    How much are her family going to pay to the families of the other deceased from that day ? Maybe all that were incarcerated should be fined millions of dollars to help pay for compensation. Fuckwits the lot of them.

    There’s a paywall on the article, but how the fuck is the woman who attempted to breach a door against armed security and got shot for it entitled to compensation???

      Because she was one of “Dear Leader’s” followers. Same reason why the orange fucktard pardoned everybody else who broke into the capitol.

        So it’s not that her family won a court case or anything? The government just decided to give them compensation?

    Why do the systems we depend on to run a fair society always give so much of our taxes to the worst people?

      The YouTube creator CGPGrey has a video that’s an easy to digest summary of power structures and the incentives throughout. It’s the answer to your question.

    Not because Trump gives a fuck about any random dipshit who gave their life for him, but because he knows it paints a target on the backs of the Babbitt family. He wants somebody to try taking their hard-earned tax dollars back from them, because he wants more violence. He’s pushing for civil escalations so he can justify martial law.

    The Justice Department found that there was insufficient evidence to prove Babbitt’s civil rights had been violated, and that it was reasonable for the officer to have believed he was firing in self-defense or in defense of fleeing lawmakers, who were forced to evacuate from a session to certify Trump’s 2020 election loss to Joe Biden.
