What’s the statute of limitations on the crimes committed on Jan 6?
Might be 8 years.
Better start rounding these a-holes up.
It’s looking more and more to me like: If you work for the government, you shouldn’t be allowed to handle information of any sort.
I’ve said it before but glad as I am in seeing these suckers behind bars, it’s the ones who planned it and the ones who instigated it I want to see in prison for a long, long time.
I’d trade all the Privates for the Generals and Colonels. It’s the only way to put a end to this madness.
It would be appropriate to have their trial for seven days in May.

The GOP are once again attacking the mechanisms of accountability in government. Because of course they are.
Accountability is just another name for blaming those responsible.
Well, be fair. It’s six syllables. Recognizing words that are two is a stretch.
No. No more of this “Little Fish for Big Fish” deal-making immunity-grabbing. All must pay. The only way to get rid of cockroaches is total eradication.
No More.
And don’t leave food laying around which would attract new ones.
Exactly.
A commendable sentiment; I sure wish I saw it more often.
I agree, but the big fish must go. The little fish (cockroaches) will of course scurry back under there rocks. But we must get rid of the big fish that turned over those rocks.

How about The Nine-Millimeter Pardon?
Re-education camps might be sufficient.

Here’s some fine lawyering. Apparently, the jury was given two videos that were not supposed to go to the jury room. Now they want a mistrial. The Judge was not having it.
Defense lawyer Juli Haller first flagged the mistake on Wednesday, prosecutors said, but the situation wasn’t brought to the judge’s attention until Friday. Haller, who has clashed with Mehta before, said that jurors had access to the footage for several days and have already come to a verdict on some counts.
“This is how trials work, for those of you who haven’t done it before,” Mehta responded. Defense attorneys were able to review the exhibits jurors were given, he said, and most had signed a filing that said they “jointly agreed on the exhibits” with prosecutors.
“None of the defense lawyers did what I instructed,” Mehta said.
