MARTHA STEWART WENT TO PRISON FOR DOING A LOT LESS

-
Martha Stewart was sentenced to five months in prison, followed by five months of house arrest and two years of probation, for lying about a stock sale, conspiracy, and obstruction of justice
-
Background:
The charges stemmed from a 2001 stock sale of ImClone stock, where Stewart was accused of lying to federal investigators about the timing of the sale

I feel like all the #maga people who run around leaving awful comments on everything they don't agree with, as well as anyone who grew up to act like a cyber bully/troll in general, are just the high school bullies we all knew.

They grew up and figured out they were a loser, and too cowardly for actual crime.

They go around acting tough, and insulting people online, as no reasonable adult can stand them, and stay FAR away.

What a sad existence, and well earned.

"There is one major sign that lawmakers expect to increase the #deficit more with this version: It would raise the #debtceiling by a larger amount than the February version. The debt ceiling limits how much money the federal government is allowed to borrow.

#Congress wants to pass a major package of policy changes using a special reconciliation process that could pass without any Democratic votes in the #Senate."

Oh, I was not at all suggesting that. I was joining you in the fun, and clearly labeled the post as sarcasm. It was directed at the #MAGA uneducated just as yours was, and I never thought you'd take offense on that. Sorry.

I will try to minimize interaction with you, as it is now abundantly clear that you have problems with my post regardless of context or content.
