Seems like a fair decision, along with being a rebuke to the fascists.

Stay the ---- out of our courtrooms, our polling places, and our taquerias, Nazi pigs

Professional courtesy. She was convicted of a crime and faced almost no consequences. This is not justice.

She now has to worry about getting 10 bullets in the back from an ICE thug.

Re 4

Whaaa! Now you are suddenly concerned about "justice"?

Old man Trumpy was convicted of 32 Felonies by a jury of his peers. (And accused of many many more crimes)

But. Absolutely. No. Consequences. Zip. Nada. None.

Was it Justice?

Re 6

Accused and indicted ... 91 felony counts across four separate criminal indictments.

His case is still pending in appeals. The two situations are not the same.

Re 8

No they are not the exactly same. And yes many of the cases he is involved in are still being appealed. Duh?

Trumpy will be appealing court cases against him until the bitter end. And his crime family will be still appealing them even after. While appealing their own numerous convictions.

BullBringer would have sent the Germans who helped the Jews to the concentration camps.

Are you suggesting that he's not entitled to the same appeals process the rest of us are entitled to?

Nope. Obviously.

I am suggesting that Trumpy is a criminal and will be spending the rest of his life be appealing judgements against him until the end of (his) time.

While I will be at the beach or in the redwoods hanging out with my dog and the grandkids making smores and enjoying my retirement.

I thought it was pretty clear.

Justice would be Dump in prison for January 6th. His supporters are delusional pieces of $#!+

Why would breaking the law give someone jail time?

You could even be guilty of stealing $7M dollars and the judge would go ... meh I like your brown skin.... you can go!

Lawyers and Judges are usually held to a higher standard than lay people. Forget about it Jake, it's Madison.

This case could have been in NYC: a Jewish judge decently sentences an Irish first-time offender.

Keep an eye on EDNY USDJ Nina Morrison.

Her Honor is following in the footsteps of the immortal Jack Winestein.

She was helping a person being Railroaded.

It was hardly a "crime" at all.

Slap on the Wrist is Too Much.

Trump Pardons War Criminal Murderers.

Eddie Gallagher, a Murdering Scum, got Pardoned and Used as a prop at Trump Rallies.

That's "Rule of Law" to the Visitard.

US Presidents used to be held to higher standards.

Not anymore.

When we place even one man above the law there is no law.
