Woman could face jail time for laughing at Jeff Sessions confirmation hearing.

a reply to: AnonyMason

For the last time there is NO punishment yet. The 1 year in prison / fine is the max she can receive. How about we wait to see the sentence first?

For the last time...sentencing is decided by the judge...The bringing of charges and active prosecution, DOJ Attorney and all was decided by the Department of Justice that Jeff Sessions was ridiculously appointed to.

Code Pink, The Tea Party and every other right and left wing organization protested and disrupted public proceedings of the Obama Administration at every turn, yet he never had them arrested and charged.

This was offensive to the spirit of democracy. That is not a left or right conclusion.

Eff Jeff Sessions..

Excellent news, though i think a year is not enough. She disrupted the hearing and broke the law. A punishment is absolutely required and it is about time someone was made an example of.

This woman had been arrested 10 times for taking protests too far. She needs to be taught how to respect other people. I think 5 years would be reasonable. With the max being 1 year though, i hope she at least gets that maximum sentence.

Thats nice.. Now read what I posted and what I addressed.

It wasn't Pocahontas?....
I mean Elizabeth Warren?

Fem-terruption!

Imagine if some white republican did this to an ethnic female democrat?

Would be on the front page of every major news outlet.

It would be classed immediately as hate crime and be on 24hr cycle on CNN for at least a month.

Desiree Fairooz was charged on January 10th, 2017.

The Attorney General was Loretta Lynch...

By a new capitol cop..who had never made an arrest before, nor even policed a hearing.

It was Sessions DOJ that chose to pursue the charges rather than drop it.
It was Sessions DOJ sent a DOJ lawyer to argue the case and press.

Samuel Bogash, a lawyer representing Fairooz, showed a video of the audience laughing at another part of the hearing, when Sessions joked about disagreements with his wife. But Covert argued that it was appropriate for the audience to laugh when Sessions made a joke about his marriage but not when Shelby claimed Sessions had a long record of “treating all Americans equally.”

It's somebody's first day every day. There isn't even a rumbling that they were derelict in their duty.

Incorrect. That determination was made by Judge Robert E. Morin (appointed by B. Clinton), on Jan 25, 2017, while the sitting AG was Sally Yates (appointed by Obama).

It was Sessions DOJ sent a DOJ lawyer to argue the case and press.

Incorrect. The prosecuting lawyer would have been assigned for the preliminary hearing. See above.

Reductio ad absurdum.

If it makes you feel better.

It already failed in the Senate. They plan on starting from scratch. In the meanwhile Trump can brag he got something through the congress.

Of course not...He is all about Trumpia Law though.

Press can be prosecuted for unfavorable stories..
Protestors can be jailed for protesting..
Just this week via EO religious institutions can now be political groups and keep their tax free status..Just like ruling Imams in Iran.

Trumpia law...He's working on it..
