Despite the prospect of appeal, it looks like Stewart Rhodes, the Yale educated insurrectionist will be spending his golden years in federal prison. Unless of course Cheeto Jesus manages to avoid the same fate and wins the election in 2024.
Rhodes, a former staffer of Ron Paul was tried and convicted of seditious conspiracy in connection with the January 6 riot at the Capitol in 2021. The charge is rarely made and the evidence must be overwhelming to convince a jury the person in the dock actually wanted to overthrow a legitimately elected government. Assuming the DOJ makes good on Merrick Garland's pledge to hold everyone involved in the insurrection accountable this conviction bodes ill for the twice impeached failed former president.
