Full Headline: Jailed MAGA rioter seeks release because it’s ‘not healthy’ to be ‘stuck in a bubble’ with other insurrectionists

A violent Capitol rioter is seeking his pretrial release from the DC Jail, arguing that it's "not healthy" to be "stuck in a bubble" with other insurrectionists who share his views.

Robert Gieswein is member of the Three Percenters militia group who's accused of assaulting police officers at the Capitol after traveling to Washington from Colorado "prepared for battle," according to media reports.

In a handwritten letter to U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan filed in court on Thursday, Gieswein wrote that he read a recent Vice News article about the "Patriot Wing" of the DC Jail, where he is housed with other hardcore perpetrators of the Jan. 6 insurrection.

First of all maybe you should re-read the Constitution that you and your right fascist group think they know...there is an amendment and an Article about your actions ...

Second Throw away the key.....

… that this was not FAIR? That she was here for the (sob, sob, oh it hurts) “revolution”?

I was too stunned and terrified by the televised events of the day to laugh like hell, but Jesus Christ on a Trailer Hitch — what did they expect?

Here’s the math:

100% of the 3%ers belong in prison for a minimum of 10 years …

When they finally understand that freedom and free dumb are two different things, they will learn that you listen to differing viewpoints before you do illegal stupid things.

back in 1971-1972. Some of them got hauled off to jail because in some cases their actions DID go beyond peaceful assembly. Unlike the whiny January 6th Trumpie insurrectionists, they did not expect five-star hotel service at the lock-ups or mints on their pillows at night in their jail cells.
