The most bizarre thing about american politics to me is that the concept of an actual political party, as opposed to a group of people that very loosely share the same beliefs, is so foreign to them. "Once elected, they are only accountable to DSA," that's how a party works!
Confederate jurisprudence is seldom discussed by lost causers in favor of focusing on the Union for very good reason.
It was a looney bin of presumptive guilt military tribunals. In one case a man was charged & convicted of a crime that did not exist under the confederate code

The sentences handed down today are a huge threat to the possibility of a democratic society. The prosecution is rife with constitutional violations, but 30 years in prison (more than anyone for January 6) for moving some magazines? 50 years in prison even for those not involved in planning the protest? The evidence of an illegal conspiracy is non-existent, but this is how the authoritarian dragnet targets those fighting against repression. Everyone should be learning about this case. https://t.co/XLki7OBuID
