I know this will piss most of you all off, but I'm very glad they found him guilty. I can imagine how republicans would have screamed loud and hard if a democrat just ignored a subpoena. Of course, the son of a bitch won't get any prison time because he has woke ass friends (Trump) to keep him out of prison. I believe there is a lot of wokeism among the right wing, just as there is in the left wing. Bannon thinks he's above the rules, just like Trump. I can't stand the hypocrisy.
A couple things:
1. You're WAY off the "reservation" with your usage of the word 'Woke' in this context!
2. Secondly, I have exactly ZERO issue with trying (in a court of law), convicting and jailing law breakers, especially those who go to great lengths to avoid the law. I don't give a shit what color armband they wear! Even better if they are connected with the political machine in DC. However, where I have a MAJOR issue is...the rules ain't the same for both sides. Killary and about 50 others should be cooling their heels in the same gulag Bannon should be in...and they never even got tried, let alone convicted! That is bullshit, with a capital "B"! Furthermore, the 'witch hunt' going on by the left for the Trump tribe is so far out of control it is incomprehensible to me. Until there is "balance" in this whole muck-raking thing, the left needs to put a sock in it! (i.e. they need to get their 'breech' sealed with a nuclear powered RAM-ROD, IMNSHO!)
3. Thirdly, the people of the left have exactly ZERO room to talk when their leadership not just openly permit, but actively and publicly encourage, lynch mobs and terrorists to terrorize justices of the highest court in the land when they don't get their way, justices over the same justice system they demand vengeance from! THAT, is hypocrisy of the highest order! Period.
Until items #2 and #3 happen, the left needs to STFU!
