    I have a lot of sympathy for this lady. It’s easier than people think to get sucked into cults - even get smart people. And this lady is an example of that. Her involvement in the January 6th sedition riots is shameful. But we all make mistakes, and she was punished for it. Whether it was enough of a punishment is another matter. But the important thing is that she realizes and acknowledges her mistake. Good on her.

      If our justice system is supposed to rehabilitate people instead of punish, then it seems like she received the correct sentence.
