    Trying to remember, but weren’t they trying to sell it to Russia? Was that info verified? So glad that espionage on top officials is apparently punishable by slap on the wrist.

        Imagine loving your country so much, that you travel to the US capital to protest what you believe, despite zero credible evidence, that the election was stolen.

        Then you join a violent mob to attack your political rivals, steal the laptop of the speaker of the house, 2nd in line for the presidency.

        And because you’re such a patriot, you try to sell the laptop, with whatever classified secrets it holds as the 2nd in line for the presidency, to one of our nation’s biggest rivals.

      They really should have put them in jail for some time. Now they’re going to be safely at home when this next pandemic from China hits.
