Good morning and Happy Tuesday to everyone who agrees that despite the fact that trump pardoned 1,500 violent rioters who assaulted US Capitol police 5 years ago, those thugs are all CRIMINALS.

Here is: Matthew Perna (seen in a red sweatshirt) on January 6, walking calmly inside the Capitol building for only 14 minutes to protest the overthrow of his government on November 3—after being invited in by Capitol Police, no less. Matthew pleaded guilty to the initial charges, believing he would face 6–12 months in prison. Only after pleading guilty did the domestic terrorists within the Department of Justice inform Matthew that they would seek a TERRORISM enhancement to his sentence, increasing his potential sentence to 9 years in federal prison. Just four days after receiving this news, Matthew went into his garage, put a fucking rope around his neck, and hung himself. In other words, they deliberately went after Americans and brought down the full weight of the U.S. government, including a death sentence, to prove a point—that November 3 was the ‘most secure election in U.S. history’. Now, where the fuck is the United States Attorney General? And damn you, the state media—every single one of you.
