23. My favorite J6er . . .

. . . is the one who, about two days after Trump pardoned him, he was back home where he was stopped by a local sherrif's deputy for a traffic violation. The fool pulled a pistol on the deputy, refused to put it down, so, the deputies put him down.

Oh, but wait, I have another favorite J6er.

Not far from where I lived was a Virginiia Regional Jail. Because we were 2.5 - 3 hours from DC, federal inmates were housed there awaiting trial. Some of our local MAGAts got all cranked up because these poor souls were being mistreated in the jail. (They were not.) My favorite was the J6er who claimed he was gluten intolerant so the jail had to prepare special diet for him -- wash his dishes separate from all others, etc. Oh, but wait -- one of the jail guards got pissed off at the clown and released a list of the stuff the guy was buying from the jail commissary: honey buns, ramen noodles, and other sweets -- not exactly gluten-free.

Last month in Florida a pardoned J6er was sentened to life for child rape. One of his victims claimed the guy told them to not tell anyone because he was going to get a lot of money from Trump and would share it with them.

As best I can tell, 40 - 50 of those pardoned are back in jail or facing local or state charges.
