Jan. 6 rioter accused of destroying evidence sentenced to more than 4 years in prison - eviltoast

A California man accused of organizing a group of Jan. 6 rioters, participating in the riots and attempting to destroy evidence of his involvement was sentenced to more than four years in prison on Tuesday, the Justice Department announced.

Edward Badalian was convicted of conspiracy and obstruction of an official proceeding in April. He was sentenced to four years and three months in prison and was ordered to pay $2,000 in restitution.

Prosecutors allege that Badalian used a Telegram group chat named “PATRIOTS45MAGA Gang” to encourage violence against political enemies, and at one point said he wanted to arrest President Biden.

    What precise actions do you think would be taken if a sitting president successfully murders the president elect and the opposition party, and for that matter any judges who disagree with him.

    I’d be interested in hearing how you think that plays out in reality opposed to this “just world” you seem to imagine yourself living in.
