Insurrection...absurd...
Sounds like they don’t like the Biden definition of free speech.
Good.
At least one person on the Supreme Court thinks freedom of speech is a problem because it limits the government.
I always found it interesting that the single largest armed populace in the world came to perform an insurrection without said arms.
The whole world is laughing at this “country’s justice system”. The biggest clown show on the planet. The Trump and JaySix fiascos are found to be hilarious by most foreigners. In fact, millions of foreigners are risking their lives wading in the Rio Grande to watch the American clown show. Water Buffalo Law and Banana Boat Carmen Miranda Hat “Judges” really cracks them up.
BTTT
John Solomon was openly calling for revolution on video, but he got a slap on the wrist.
“I always found it interesting that the single largest armed populace in the world came to perform an insurrection without said arms.”
Exactly, made up scenario for political purposes. No attempt was made to overthrow the government.
“I always found it interesting that the single largest armed populace in the world came to perform an insurrection without said arms”.
That’s a Winner!
Where is the evidence for that statement???
It was caught on video before he went into the Capitol posing as a reporter. He is “not listed as a member of BLM,” is the MSM’s sole defense of BLM. In other words, he’s with them in spirit and functioned as a provocateur.
Equally interesting is the SCOTUS’ April 15th opinion denying cert in a case involving a lawsuit against the leader of a BLM riot in Louisiana that resulted in a serious injury to a police officer: https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23pdf/23-373_8njq.pdf.
Sotomayor, writing for the Court, sent a message to the the courts below that based upon Counterman v. Colorado, 600
U. S. 66 (2023), “the First Amendment precludes punishment [for incitement], whether civil or criminal, unless the
speaker’s words were ‘intended’ (not just likely) to produce
imminent disorder.”
I also read this as a warning to the DOJ and the judge assigned to the Trump J6 trial, that the DOJ must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Trump actually intended to incite protesters to enter the Capital for the purpose of disrupting official proceedings concerning the 2020 election.
Thus, even if the SCOTUS agrees with the DOJ’s reading of 18 U.S.C. § 1512(c)(2), the charges may not survive a 1st Amendment Challenge.
BINGO! It was a protest against the rigged 2020 Biden installment. And an extremely peaceful one at that. Mostly feds that staged the capitol breach. The deep state were and remain unharmed.
John Sullivan not Solomon
compared to any of the BLM riots, J6 was actually a “mostly” peaceful protest.
Yeah, Kagan wants to look at the statute and case through a political lens.
Here is another good article at The Federalist by Margot Cleveland.
“Oral Argument In J6 SCOTUS Case Lays Bare DOJ’s Partisan Lawfare”
A weaponless revolution...how quaint. It’s a word....thousands of Patriots have used it. It’s a call for change not violence.
