A Tennessee man pardoned by Trump in January for his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the U.S. Capitol will nevertheless serve a life sentence for plotting to attack FBI agents and seeking to incite a "civil war," according to prosecutors.

Edward Kelley, who was the fourth U.S. Capitol rioter to enter the building on Jan. 6, 2021, faced a separate prosecution for targeting federal agents while he was being investigated for his role in the Capitol attack.

The Justice Department argued Kelley created a "kill list" of FBI agents and others who investigated his role in the Jan. 6 siege. Prosecutors said Kelley "distributed this list — along with videos containing images of certain FBI employees identified on the list — to a co-conspirator as part of his 'mission.'"

It really should set a precedent. This was before Trump had “immunity” and if he did the same thing….

But we all know that won’t happen.

Yeah, I'm not even sure if successive, rapidfire GOP head-esplodey on live-TV a la The Boys would do the trick. Ya know, if superpowers were a thing.🤷🏼‍♂️

This country's so far gone, the wisest plan'd seem to be decisive, silent distancing —but the fallout's inherently global, so 🫠☠️🫣
