Courthouse Rally Follows Judge’s Removal New Black Panther Party national chairwoman Krystal Muhammad spoke outside the Collin County Courthouse after visiting Judge Sid Harle removed District Judge John Roach Jr. from Karmelo Anthony’s post-trial proceedings.

I am thoroughly embarrassed to have ever defended the absolute coward that is your husband. You and Jim are some of the least accepting, most hypocritical people I’ve had the displeasure of knowing. I hope Jim goes to jail for his crimes.” That is not exactly a Hallmark family note, unless Hallmark has opened a federal-evidence division. https://twitter.com/paulsperry_/status/2090222951635284411?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw The Google Search Detail Sperry also reported last week that an FBI affidavit for a search warrant said Patrice Comey sent James Comey a Google screenshot of a nonviolent definition of “86” two minutes before he posted the shell photo on Instagram.
