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.
Bru has been representing himself with an attorney on standby. He has spewed anti-government rhetoric that appears to be inspired by the sovereign citizen movement. At the start of the hearing, Bru demanded that the judge and a prosecutor turn over five years of their financial records.
Just to make it perfectly clear that this guy is an imbecile.
I mean if the last decade hasn’t proven it yet, I just want to reiterate. You don’t need to be smart to destroy America.
Maybe you need to be dumb and ignorant to destroy America.
It certainly helps…
Yep.
Just make promises and you can get 49% of the voting population to pull that lever no matter how you vote.
And yet he still only got six years.
One less trump voter
One less American that can’t own a gun
Legally, think that will stop him?
He’s just hoping Drumpf will get elected and pardon them all. He probably would too. If Drumpf gets back into the Oval Office, kiss this country goodbye.
Who?
And prosecutors were seeking 7 years 3 months.
Are judges ever not lenient in these cases?
Judges have been lenient in 82% of the sentencing of these terrorists.
Im sure that won’t come back to bite the government in the ass.
They save the real big sentences for marijuana and protesting oil pipelines.
These are the types of cases where it pays to be lenient.
Without going deeply into the history & tactics of dealing with insurgencies: If the goal is social stability and reconciliation - it is best to be lenient the first time, but then be absolutely over-the-top brutal the second.
So, this guys’ whole thing is basically, “GRRR, I’M ANGRY. FUCKOFF AND GIVE ME 6 YEARS”.
Man, you sure showed that judge and everyone else by being locked up for 6 years now.
2,190 days where I’ll be out in the sunshine, eating delicious food, playing with my kids, and he’ll be stuck inside most of the time eating prison food lol.

But he’s proving he’s a ‘true patriot’! Plus he’ll get to make friends with more white supremacist shitheads, and nurture his seething anger against a society that scares him profoundly.
…Yeah, like you, I’d take the freedom too. But one thing the last several years has taught me: some people’s preferred reality is an absolute fucking nightmare, and they like it that way. They love twerking for an elderly, bloviated, thin-skinned narcissistic TV celebrity with horrible personal hygiene and makeup preferences. And nothing will change their minds.
Joining the Prison Boys was a pretty dumb career move for this jackass.
No prizes for guessing which gang he’ll be joining in prison.
Sounds like the sentence should be 101 years so they don’t do it again.
Yeah he knew he was fucked, he was just trying to make sure he was memorable enough that Dump would be sure to pardon him if he won a second term, which this guy is really really counting on.
Reminds me of State of Georgia vs Fenton Allen, court transcript by Rick and Morty. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5bjDkQR57fA
LOL this is precisely why the Trump judges are not being aggressive. No way this case didn’t get tossed or retried on appeal because of the judge’s behavior.
As opposed to the results of the Trump trials (that’s many plurals), this case actually resulted in a life time sentence.
And Trump’s cases will result in the loss of somewhere around $350,000,000, the loss of a right to conduct business, and then jail time. That lost of status is a greater punishment to someone like Trump than a life sentence.
Keep that fucking psychopath out of your government, and I’ll suck your dick.
Holy shit this is amazing!!! 🤣
“You reckon? Reckon you could suck my dick?”
Absolute comedy gold. If you’re going down, go all out.
When keeping it real goes wrong - MAGA edition
Aka the “Sedition Edition”.
(Don’t mind me, I just like playing with words.)
I guess homeboy is really banking on Trump winning the election and pardoning him and his fellow lackeys.
I think that’s basically everyone’s strategy at this point. Putin, Trump, Guiliani, everyone else in the GOP. All their hopes are riding on Trump winning the election or else everything goes to shit.
Just wanted to find out what the count of these guys being secret leftist Antifa members is… oh yeah, zero…
Yet Another Imbecile for Trump… I didn’t realize just how quickly defunding schools in red states would affect the electorate…
Unless the judge gave him maximum sentence, this is not justice
