On October 31, DePape was charged with two federal crimes: assault of an immediate family member of a federal official with the intent to retaliate against the official on account of the performance of official duties; and attempted kidnapping of a federal official on account of the performance of official duties.

DePape was convicted of the federal charges on November 16, 2023.

Ya I thought they may have had some kidnapping thing in there.  Never really followed it and even forget what his name was.

LOL, all I had to do was google aggravated assault and while there are most that say up to 4 years the average said 20 and of course Texas, 2 to 99 years or life was even listed. I am not going to look up what they are even the charging the guy with but neither did Larry.

A while back it was the evil Biden DA asking for too much time and now it is they will just let him off.  Which is it?  You sound like a Trump attorney going in circles.  Let me help you with the case.  Your next move is to file an appeal.  I feel a guy coming into a home with a hammer to bludgeon you with should have their head blown off no matter who's home it is.  40 years is letting him live in my opinion. 

You fucking circle MAGA's.  Round and round you go.

I’m pretty sure one of them got their head blown off. The lack of reciprocation or compensation sparked the violence

The incoming president of Panama has vowed to make big changes to help alleviate the U.S. border crisis.

President-elect Jose Raul Mulino vowed to shut down a crucial migration gap through Panama that has been used by more than 500,000 migrants over the last year, signaling a shift in the country's policy as the U.S. continues to battle a crisis at its southern border, according to a report from Voice of America.

"Panama and our Darien [Gap] are not a transit route. It is our border," Mulino said, according to the report.

Panama had previously helped bus migrants through the critical gap and allowed them to continue their journey north, a policy that has allowed thousands to reach the U.S. border with Mexico.

Georgia’s parliament is set to pass a highly controversial so-called “foreign agents” bill that has triggered widespread protests across the former Soviet republic nestled in the Caucasus Mountains.

The vote comes after tens of thousands of people came out to protest the legislation in the capital, Tbilisi.

The bill would require organizations receiving more than 20% of their funding from abroad to register as “agents of foreign influence” or face crippling fines.

The proposed law is modeled after a similar one in Russia that the Kremlin has used to increasingly snuff out opposition and civil society. Many Georgians fear their foreign agents bill will be used to the same way it has been in its northern neighbor: to quash dissent and free expression by going after nongovernmental organizations with financial ties overseas.

Georgian Dream contends the legislation will promote transparency and national sovereignty and has hit back at Western criticism over the proposal.

 

I am picking up my son from LAX, he is returning from Georgia after updating software for their voting machines. When he goes to these countries he spends most of his time in warehouses for 10-12 hours at a time and rarely sees anything but his hotel or the nearest restaurant if it is open after his shift. But he does talk to some of the locals so I am interested to see what they think of the bill.

An Arizona woman accused of attempting to kill her husband by poisoning his coffee has been sentenced to three years probation.

Melody Felicano Johnson was initially charged with attempted first-degree murder and pleaded guilty to two counts of the lesser felony charge of adding poison or a harmful substance to food or drink in April.

Roby Johnson told detectives he used pool testing strips to determine his coffee pot “showed high levels of chlorine,” and set up hidden cameras that reportedly caught Melody Johnson pouring bleach into a container and pouring the contents of that container into the coffee maker, investigators said.

Johnson could have faced a maximum of 2 years in prison for each count.

Her attorney requested the sentence be time served, saying Johnson had already been in custody for nearly a year due to her inability to post a $250,000 bond. Her sentence also included mental health treatment.

Judge Javier Chon-Lopez noted even the victim, her estranged husband Roby Johnson, had told the court he did not want Johnson to end up in prison.

Corporate greed not to blame for price pressures, Fed study shows

https://www.yahoo.com/news/corporate-greed-not-blame-price-170311634.html

U.S. President Joe Biden has blamed corporate greed for still-elevated prices, accusing companies of boosting profits by shrinking portion sizes but leaving the selling price unchanged, and by failing to pass on falling costs to consumers.

Fed policymakers, and many economists, say the inflation surge can be better explained by the combined effect of supply chain disruptions and a drop in labor supply during the post-pandemic recovery that occurred just as consumer demand rose.

 Consolidating power has been the goal of every government. Shortly after America was founded the politicians began to undermine the constitution. Georgia is pretty much like Ukraine. They’re geographically screwed and ran by the minority of corrupt politicians. 
Geography aside , America isn’t a lot different. Both nations are attempting to settle  for democratic socialism in an attempt to appease the Marxist. Ultimately the old red brownist strategy dooms freedom and society.
