    “During the sentencing, US district judge Timothy Kelly, who was nominated to the bench by Trump, said the evidence suggested Tarrio was “the ultimate leader” of the seditious conspiracy, “the ultimate person, who organized, who was motivated by revolutionary zeal”.”

    I can think of someone else, Judge Kelly. The tangerine nightmare that appointed you.

      I don’t think it was either of them leading. It’s probably organized crime. Also probably why they try to amp up bitcoins… They got drug and trafficked Bitcoin they want to launder easier. Roger Stone, I think, is a closer connection to the real people puppeting these morons. Probably why Robert Kennedy jumped on board with the rightwing nonsense, because the mafia already killed JFK and he’s owned.

      But yeah fuck em all.

      That’s one evil heartless piece of shit right there. Gang gang.

        Kind of a contradiction, no? If the crime is organized that implies there’s someone doing the organizing, a leader if you will.
