Jan 6 Prosecution for Government Officials conspiracy to overthrow the Federal Government = No
Classified Documents with Nuclear Secrets stored in the Bathroom of a Country Club = No

It doesn't even ban going to https://www.tiktok.com in your browser!
(You don't have to watch the video obvs, but it's all here)
The Supreme Court is taking the case up now, though, before it goes through many appeals leads me to belive it'll be overturned.

They don’t represent us.
The implications of that is giving me nightmares.
