A former appointee of Donald Trump was sentenced Friday to 70 months in prison for his violent role on January 6, 2021.
Federico Klein, a former State Department appointee, was found guilty following a bench trial before Judge Trevor McFadden this summer of multiple counts, including assaulting multiple police officers that day.
“Your actions on January 6 were shocking and egregious,” McFadden, also a Trump appointee, said during Friday’s sentencing.
According to the judge, Klein assaulted an officer during an initial breach on the Capitol grounds, telling the officer “you can’t stop us.”
And the red hat stood out as the trump cult attacked the United States Capitol. This is one of the people that trump will pardon if he once again sits in the WH. Those like this guy, who beat and assaulted police are people trump call a "hostage", and likened the traitors who tried to overturn the election with the hostages being held in Gaza. Really?

Former President Donald Trump on Thursday referred to people imprisoned for the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol as "hostages," during a campaign rally, his latest move to embrace his supporters involved in the riot.
