I woke up on the wrong side of the bed today and this ain't helping... but anyway, here's Judge Roy Lamberth everyone!
"In my thirty-seven years on the bench, I cannot recall a time when such meritless justifications of criminal activity have gone mainstream,” Lamberth lamented in a seven-page public court filing."
Though he did not mention Trump by name, Lamberth specifically called out language used by Trump and, more recently, Trump allies like Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.), describing Jan. 6 defendants as “hostages.”
“I have been shocked to watch some public figures try to rewrite history, claiming rioters behaved ‘in an orderly fashion’ like ordinary tourists, or martyrizing convicted January 6 defendants as ‘political prisoners’ or even, incredibly, ‘hostages,’” he wrote. “That is all preposterous. But the Court fears that such destructive, misguided rhetoric could presage further danger to our country.”
It was a remarkable jeremiad from a veteran jurist who has presided over dozens of Jan. 6 criminal cases and more than 10 trials. Lamberth issued his comments in connection with sentencing proceedings for James Little, a Jan. 6 misdemeanor defendant who has decried his case as a political prosecution and said the government is trying to suppress his free speech rights.
I would love to but I have to go to work
Yep! You nailed the POS right.
agreed... POS
The DS puppets are doubling down on their verbal brainwashing! Annoyingly this is working with the dems I know. I wonder why because we know others are waking up.
This bitch judge knows exactly what he is doing. Save the BS for the disbarment you will face. Sloppy, one sided political corruption in the courts. His time is coming. Corruption in the courts
The Jan 6 peaceful patriot protestors are definitely hostages. There is no other word that fits the facts.
