Oath Keeper Stewart Rhodes Gets 18 Years

[Rebound]

Seditious Conspirator Stewart Rhodes has been handed an 18 year prison sentence for his role in the January 6 Capitol attack. 
 

The judge told him: “You, sir, present an ongoing threat and a peril to this country, to the Republic and the very fabric of our democracy.”

Prosecutors had asked for a 25 year sentence, stating that Rhodes had been calling for attacks against the government for over ten years.  
 

Despite his conviction, Rhodes gave an interview just four days ago, stating that the government was “coming after those on the political right.”

“It’s not going to stop until it’s stopped,” Mr. Rhodes said during the interview, adding that the country needed “regime change.” (Not the brightest thing for him to say four days before his sentencing hearing).

18 years, while it seems like a lot, is not that much for trying to violently overthrow a government.

Gosh if only he had googled an internet dictionary to look up the word “sedition”, he’d be a free man. According to one uneducated user on this site that’s all he would have needed to win his case.
