A single federal prosecution for 100 days of Portland riots, burning federal buildings, literally killing people
Looks like most of them took plea deals and had charges deferred for community service.

I can only find one dude actually serving jail time, and he was on video committing arson.

Why Antifa is allowed to operate as a domestic terror organization with impunity after years and $2B worth of national damage
The 1st amendment. I remember seeing this pop up back when Trump wanted to designate them as such. Membership in terrorist organizations is not illegal, only actions that already rise to the level of criminality is.
It's why the KKK/(your pick of terror org) can parade around and do all the talking they want, but it isn't illegal until they take action.
I tend to support the idea of being against the government being able to go after domestic groups, because who decides what a "terrorist" is?
We've already had posts on here about how the DOD has labeled lots of vet-associated groups as "extremists"; you wanna let the government pick who the terrorists are?
Where the charges are for the guy that tried to kill a supreme court justice after the left BEGGED for violence (Incitement?)
His case is in process as far as I can tell. Seems he should be in/just passed pretrial.

Why are Jan 6 rioters being held in solitary confinement on misdemeanors
They're being held in a separate wing of the prison "For their safety", allegedly.

I don't work at the D.C. prison, so I can't say whether that's a legit security concern or not. I can say that the situation described in the article isn't "solitary confinement", it's single celled housing; I know it sounds like semantics, but there's a legit difference between the two . What is done at the ADMAX down in Florence (single cell, no rec/communication with others, very limited programing in groups) is what people think of when they think solitary.
These guys are still allowed to communicate and spend time with each other, albeit limited amounts compared to an open yard.
They should also probably have bonded out if it's misdemeanors, but I can't find good reasons for why not.
I don't want that to come across like I'm condoning their overall conditions/detention, because I'm not. I just don't think they're all that unique in how they are being treated compared to regular inmates/people awaiting charges.
The other ones will either never have answers (Vegas) or have "answers only in the reader's political flavor" (Biden, Trump raid, etc)
