Reffitt, like other Jan. 6 rioters, is facing the consequences of his own actions. He's lucky that the judge decided not to tack on domestic terrorism charges, even though his actions were deeply unpatriotic and threatened the foundations of American democracy.
It's absurd to persecute those who participated in the Jan. 6 protests with such ferocity and jail a man for 7 years who didn't even enter the Capitol. The Democrats are the real anti-Americans, demonizing citizens who were simply exercising their democratic rights as "domestic terrorists."
