When Georgia residents Savannah Danielle McDonald and Nolan Harold Kidd emerged from the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, and began giving interviews to journalists and posting on social media, there was little evidence they believed they had done anything wrong.
“We were definitely within the first 100-150 people in that building,” McDonald told a freelance journalist in a video posted to YouTube.
“I did get a souvenir,” Kidd said, whipping off his red “Make America Great Again” hat to reveal a cap belonging to the Capitol Police. Kidd even provided the journalists with cell phone video he took from inside the Capitol showing rioters shouting threats through a haze of tear gas.
But at their sentencing in separate federal court hearings this week, they told the judge their actions that day were profoundly wrong.
“Honestly, on (Jan. 7) I had the feeling that that was wrong,” McDonald said. “It was very dumb.”
In a teleconferenced hearing from Washington, U.S. District Court Judge Christopher Cooper on Tuesday sentenced McDonald to 21 days in prison. On Monday, he sentenced Kidd to 45 days.

Hank Johnson, the group of eight Democrats told Thomas in a letter dated Dec. 15 that the activities of his wife, Ginni Thomas, after the 2020 election raise "serious questions" about his ability to remain impartial in cases before the high court that involve the last presidential election and the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Trump asks Supreme Court not to weigh in, now, on whether he's immune from Jan. 6 charges

He wants the usual appeals process to play out rather than speed up the issue.

After being revealed as Donut on the singing reality show and finishing in second place on Wednesday night (December 20th), Schneider shared the following tweet: “Mr. President, I believe you are guilty of treason and should be publicly hung. Your son too. Your response is..? Sincerely, John Schneider.”

The since-deleted post was in response to Biden’s tweet about former President Donald Trump, in which he wrote, “Trump poses many threats to our country: The right to choose, civil rights, voting rights, and America’s standing in the world. But the greatest threat he poses is to our democracy. If we lose that, we lose everything.”

See a screenshot of the tweet (via Vulture West Coast TV editor Joe Adalian) and watch The Masked Singer reveal below.

A proud conservative, Schneider has long been a vocal critic of Biden on social media, recently accusing the president of funding Hamas’ attack on Israel. He has also guested on pro-Trump networks like One America News and Newsmax.

After starring as Bo Duke in the original Dukes of Hazzard from 1979 to 1985, Schneider played Jonathan Kent on CW’s Smallville from 2001 to 2005 and was a recurring guest on the 10th and final season. In 2018, he also lost on another reality show when he was eliminated from Dancing with the Stars.

Supreme Court declines to fast-track Trump immunity dispute in blow to special counsel

The high court's decision paves the way for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit to rule first on whether the former president can be prosecuted for allegedly attempting to thwart the transfer of presidential power after the 2020 presidential election. The move does not preclude the losing party — Trump or Smith — from seeking the Supreme Court's review again after the appeals court makes its determination.
