Replying to @MacFarlaneNews
Pennsylvania Parole Board had lodged a detainer against Samsel. Per court "the defendant would remain incarcerated pursuant to the Pennsylvania detainer until at least April 24, 2022." (which allows time to dispose of Jan 6 case)

But look at what judge said (more thread) ==>

@MacFarlaneNews
Judge:

"Defendant’s lengthy history of assaultive conduct, and the risk that the Defendant will use violence against the democratic process in general or certain individuals in particular, all weigh in favor of his detention"

Threat to *democratic process* (Powerful words)

Powerful pair of images of January 6th in the latest set of charging documents!

And here's your proof. These mongrels couldn't pour piss out of a boot with the instructions printed on the heel. But somehow they voted. Unfortunately.

Now...accede to his speedy indictment motion, process him out, then rearrest him as he walks out of the building. Oh, man would I like to see that. I'd pay money to see the look on his idiot face when the truth of what's just happened dawned on him.
