He did something wrong, something horrible, Linker said, according to The Washington Post, but he did not commit these two federal charges.Sorry, deluding yourself into believing the person you intended to kidnap and their husband who you assaulted are part of some conspiracy nonsense does not mean you didn't intend to kidnap somebody and assault their husband. At least give an actual "Yes he did it but only because his brain is literal mush" and not try to play "He didn't actually do the things he did." --- Just because I have 99% of a heart doesn't mean it can't kill me.

DePape, a Canadian citizen in the United States illegally, immersed himself in online conspiracies, questioning the results of the 2020 presidential election and ranting ceaselessly and hatefully on an online blog about perceived enemies, including the media, aliens, Democrats, Jews, and Black people.

DePape, 43, is facing two federal felonies: attempted kidnapping of a U.S. official and assault on an immediate family member of the official in retaliation for performance of her job. If convicted, he faces life in prison, according to the Associated Press. The trial is expected to last roughly a week.

Seriously. This dude deserves a harsh punishment (And if there's you know what on his hard drive, no punishment would be too cruel), but it is astounding the amount of kid gloves armed insurgents are getting.

How this guy wasn't charged with attempted murder 1 (for being there, coming after Nancy) and attempted murder 2 (for his assault... in front of the police, of her husband) is just beyond me.
It was so transparently an assassination attempt, and people just let him go with, "He said kneecaps after the fact," like that somehow tracks? --- What has books ever teached us? -- Captain Afrohead Subject-verb agreement. -- t3h 0n3 ... Copied to Clipboard!
