isn't the jury sequestered?
No, they weren't sequestered. Just instructed not to watch tv or read newspapers.


New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

Caveat...

They ARE sequestered during the deliberation phase, but were not during the trial, when Water's comments were made.

They were not sequestered when she made the statement, which is why the Judge acknowledged to the defense attorneys that they might have a reasonable appeal just on that basis alone.

And - even when they are sequestered, how do we know that there is no outside influence at all? I don't think they are totally isolated, but just "shouldn't talk about the case" when they are communicating outside the jury room.

Every time I hear the leftists use the word "insurrection", I laugh. It's a punchline. There was no insurrection, although I would agree you might make a case for a VERY SMALL number of folks to be charged with attempting such.
So "Hang Mike Pence" was just a joke?

Here's your boys, finally flipping to bring clarity. Oh, and The House committee said investigators wanted to ask Jim Jordan, a Republican congressman from Ohio, about his conversations with former President Donald J. Trump about the insurection.
A Proud Boys member who was among the first to cross the police line at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 pleaded guilty on Wednesday and agreed to cooperate with the government — potentially against other members of the far-right extremist group, the authorities said.

The defendant, Matthew Greene, 34, of Syracuse, N.Y., was most likely the first member of the Proud Boys, a group that describes itself as “Western chauvinists,” to plead guilty to charges stemming from the riot, his lawyer, Michael Kasmarek, said on Wednesday.

Mr. Greene was “among the first wave” to rush up the Capitol steps after the police line was breached, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia said in a statement on Wednesday. After he came down the stairs, he moved police barricades, prosecutors said. His lawyer maintains that he never entered the Capitol building.

Mr. Greene and other Proud Boys members had agreed before the siege to communicate through programmable radios, prosecutors said. They were “intentionally dressed in clothing that concealed their membership as Proud Boys,” the statement said.

Funny though... Lots of evidence on him and his crew were posted on DAY 1, and he even identified himself publicly, yet not even any charges
