I was hoping a defendant from the protest on January 6th 2021 would eventually take their case to the Supreme Court. What the DOJ is doing to these defendants is a definite violation of the Eight Amendment.

"Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted."

Absent media attention, the J6 political trials are as secret as any conducted in the Soviet Union.

Who wants to bet the “Supreme” Court punts and declines the case while acceding to slow motion totalitarianism?

Americans really don’t stand a chance in Federal Courts. They only exist so foreigners, freeloaders, and invaders are guaranteed their American Constitutional rights.

Another stolen election and the next “insurrection” at the Capitol could resemble the storming of the Bastille.

The supreme court has shown that it has no interest in things like this. Not even the “Conservative Justices”. They believe the elections were fair and that everything the government has done in regards to the election is on the up and up. They certain don’t believe that J6 was a setup.

American citizens have no standing in cases involving the destruction of their liberty or right to a speedy trial.

Talk about interacting with your government!

He's seen the Highest Legislative branch in action
so now it's the turn of the Judicial branch.

Might the third branch be needed for a pardon?
