Talk about selective prosecution. The DOJ should be ashamed but they prefer acting like Roland Freisler.
...
In the “statement of facts” for the case against Lloyd, it states that she and a friend “violated 40 U.S.C. § 5104(e)(2)(D) and (G), which make it a crime to willfully and knowingly (D) utter loud, threatening, or abusive language, or engage in disorderly or disruptive conduct, at any place in the Grounds or in any of the Capitol Buildings with the intent to impede, disrupt, or disturb the orderly conduct of a session of Congress or either House of Congress, or the orderly conduct in that building of a hearing before, or any deliberations of, a committee of Congress or either House of Congress; and (G) parade, demonstrate, or picket in any of the Capitol Buildings.”
As we’ve reported before, somehow the screaming and threats by people who tried to break down the doors of the Senate Judiciary Committee chambers during the Brett Kavanaugh Supreme Court confirmation hearings, the countless times Medea Benjamin and her Code Pinko anti-U.S. activists interrupted congressional hearings, and Senator Chuck Schumer standing on the Supreme Court stairs threatening jurists before an amped-up mob — among many other examples — don’t count as uttering “loud, threatening, or abusive” actions worthy of prosecution.
Lloyd is now on probation for three years, during which time she may not own guns. It bears noting that the woman, who also lost her job over this prosecution, was turned in to the FBI “by a confidential witness” after she applied for a gun permit. The “witness” knew that Lloyd had been in Washington, D.C., on January 6.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Joshua Rothstein said in court Wednesday that “we don’t prosecute people based on their beliefs.”
Try not to laugh.
