    Seems a weak argument given the 60-something legal cases the trump contingent had lost by then. Ignorance of the law being no excuse and all that.

    This is big. now, more defendants in the attack on our capital and their physical abuse of LEO might take plea deals vs hoping for a favorable jury. It will be good to get thru this.

    “A jury in Washington, DC, on Tuesday found January 6 rioter Guy Reffitt guilty of all five charges he faced related to the US Capitol attack, in the pivotal outcome of the first federal trial related to the riot.”

    That’s the one where the son turned the father in, and the dad threatened the family “traitors get shot”. Despite this, the son testified against his father in the criminal case.

    Amazing how the kid has a pretty good head on his shoulders, yet his father - a 49 year old male was so completely out of his mind for Trump to the point he would actually threaten killing his own family. That kid and his family deserve to be taken care of, hopefully some college or charitable contribution him a full ride scholarship or something along those lines.

    I hope full restitution is a necessary component of any plea deals. There should be a large transfer of wealth from those defendants to the LEOs they attacked.

    So many folks talked about how the people who attacked our capital were "patriots", unarmed or other such idiocy. From the conviction of Reffitt:

    - He was convicted of carrying a gun at the capital during the attack.
    - He threatened his son and daughter for turning him in.
    - He was only subdued with rubber bullets and pepper spray as he tried to obstruct the vote count (convicted).

    This trial proves that anybody who says the attack on our capital was other than an action by violent, extremist traitors is lying.

    It is likely that he could provide testimony against several people the DOJ would be very interested in.

    Hah! Problem is that he made the announcement before the votes were all counted on election night. And kept saying it. Even after being told multiple times the election was not stolen by Barr and others. And, in any event, assuming Trump didn’t have fraudulent intent and was a pawn, Eastman told Trump the same thing.
