90 days for trying to overthrown the government and verbally attacking the judge. What a fucking joke of a sentence.

Hey it's not like he did something insanely criminal, like owning a negligible amount of cannabis to enjoy in the privacy of his own home.

How about trying to vote with a provisional ballot after being told it's okay to vote and then being thrown in jail because it wasn't okay to vote.

You forgot to add that she did all of that while being black. If she had had the good sense to be white, she probably wouldn't have spent 5 years in jail.

Meanwhile Republicans who admitted to intentional vote fraud by voting in the name of others got almost nothing
