    During jury duty, we got all sorts of shit for even whispering which court room we are going to. We were all numbers and even addressed ourselves as a number. And we were threatened repeatedly with fines and prison sentences.

    This motherfucker gets to say whatever the fuck he wants and gets a bunch of verbal warnings and finger wagging.

    This is why we lose trust in various govt systems

      And no judge has the balls to hold him in contempt like he’s not a man facing felony charges.

        I think him putting in the “I’m immune to criminal charges” argument into the courts hands has actually given him temporary immunity until it’s decided. It’s BS
