There is a pattern forming here, folks. What we have seen this week is a man in Indiana, who was pardoned for his participation in the January 6 Capitol riot, get into an altercation with a cop during a traffic stop and get shot dead doing it. Now, just today, we find a Missouri woman who was so shitfaced drunk she was driving on the wrong side of the freeway and into oncoming traffic, get 17 years in prison for killing one person and seriously injuring another. Interesting the kind of people who showed up at the Capitol in 2021, is it not? And Trump pardoned them all because they’re all such wonderful patriots, doncha know? They just happen to be wreaking havoc and getting themselves or other people killed with their shenanigans.
Emily Hernandez of Missouri gained fame for holding up a broken sign bearing then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s name that was taken during the Jan. 6 insurrection. She turned herself in to federal authorities in 2022 after being identified as one of the rioters and was sentenced to 30 days in jail. Hernandez was among 1,500 pardoned by Trump last week.
But six days before Hernandez was scheduled to plead guilty to a misdemeanor charge of entering and remaining in a restricted building in that case, she was involved in a fatal crash.
Hernandez was driving the wrong way in the eastbound lanes of Interstate 44 in January of 2022 when she crashed into an SUV. Victoria Wilson, 32, was killed in the wreck. Ryan Wilson, 36, was seriously hurt and still walks with a cane, the St. Louis Dispatch reported.
A Franklin County judge sentenced Hernandez to 10 years for Victoria Wilson’s death and seven years for Ryan Wilson’s injury.
Hernandez had a blood-alcohol content of .20% after the crash, authorities said — more than double the state’s legal limit.
“Probation is not appropriate given the nature of what happened,” Judge Ryan Helfrich said.
“What I did was ungodly and I will live with that shame for the rest of my life,” Hernandez said at her sentencing, according to the newspaper. “I am sorry for what I did and if I could take it all back, I would.”
Now look at the personality here. She goes up to January 6, commits a crime, returns to Missouri, commits a crime and who knows how many more crimes she’s committed that we don’t even know about?
Only the best people, right? I don’t want to even ask what the worst people do with their time if this is what the best people do.

Friends, I am forced to self-promote and ask you for money. We had a bad year compared with 2023 and the end of the year has been catastrophic. Traffic died on November 5. We are a small blog and completely self-supporting by ad revenue, donations, and subscriptions. If you can afford a monthly subscription that would help us out. If you can make a small donation, likewise. Our only goal is to stay in business and give you the best content we can generate. You are the wind beneath our wings. Thank you. Ursula
Little news flash: not all demons are in Hell.
Just as I thought. All of these “innocent protesters” on J6 were never angles.
Idiot Trump just scattered the cockroaches back into the world and most will eff-up again and end up back where they belong.
Hopefully, they will get pinched for state crimes where they will be out of reach of Mango Messiha’s pardon pen.
Oh good point… is this a State Crime?
Thus proving they are really criminals, after all. They just keep committing crimes. Duh
These are “Trump’s Best people.”
You may want to check the court records on this. I believe that the 10 year sentence and the 7 year sentence are to run concurrently, which means a total of ten years only, with the possibility of time off got good behavior (not that I would expect good behavior from this – person.)
Some things many 1/6ers have in common: no conscience and an arrogant belief that laws don’t apply to them.
