    Can you imagine the sheer level of disillusionment Epps feels? Dude’s been a fan of Fox, and particularly Tucker Carlson, for years. He hears Trump’s war squeal and, true believer that he is, jumps into action, joining hundreds to defend the country by any means necessary… and is immediately abandoned when he becomes a convenient scapegoat. I’m not sure I’d be able to function if a person I idolize dicked me that hard, that suddenly, and for so little reason.

        I’ve found several articles about Taranto*, but none of them mention a beating of any sort. Any chance you could offer some more details to narrow my search? Not that it matters with DuckDuckGo ignoring every boolean I throw at it.

            Guevara said in court that Taranto was attacked and injured on Tuesday by other inmates in the wing of the Washington jail where Jan. 6 defendants are detained while awaiting trial. She did not elaborate on the circumstances of the attack.

            Dude. WHY. And thanks for the source

              My best guesses: A) It didn’t happen/was a small scuffle B) Did happen and wasn’t committed by J6ers C) It was committed by J6ers because he was an ass to them.

                Yeah I agrwe. All such stupid reasons. Guess thr lesson here is there isn’t any unity with these people. So I guess think twice if you’re gonna commit treason for your beliefs cuz even the other treasonous convicts won’t have your back. Like damn.
