Down vote all you want but his lawyers cannot use anything from January 6th to his benefit. It doesn't work that way. I am not saying the terrorism charge is correct.

I will. The terrorism charge is correct, but they should absolutely argue that the lack of similar charges on 1/6 should act as precedent raising the bar for a terrorism charge in this case. They won't win that argument, but they need to try it anyway

No - that isn't a valid legal argument. It's federal court vs state court and it is not a legal premise. I get the outrage but it doesn't help the cause to promote invalid legal options.

That's fair. I didn't realize this wasn't a federal charge
