A former chairman of the right-wing Proud Boys group was sentenced on Tuesday to 22 years in prison for his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the U.S. Capitol by supporters of Donald Trump trying to overturn the former president's election defeat.
“During the sentencing, US district judge Timothy Kelly, who was nominated to the bench by Trump, said the evidence suggested Tarrio was “the ultimate leader” of the seditious conspiracy, “the ultimate person, who organized, who was motivated by revolutionary zeal”.”

I can think of someone else, Judge Kelly. The tangerine nightmare that appointed you.
Ugh, right? Really sounds like they set up Tarrio to take the fall for Trump. Fuck that.
That’s the picture they’re painting, but unfortunately for them nobody’s buying it.
Unfortunately for us, someone probably will buy it. Somehow, there are millions of people who legitimately think Trump is the freaking Messiah.
That’s very true, but all of their minds were made up about that years ago. I know the average person is fucking stupid as fuck, but I can’t help but wonder how many people are still sitting on the fence when it comes to Trump.
Well, in most Western democracies, the really stupid seem to amount to about 10 to 20 percent (rising sadly). Due to a (completely intended) lack of education and decades of propaganda by the right, that amount seems to be about 30 percent in the US. That’s still very much a minority! On the other hand, Hitler only needed about 35 percent of the popular vote to dismantle democracy in Germany (different political system though).
Tangerine Nightmare. nice
Welcome to jaaaaazz club.
I don’t think it was either of them leading. It’s probably organized crime. Also probably why they try to amp up bitcoins… They got drug and trafficked Bitcoin they want to launder easier. Roger Stone, I think, is a closer connection to the real people puppeting these morons. Probably why Robert Kennedy jumped on board with the rightwing nonsense, because the mafia already killed JFK and he’s owned.
But yeah fuck em all.

That’s one evil heartless piece of shit right there. Gang gang.
Kind of a contradiction, no? If the crime is organized that implies there’s someone doing the organizing, a leader if you will.
this person is already lost. don’t bother interacting with logic.
Nah, there’s a difference between encouraging and actively planning.
