Justice Department Prosecuting Woman for Laughing at Jeff Sessions

Maybe the subject of her laughter is the reason why this prosecution is even being perused to this extent.

She was present at the Senate confirmation hearings of Trump’s Attorney General Jeff Sessions, and could not hold in her laughter in when Sen. Richard Shelby (R-AL), referred to Sessions as having a history of “treating all Americans equally under the law is clear and well-documented.”

The facts beg to differ from Shelby’s claim.

Desiree Fairooz laughed, probably because she knew about the well-documented instances of Jeff Sessions opposing equal rights for Americans based on race, sexual orientation and gender. She laughed and she reacted at the absurdity of the claim.

The justice department accused her of ‘disorderly and disruptive conduct’ intended to ‘impede, disrupt, and disturb the orderly conduct’ of congressional proceedings,” and is now taking its case against Fairooz to court. If found guilty, Fairooz could be fined up to $500 and spend six months in jail.

Although video of the hearing showed no real disruption of the proceedings and showed no harm to Jeff Session, the Trump’s Justice Department is intent on seeing that Fairooz pay for committing such the heinous crime of laughing at a Trump appointee.

To hell with Fairooz’s First Amendment rights.
