Cole Allen tried to kill the President and probably some of his Cabinet members as well. He disrupted a whole event that had to be cancelled after thousands of dollars and hours of time went into planning it. He terrified pregnant women and caused men to crawl out of their hands and knees in hopes they may see their families again. Yet, today a judge apologized to the man. Yes, really.

Magistrate Judge Zia Faruqui said that he was “fascinated and disturbed” by Allen's treatment in jail.
Allen was placed on suicide watch when he was first imprisoned. Prosecutors argued that since Allen… pic.twitter.com/3X88PVK45E
It seems very fair for the police to think someone who ran armed at the Secret Service had a suicide wish. If they hadn't put him in restraints and he killed himself, this judge would be the first one to say the police should have protected him from himself.

When Judges don't care about the lives of our President, things are bad.

Also, why even bring up January 6 Defendants. They have nothing at all to do with this case. Also ... they were treated horribly.
We have a serious judicial problem in this country https://t.co/yN0Vl8sA3b

This man nearly killed federal officers on his suicide mission to assassinate the President of the United States, so naturally a federal judge is apologizing to him for being restrained. https://t.co/035XtYJ1TL

“He then ordered Allen to be released, gave him a kiss on the forehead, and carried him out of the courthouse in his arms like that scene in ‘An Officer and a Gentleman.’” https://t.co/UdxOFdCWUb

And who also very clearly hates America.
I don’t understand the connection between the January 6 protesters and Cole Allen.

The judge seems to be implying some partisan treatment at play.
The apology especially seems like an unusual and ill-advised statement to make. https://t.co/dWCWtiA4RR
The judge should be removed from the bench immediately.

That explains quite a lot.
“As the first Muslim Judge to be appointed to the Federal Court in Washington D.C., Judge Faruqui has also devoted much of his career to diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts.”https://t.co/1Wd3KY0JfA https://t.co/EkoF74u6M2
