Texas Florist Who Admitted to Being in Pelosi’s Office Wants Case Moved from D.C. Because of ‘Cancel Culture’ - Law & Crime

Washington, D.C. because of “cancel culture.” The defense for Texas florist Jenny Louise Cudd, who was on video happily admitting to being in the office of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, asserted authorities were creating the “illusion” of a conspiracy between her and Eliel Rosa by linking their cases.“According to the Government’s Statement of Facts, the two were seen on security footage walking into the building, walking around, and walking out,” attorney Marina Medvin said in a filing Wednesday. “There is no evidence of communications or a plan between the two to enter the Capitol. Instead, the evidence is purported to be that they were at the same place, at the same time, followed a crowd into the open doors of the Capitol building, then walked out. They didn’t take anything, they didn’t break anything.”Cudd was among rioters raiding the U.S. Capitol Building on Jan. 6, after then-President Donald Trump continued to lie that he actually won the 2020 presidential election. The invaders postponed but did not prevent Congress for counting electoral college votes weighing in favor of the real winner, Preside... https://lawandcrime.com/u-s-capitol-siege/texas-florist-who-admitted-to-being-in-pelosis-office-wants-case-moved-from-d-c-because-of-cancel-culture/

Opinion: Florist charged for participating in Capitol riot should be denied trip to Mexico - Houston Chronicle

Violently breaching the Capitol is just a misdemeanor; similar to a minor traffic violation? Since when? Contrast that with Crystal Mason, an African American woman, who a Texas state court sentenced to five years in prison for illegally casting a provisional ballot because she had not yet completed her term of supervised release from prison. The African American woman gets five years for not understanding voting rules regarding probationers, and a white woman has only traffic citation-like charges for rampaging through the Capitol. If that’s called justice; justice is upside down. Patrick J. Killman, Houston Minimum wage Regarding “Dems attempt to usher through school funding, wage increase,” (A6, Feb. 10): One size doesn’t fit all in many situations. A $15 minimum wage may fit New York City but not rural Louisiana. For entry-level jobs for high school and college students a $15 minimum wage may decrease opportunities. Also, some businesses may be more suited to higher minimum wages than others. Hopefully our political leaders can work better together on this important issue. The devil is truly in the details!
