Judge to Capitol riot defendant: 'Patriotism is loyalty to country
Judge to Capitol riot defendant: 'Patriotism is loyalty to country, loyalty to the Constitution'
Patriotism is not loyalty to charlatan, fool, and clownish idiot?!!
(CNN) A federal judge rejected the argument that US Capitol rioters held in jail are being prosecuted for their political views and disavowed attempts to downplay the magnitude of the deadly insurrection during a sentencing on Wednesday.
"You called yourself and everyone else patriots, but that's not patriotism," Judge Amy Berman Jackson said of defendant Karl Dresch. "Patriotism is loyalty to country, loyalty to the Constitution, not loyalty to a head of state. That is the tyranny we rejected on July 4."
Jackson, known for her sharp criticism of the Trump administration's moves, called Dresch an "enthusiastic participant" in the effort "to subvert democracy, to stop the will of the people and replace it with the will of the mob."
The federal court in Washington, DC, has repeatedly acted as a referee about the severity of the January 6 attack, with several judges expressing their disgust with defendants' actions and the shocking violence and details being made public as Capitol riot cases move through the courts and prosecutors reveal evidence they've gathered.

The right wing is authoritarian. They do not respect the rule of law.

how ironic, that YOU would say that.......with a straight face even
A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

Awesome. No doubt all the nutjobs are regretting trusting Trump would pardon them.

True, but it's also time served. This doesn't look good for all the violent assholes who murdered Americans and attacked our Capitol.
"Dresch, 41, pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of illegally demonstrating in the Capitol building, which has become a typical plea deal that the Justice Department has offered to nonviolent rioters who did not go far into the building. Jackson sentenced Dresch to six months in jail. He will be released Wednesday because he has been in jail since mid-January and will receive credit for time already served."

Why do Trumpians always favor activist judges?

Projection. Fucking Trumpers hate judges who don't rule the way they like so, as Trump did, they install activist judges on the bench.

Let me get this straight ... a judge appointed by President Donald J Trump is an activist judge ???

How cluelessly typical you would say that. The judge's simple, clear and point on statement that patriotism is loyalty to The Constitution not loyalty to "the head of state" sailed right over your head.
