Susan McDougal got 22 months for refusing to answer three questions for Ken Starr…
Her name sounds so familiar, can’t remember what this was about.
These white collar crimes are such wrist slap punishments, meanwhile Laquisha smoking a joint after a 70 hour work week from three jobs to pay for her kids inner-city shitty public school lunch goes to jail for 40 years.
Crystal Mason got five years for voting a provisional ballot.
Five fucking years. You could guess the state and you know her race.
This guy plans a coup to overthrow democracy and oopsie four months. Don’t get me wrong, I’ll take it, but fucking hell.
If there wasn’t a minimum mandatory sentence, then this is in the judge as well as the prosecutor, both of whom have discretion.
She should’ve known better than being black and poor.
Federal prosecutors referenced the case of right-wing podcaster and former White House official Steve Bannon in their sentencing memo. Bannon was sentenced to four months in prison on a similar contempt conviction in October 2022 but is seeking to overturn his conviction and has not yet served any time.
It’s infuriating that these pieces of shit can just be like, “Prison? Nah, I’m good. Just gonna chill for the next two years until hopefully Trump gets elected and gives me another pardon.”
Let him rot
Wish there was more bite to this. At least a year.
Four months? Pathetic. The only way justice will be served if these traitors get shanked in prison during their short visits…
The old Chauvin treatment.
May he rot, even if it’s just for a few months…
After the fourth months in what will probably be low security retreat, is he made to comply? Otherwise it seems like a slap on the wrist

Navarro appealed his conviction immediately after sentencing.
Anyone know if he will begin serving time immediately or if he’s free until his appeals run out? I know if you or I were sentenced, we’d go straight to jail, but that doesn’t seem to happen for the ruling class.
Story time:
Years ago, I interned with the local sheriff’s office. I spent most of my time there with the warrant team. They went out and arrested people with outstanding warrants. In doing so, I learned that after sentencing the convicted person voluntarily report to prison. They had to process a number of people who were sentenced to prison but never reported.
I, like you, expected people to be transferred from court to prison after sentencing. That was a shocking revelation for me.
Good to know. So my guess is this guy is never going to spend a single day in jail.
Good. Now do all the current congressmen who also refused to appear for their subpoenas. Start with Gym Jordan, please?
Awww… I hope he doesn’t accidentally fall on a sharpened toothbrush.
I hope when he becomes a “documentary” film maker a la Dinesh D’Souza. Comedy gold.
