Paul Hodgkins is not my enemy.” Fighting back tears, Patrick Leduc, an attorney representing a man charged in connection with the January 6 protest at the Capitol, made that statement in a dramatic court hearing Monday morning. Leduc, by the way, is no snowflake. On Tuesday, the 33-year-old U.S. Army reservist will be deployed to the Middle East for his third tour.
Leduc cited his military oath—to protect the country from “against all enemies, foreign and domestic”—to refute the government’s accusation that Paul Hodgkins, 38, is a domestic terrorist. “Words have meaning,” Leduc told U.S. District Court Judge Randoph Moss. “I have been shot at by real terrorists.

Our Group's Take - They're calling him a "domestic terrorist" and yet he hurt no one,
damaged nothing, didn't even force his way into the building or the
Senate floor... he was protesting for election
integrity. What's more, they're calling him a domestic terrorist -
and yet the prosecutors only asked for 18 months in jail... and didn't
charge him with terrorism, sedition, insurrection, or anything else of
the sort. And the judge says it's only worth 8 months, with that only
to "send a message" to others, not because of this guy's actual
actions! He was branded a felon for life for this... when the
Capitol Police Chief in charge Jan. 6th testified to Congress that the
Senate wasn't evacuated because of the protestors at all, but because of
the pipe bombs found at the RNC and DNC!! So exactly how did this guy
even "obstruct an official proceeding" when his presence had nothing to do with them being evacuated?
