Another one bites it. This one bragged about attacking police on "TheDonald.win", while also claiming it was ANTIFA. Prosecutors used his online messages against him in court. Real genius here.
A man who joined a nightly performance of the national anthem inside the D.C. jail that has been promoted by former president Donald Trump and his allies was sentenced to seven years in prison for assaulting police and obstructing Congress on Jan. 6.
Shane Jenkins, 46, acknowledged in D.C. federal court that he had an “extensive” criminal history and apologized “for all the pain and suffering I’ve caused.” But, he added: “I love this country. I’m not some crazed maniac.”
Using a tomahawk he brought with him from Texas, Jenkins was the first to smash a window on the West Terrace of the U.S. Capitol, and was caught on video shouting: “We paid for it, it’s our f---ing building.” That breach gave rioters access to senators’ offices, which were trashed and ransacked. -snip

Now he thinks he might like to work in the building he attacked.

Earlier today, in federal court in Brooklyn, Jia Liu was sentenced by United States District Judge Diane Gujarati to 21 months in prison for conspiring to steal, forge, and distribute fraudulent COVID-19 Vaccination Cards.
On June 9th 2023, co-defendant Steven Rodriguez, a Long Island nurse, was sentenced to 30 months' imprisonment for his role in the same scheme. Liu and Rodriguez pleaded guilty in April 2023 to conspiracies to defraud and obstruct the United States' response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
"At the height of the COVID pandemic, Liu and Rodriguez brazenly fabricated vaccine cards and sold them for profit, thereby putting the safety of others at risk during this deadly health crisis" stated United States Attorney Brion Peace.
"This prosecution demonstrates our Office's ongoing commitment to holding accountable those who engaged in COVID-19 fraud. These prison sentences should deter other lawbreakers who put their own interests above public health."
According to court filings and facts presented at sentencing, in May 2021, Liu and Rodriguez conspired to steal, forge, sell, and distribute COVID-19 Vaccination Cards to hundreds of unvaccinated persons. In addition to the cards, Liu and Rodriguez also offered buyers and co-conspirators false entry into government immunization databases.
Liu and Rodriguez went to great lengths to evade law enforcement and conceal the scheme. Members of the scheme used code words such as "gift cards," "Pokemon cards," or "Cardi Bs" to refer to fraudulent COVID-19 Vaccine Cards.
Liu also instructed his co-conspirators to communicate by encrypted applications and hide payment records. Liu and Rodriguez also disguised the source of mail items containing COVID-19 Vaccination Cards by omitting or using false sender names on envelopes.
As COVID-19 raged and hundreds of thousands of Americans perished, Liu exploited the pandemic to enrich himself, and push his anti-vaccine agenda, messaging a co-conspirator: "f**k the vaccine."
In addition, Liu specifically targeted the armed forces and their attempts to contain the COVID-19 pandemic. From approximately August 2021 or earlier, the defendant created and distributed false COVID-19 Vaccination Cards to members of the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve to help them evade its vaccination requirements.
Liu boasted to a co-conspirator on an encrypted messaging app: "you have no idea how many documents I have faked in my usmc (United States Marine Corps) career."
