Bet you didn't know there IS an American gulag!
It's possible that this guy is NOT "prisoner #1" in that place. But he's damned close.
In September 2019, Couy Griffin, founder of Cowboys for Trump, met with President Trump in the Oval Office.
His group, according to its website, believes “securing our border, protecting our Second Amendment, and protecting the lives of the unborn are the most vital and key aspects in America’s Greatness.” Trump supporters riding on horseback—often carrying American flags and Trump banners—participated in rallies across the country to show support for the president.
Today, Griffin sits in a jail cell denied bail.
Prosecutors charged Griffin with one minor count of trespassing as part of the Justice Department’s sweeping investigation into the events of January 6. Griffin, who is a county commissioner in New Mexico, never entered the Capitol but investigators scoured his social media account to find evidence that he was “well within the restricted area” of the building....
Got that? He was 'well within the restricted area.'
That's it.
He didn't burn, loot, or murder; murder was the act of a Cap Cop. No burning, sorry; and he didn't walk out with anyone's podium, either.
He was inside the building.
...He is, for all intents and purposes, a political prisoner. In fact, some FBI filings refer to unnamed protestors as “insurrectionists.” The seditious cake is baked....
Actually, this gets worse!
...what’s most disturbing is that several defendants are being held without bail for versions of the same crimes unpunished thousands of times during the Black Lives Matter/Antifa riots last year.
“Judges have agreed with prosecutors in more than two dozen cases to hold defendants because there are no release conditions that would ensure the safety of the community,” BuzzFeed News reported last week. “Even when judges have ordered home detention, prosecutors have argued it’s not enough to prevent future violence and interference with ongoing investigations.”
For example, Robert Sanford, a retired firefighter, has been in a Pennsylvania county jail since his arrest January 14. He’s charged with four counts including assaulting officers; the FBI alleges he threw something resembling a fire extinguisher at a group of Capitol police.
Sanford will remain behind bars until his trial. Government lawyers accused Sanford of belonging to an “extremist” group because when Sanford’s home was raided after he turned himself in, “agents found a T-shirt worn by members of the white supremacist group the Proud Boys.” (Sanford denied the association.)...
And YOU thought that this was "America."
Fool.
