She only got 3 years. Even if she serves all of it, it's basically a slap on the wrist.

Spending a full 3 years behind bars is not a slap on the wrist. That’s still a long ass time to not have your freedoms, plus it obviously follows you after you get out. If you think she should have gotten a longer sentence that’s one thing, but it’s certainly not a slap on the wrist.

Relative to how other crimes are prosecuted it is a slap on the wrist. There are people spending 25+ years in prison for possessing weed: a product that is natural, not harmful, and legal in many states.

That’s a bad comparison. 25 years for possession of weed is INSANE, and genuinely not really happening much anymore. I could go the other way and point to literal murderers and rapists receiving exactly zero time in jail. 3 years is really not a slap on the wrist.

She tried to sell the Speaker's laptop to Russian spies.

It's absolutely a slap on the wrist.

That wasn’t one of the charges she was convicted of.

That doesn't mean it didn't happen. Stop simping for traitors.

Well then blame the plaintiff’s. Why didn’t they seek charges for that? Stop grandstanding about shit you clearly don’t understand

Nobody is doing 25 years for weed unless they were sentenced under the Biden crime bill of 1994
