Judge Rudy Contreras said it wasn't tough to imagine former President Donald Trump issuing what a Jan. 6 defendant referred to as another “call to battle."
Federal sentencing guidelines are more an algebra equation the Judge plugs various values into rather than a decision they make. The bulk of those are based solely on set things like the limits for the specific charges and previous criminal history.
The “book” needs to come from prosecutors being able to actually prove all their charges. Prosecutors don’t want to bring charges unless they know they can win, especially if evidence is shaky or not 100%, double jeopardy means a fast prosecution with limited or largely circumstantial evidence could let a criminal walk and never be tried again.
THEN START THROWING THE BOOK AT THEM TO SCARE THEM INTO NOT DOING IT AGAIN YOU FUCKING MORON
That’s not really how it works unfortunately.

How about using their shitty opsec to find where they plan to attack and actually defend the property instead of letting the traitors walk right in.
