[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Biden is just as protected by this as Trump.[/quote]

No he isn’t. The courts (ultimately the Supreme Court) will decide if whatever he did is protected. And what do you think they’ll decide? [/quote]

I think they - meaning the lower courts - judge the merits and decide on a case by case basis whether a president’s action is covered or not, but hopefully all this Dem initiated lawfare dies down and we don’t have to keep going to the judiciary for these battles.  Dems need to win at the ballot box not try to put their opponents in jail. Especially when Hilary (campaign finance) and Biden (documents) are doing the same things. [/quote]

This case is about insurrection.  No one else has done that.

Trump is the only president who launched a failed coup.  And he needs to be held accountable for it.[/quote]

You use these words yet have nothing to back it up. Trump wasn’t charged with insurrection. Nor were the rioters.

Yes, the Oath keepers and Proud Boys were convicted of insurrection.

On March 2, 2022, Oath Keeper Joshua James pleaded guilty to seditious conspiracy, admitting in his plea that "from November 2020 through January 2021, he conspired with other Oath Keeper members and affiliates to use force to prevent, hinder and delay the execution of the laws of the United States governing the transfer of presidential power."[103][104] Stewart Rhodes and Kelly Meggs, also of the Oath Keepers, were found guilty of seditious conspiracy on November 29, 2022.[105] Rhodes was sentenced to 18 years and Meggs to 12 years.[106]

On June 6, 2022, five members of the Proud Boys—their leader Enrique Tarrio, together with Joseph Biggs, Zachary Rehl, Ethan Nordean and Dominic Pezzola—were indicted for seditious conspiracy.[107] On May 4, 2023, all but Pezzola were convicted. A few months later, they were sentenced. Pezzola was sentenced on September 1, 2023.[108]
