned in that trial. PRAYING much for tomorrow.,
First I’m hearing Brent Bozell’s son being arrested for Jan 6
Democrats cannot be convicted with a DC/NoVA/MD jury pool. A 47 justice department really needs to figure a way to take their charges on the road.
RE: First I’m hearing Brent Bozell’s son being arrested for Jan 6
Brent Bozell explained everything in Mark Levin’s show tonight. Listen to it here:

The interview starts at 1 hour and 26 minutes of the show.
And when the J6 political prisoners are pardoned and issued slapjacks and other implements of self-preservation it will be Pogrom to be remembered for antiquity.

RE: I believe the Constitution requires that federal criminal trials must be held in the state or district where the crime occurred.
So, what is Trump’s current trial in NYC considered?

I think some people are arguing that they’re trying to make it a federal crime, but tried in New York State court. The federal crime is election interference or something.
RE: The trial in NYC is a state trial for alleged crimes committed in NY.
Therefore, the venue should have been changed to a more neutral ground, say, a purple county like Long Island. But it wasn’t.
RE: The federal crime is election interference or something.
The FEC knew about it but refused to bother to prosecute.
