Marc Bru repeatedly interrupted chief judge before the sentence was handed down, calling him a ‘clown’ and a ‘fraud’

A man who stormed the US Capitol with fellow Proud Boys far-right extremist group members was sentenced on Wednesday to six years in prison after he berated and insulted the judge who punished him.

Marc Bru repeatedly interrupted chief judge James Boasberg before the sentence was handed down, calling him a “clown” and a “fraud” presiding over a “kangaroo court”.

The judge warned Bru that he could be kicked out of the courtroom if he continued to disrupt the proceedings.

“You can give me 100 years and I’d do it all over again,” said Bru, who was handcuffed and shackled.

“That’s the definition of no remorse in my book,” the judge said.

    This is all conjecture:

    It serves Trump for his j6 insurrectionists and their families to believe he’ll pardon them all. His supporters (j6 and other extremists) serve Trump by continually reassuring each other that the pardons will definitely happen day 1.

    Trump supporters are surely telling each other that they have it from ‘reliable sources’ (their imaginations) that Trump will pardon everyone that’s faithful. The day of forgiveness is near and all they have to do is have faith and do good works (spread the faith, give money) and their redemption shall come.
