Julie Kelly Commentary: It’s Inevitable, Trump Will Be Indicted

A few days after federal agents stormed Donald Trump’s castle in Palm Beach last week, Judge Beryl Howell berated a man from Georgia for his involvement in the Capitol protest on January 6, 2021.

“Listening without question to political rhetoric that leads to serious offenses, criminal conduct, is not an excuse when you’re standing in a court of law,” Howell told Glen Simon, a Trump supporter who pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct on restricted grounds. “You’ve got to use your common sense and your own sense of who you are and how you’d like to conduct yourself as an American citizen before just blindly doing what a political figure says.”

Howell then sentenced Simon to eight months in prison.

The “political figure” to whom the judge was referring is President Trump. And Howell is not just any judge; she is the chief judge of the D.C. District Court that is overseeing at least 850 criminal cases related to the Capitol protest.

    I refer, of course, to Ivy League Law School graduates. (Columbia Univ in this case.)

  3. The irony of the judges admonishment is noted... justice will only be served at 2400 fps.

    1. Just a reminder: Federal judges have to be impeached and convicted to be removed from the bench.

      When was the last time a federal judge was impeached, never mind convicted?

      I'm not saying that it shouldn't happen. I won't be holding my breath waiting, however.

      Remember, It's a big club and we ain't in it and neither is Trump.

  5. When you have the cartels,fbi,and all the judges in your back pocket, you can do anything you want.
    How long will America put up with this bull shit.
    Now toss in the IRS, and you put most Americans at serious risk of losing all their rights.

    1. People with nothing to lose are the hardest to control. They're gonna take everything from some poor farmer type, and when he has nothing left but anger and a target... well, things get shooty.
