wow - another sleepless night in trumpland
The whole is laughing
The tall daughter crying
The short one hasn't been seen in months
Jr is confused, he this dad is still the president
And Eric is on a flight to Costa Rica
Trump: “We had the safest border in the history of our country - or at least recorded history. I guess maybe a thousand years ago it was even better.”
... In addition to the nearly four-year prison sentence, he was also ordered to pay $2,000 in restitution and perform 60 hours of community service, according to the Department of Justice. He will have two years of supervised release after his sentence.
At the sentencing, the feds argued that Languerand “has a pattern of following conspiracy theories into belligerent confrontations with the people around him,” according to CBS News reporter Scott MacFarlane.
He’s also been previously accused of making threats, harassment, and stalking in Vermont.
MacFarlane reports the defense asked the judge to seek “middle ground” and sentence him to one year and one day in prison, to which the judge replied “How is that a middle ground? Between what?” ...

As far as I can tell, he supports protecting Trump from having his presidential records shone the light of day.
Clarence has "shone" once again that there's just nothing else like him.
Thomas, Coney-Barret, Kavanaugh: the SCOTUS BO trio. Oh, wait, there's also Gorsucks. Dang. "BO Trio" was such a nice description. "Mod Quad" just doesn't have the same ring to it. Wait again, there's Mosquito Alito, sucking the blood out of democracy. The Jive Five? Dang again. But, with CJ Roberts, that makes a 6-3 con majority. But at least Roberts occasionally votes with the libs. And at least Biden can appoint another non-con to replace Breyer. Just think of how horrible it would be had Trump got a second term. And we can always hope Thomas will kick the bucket before 2024.
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—As reports of a United States Supreme Court Justice retiring spread on Wednesday, millions of Americans were bummed that it wasn’t Clarence Thomas.
... Richard Barnard appeared in court on Friday for his sentencing hearing after he pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor of parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building.
“There’s nothing the court can do to me that will come even close to what I’ve lost,” Barnard told the judge, according to Politico....
Good.
... In a video from inside the Capitol obtained by the FBI, Witcher appeared to falsely believe that he and Barnard were in the White House.
“I am in the White House! We crashed this. Our house! We did it, family, we did it! We did it! We’re in the White House!” Witcher said.
Is he suffering because he's a traitor or because he's an idiot?
Other Trump supporters also appeared to believe they had stormed the White House, where then-President Donald Trump was living at the time.
Floridian Kenneth Kelly texted others that “patriots stormed the White House!” and “inside the White House via breaking in windows,” when he was in fact in the Capitol building.
Morons that fail very basic Civics. Irony.
... Witcher told agents that he took part in the insurrection because he believed that free speech was being stifled and that most of the US is “tone-deaf to discussion”. He added that he hoped that 6 January would be a peaceful protest that could provide avenues for debate.
The "free speech" to call the Capitol the White House? No one wants "discussion" and "debate" with a cretin that can't tell the difference.
... Barnard was sentenced on Friday to 12 months probation, 30 days of home confinement, 60 hours of community service, and $500 restitution, according to the Department of Justice. Witcher was sentenced on the same day to 12 months of probation, 60 hours of community service, and $500 restitution.
