No surprise this is the same Alabama that continues to defy a Supreme Court order to establish an additional majority black district.More from "post racial" Alabama:
Black man who says he was elected mayor of Alabama town alleges that White leaders are keeping him from position
Patrick Braxton said that the "minority White residents ... long accustomed to exercising total control over the government, refused to accept his election as mayor.www.cbsnews.com

No, he was sentenced to 41 months and released 14 months early.
You are posting propaganda
In fact, if Chansley, who pleaded guilty in September 2021 to obstructing Congress’ proceedings, were sentenced today, Lamberth wrote in a 35-page opinion on Thursday, he might be inclined to sentence him to a lengthier prison term than the 41 months he received.
“Without Mr. Chansley’s apparently unequivocal acceptance of responsibility, the Court is confident that he would have received a higher sentence,” Lamberth wrote.
Carlson didn’t air footage of Chansley getting into the Capitol or of the moments that featured prominently in his indictment and guilty plea.
Lamberth used his opinion to confront Carlson directly, calling his depiction of the Jan. 6 footage “ill-advised. Not only was the broadcast replete with misstatements and misrepresentations regarding the events of January 6, 2021 too numerous to count, the host explicitly questioned the integrity of this Court — not to mention the legitimacy of the entire U.S. criminal justice system — with inflammatory characterizations of cherry-picked videos stripped of their proper context,” he wrote. “In so doing, he called on his followers to ‘reject the evidence of [their] eyes and ears,’ language resembling the destructive, misguided rhetoric that fueled the events of January 6 in the first place.”
“The Court finds it alarming that the host’s viewers throughout the nation so readily heeded his command,” Lamberth added. “But this Court cannot and will not reject the evidence before it. Nor should the public.”
Lamberth said the newly aired footage added no significant new details to Chansley’s case, virtually all of which were known to Chansley and his attorney prior to his sentencing. In fact, the one clip that prosecutors turned over after Chansley’s sentencing — a 10-second video of Chansley walking near the Senate chamber — had no “exculpatory” value, Lamberth wrote.
“Mr. Chansley possessed the facts in the videos well in advance of his plea agreement, yet still determined, quite sensibly, to accept responsibility for his role in the criminal events of January 6, 2021,” Lamberth wrote.

Probably why she was seeking a pardon.
Also proves, contrary to what republicans claim, there was nothing spontaneous about Jan 6. It was premeditated and well planned to take advantage of stupid people.

It's the size and opulence of the houses that are being built. In our once sleepy little corner of the world, just look around at the speed in which monster houses are proliferating. Then just picture this all over Florida. I can't picture any insurance companies being able to cover the amount of liability that is being generated daily.

Unfortunately according to the politicians it is the unscrupulous contractors and lawyers taking advantage of the situations.
