Judge rejects motion by defendant Zach Rehl for mistrial on seditious conspiracy count

I've been seeing a lot of threads and breaking articles about Tarrio and the rest of his toxic cult being found guilty. I'm glad for the convictions. They are bad people who did bad things and we as a society should reject that and prevent them from further harming us.

Take a victory lap, enjoy the win. These guys tried to destroy our country and force us over the brink.

This was a victory for Democracy. This was a 'win' against the impending doom of the bad faith at our doors.

We accounted for the facts of the case, and then we rightly made corrective steps. It wasn't kneejerk, it took time. Our patience paid off.

One year ago today the @NASAMars InSight mission recorded the largest quake ever detected on another planet! https://go.nasa.gov/3noY3Sn

See how InSight's seismological data have given scientists an unprecedented view of Mars' core: https://go.nasa.gov/44l3mmq

You understand, right?

Bluesky is funded and developed and operated by THE EXACT SAME PEOPLE who *sold* your most recent community.

It is the product of exploitative capitalist long-termers who will sell your *next* community as rapidly and disdainfully as they did your last one, because THEIR INTEREST IN COMMUNITY IS IN EXTRACTING ITS VALUE.

Fedi's hard, sure. And it's not any safer, agreed.

But at least it's not made to benefit the very people who screwed us LESS THAN SIX MONTHS AGO.

No doubt.

This is just unbelievable. Truly. If he is not forced to resign then we do not have a working system of government https://www.propublica.org/article/clarence-thomas-harlan-crow-private-school-tuition-scotus

In the UK they are stopping people who are wearing a mask from voting. It’s unacceptable to exclude high risk people from democracy.

over on birdsite I posted a very old photo of myself from my prom (part of a prompt). I looked lovely, even if I wasn’t smiling.

tweeted 16 minutes ago, not a single fave, only 6 views (that’s just a scroll component - but it should be more), I have many followers

I think it’s pretty obvious that those of us who didn’t by blue checks (and blocked a bunch) are getting shadowbanned

A guy just walked by my house dressed as a Jedi. He had a lightsaber fight with a worker loading his truck (the worker used a broom handle). #MayTheFourth

I’m glad my parents did not have to live through the collapse we are experiencing . . . I’m sorry that my children and my grandchildren will have to try somehow to survive it.

I’m late to the party— I’m sure you have been celebrating for hours, but I’m just now catching up 🥳

‼️🇺🇦The train that was fired upon in Kherson yesterday arrived in Lviv without delay: the indomitable Ukrainians were greeted with applause. Yesterday, Russian terrorists opened fire on a passenger train in Kherson, wounding the conductor. The train crew, despite the chaos and air raid alert, moved two disabled passengers from an evacuation car to a shelter (VIDEO and more) #Ukraine #NATO #Press #News #Invasion #Russia #9yearsOfWarInUkraine #WantedDeadOrAlive

This is cruel, unusual punishment and not pro-life.

Until we can turn this tide around completely, and we are and will, here are 6 organizations in Florida you can support that help people who need it.

Abortion law: Florida woman carried baby to term knowing he would die-

4 Proud Boys found guilty of SEDITIOUS CONSPIRACY. That's not just good news, that's brilliant news!

That now connects seditious conspiracy from the bottom rung to the next rung up - the Proud Boys. It means everyone who the Proud Boys touched also will get nailed for seditious conspiracy. Because conspiracy.

Our news media - per usual - got it 100% wrong while speculating about what the jury would understand. The news media insisted the jury would convict on the tickey-tack but hang up on the serious shit.

W R O N G !

The jury "hung up" on a small but important point having to do with ONE of the co-conspirators. Vince Pazzolla only recently joined up. Can the govt really get HIM for the planning & plotting?

That was it. That was the hold up on a total win for the govt.

Every jury - filled with We The People - has seen clearly what this story is. They've seen the criminal behavior and thrown the book at it.

The charge the "insiders" feared the govt couldn't get convictions for is the charge juries see clearest.

That's horrible news for those in the next tier up the food chain: the Roger Stone tier. The Steve Bannon tier. The money tier. Who paid the hotel bill at the Willard War Room?

That tier will connect directly to lots of members of Congress and to Trump himself.

And meanwhile, Jack Smith closes in from not just one side but multiple sides.

And, if Jack Smith - or Fani Willis - puts "seditious conspiracy" on the table? They can do it knowing that juries - filled with We The People - will see that seditious conspiracy and deliver the just verdict.

That means if you're on the next tier, you're doomed. The convicted Proud Boys all face 50 years behind bars. That's the max. Considering how We The People clearly feel about these people and their crimes? They'll get most of that 50.

And THAT means it's going to be flipping season starting right about now.

Shit just got very, very serious for anyone involved in any way in the Republican plot to overthrow our democracy. We The People spoke - partially - but with absolute clarity on what we think.

NEW: Trump released a video making it appear as though he received a warm greeting in Scotland with bagpipers welcoming him on the tarmac. Scotland officials had no idea where they came from.

Twitter sleuths discovered Trump rented the bagpipers himself. https://youtu.be/mWZm7fUbR3M
