So many prison sentences in his wake- none of them are his.

The hallmark of a truly innocent man.

She should be glad that the cops didn't decide to give her the Floyd treatment since she was at least resisting arrest, possibly assaulting the officer. They didn't even make her get down on the ground or tase her.

She’s white and affluent. In what world would that happen?

I can pretty much guarantee there are no experts associated with Mike Lindell.

On the one hand, I'm glad she's going to jail. On the other, I'm annoyed ASF that her main conspirator, the mango Mussolini is still not only walking free, but running for fucking president again.

Haha Tina enjoy your time in prison you asshole.

May she die of an embarrassing and uncomfortable medical condition exactly 5 minutes before being released.

Watched the sentencing. Judge was angry forsure

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

Well, he did have to put up with her being in the same court room as him. Personally, I feel sorry for the Judge, he didn't deserve this.

Rather light for treason, but it looks good on her.
