Of course CNN leaves a key point out of the article: Shroyer had previously gotten probabtion for a protest way before all the Jan 6th mess. Part of his punishment for that was he was not allowed at all on capitol grounds - so that played a role in the charges/sentencing as well.
So he won't learn anything from this.
This was a ploy for free press and cred for "being there" with fellow traitors
I don't think the "press" typically shows up to insurrections bearing megaphones.
If he learned anything from anything he wouldn't be a right wing extremist.
Of course, why else would he want to cosplay in court as Amish.
CNN was sabotaged with a change in leadership. I used to view them as a somewhat trustworthy left leaning source, now I view them as right wing propaganda
Woah idk if I'd go that far. Maybe more like if both sides were actually the same what right-leaning trusty sources would be like.
