"The defendant was among the first 30 rioters to penetrate the U.S. Capitol building," prosecutors wrote in their filing."The defendant then stalked the hallowed halls of the building, riling up other members of the mob with his screaming obscenities about our nation's lawmakers, and flouting the 'opportunity' to rid our government of those he has long considered to be traitors."on Sept. 3 to one felony count of unlawfully obstructing an official proceeding.

If U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth accepts the government's sentencing recommendation, Chansley -- who isn't accused of assaulting law enforcement or destroying property -- would serve longer than Scott Fairlam, a former mixed martial arts fighter who last week was sentenced toThe longest sentence handed out prior to Fairlam's was the an eight-month sentence handed down to Paul Hodgkins, who accompanied Chansley into the Senate chamber.

No sympathy from me

Imagine if this crazy energy was used for good causes?

Wrong protest Mr. Spear Horn. Political thirst needed a quencher. Huge irony, it seem like people are taking army style riffle to protests and rallies and saying it is to protect them. They dont wear horns but perhaps pose more danger to lives and properties than Mr. Spear Horn

Hope he suffers every day of his sentence

I love that picture! Now that's art!

Mercy, anyone🤔🤬

“Marched”

Bye!

MsMariaT Unarmed?

I hope he gets life in prison for all the people he killed that day. What was it -- ten, fifteen?

Umm….99.yrs is a good number!

I hope forever

Build him a monument

bout damn time! finally, now get the rest of them!

Attack There is footage of capital police walking him through the building and showy him around . I don’t think he broke anything that day.

He is a fucking Fed

Four years sounds pretty good to me!

I pray he's sentence to maxium sentence. No one should ever think they can do this and get a few years. Make him the example.

Sentence him to 3 years of attending every press conference by Psaki

Treason is punishable by death

Trump, re-election, the america of future generations, I feel sick

Be he wished he had Kyle Rittenhouse’s judge?

What attack? He should only get trespassing.

Now do Trump

My kids love this guy

Y'all think he's going to cry when he has to do real time?

Another Momma's boy like the Rittenhouse brat . Terrible parenting obviously often produces criminal kids.

Trump urges appeals court to limit Jan. 6 committee's access to his White House documentsA major question in the dispute is how much authority a former president has to assert executive privilege. That would be a possibly effective argument if the circumstances were 'normal'. The man attempted a coup. That makes ANY argument of 'privilege' moot. He hasn’t been in office in 10 months and the news still relies on him for clicks and comments, so pathetic, just wait, there will be more videos of mr sleepy passing out and lib(cantsaygotbanned) will talk about no success, lol No it’s not a “major question”. It’s really easy, and Trump is grasping for invisible straws.
