MAGA rioter gets into 'shouting match' with judge — and gets hit with big sentence: report

A Trump supporter who was found guilty of assaulting police at the January 6th, 2021 riots at the United States Capitol building reportedly got into a "shouting match" with a judge on Tuesday shortly before he was hit with a hefty prison sentence. As reported by Politico's Kyle Cheney on Bluesky, Judge Reggie Walton sentenced Capitol rioter Michael Bradley to five years in prison after he was convicted this past summer of multiple felony and misdemeanor offenses, including civil disorder; assaulting, resisting, or impeding certain officers; entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds with a deadly or dangerous weapon; disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds with a deadly or dangerous weapon; and engaging in physical violence in a restricted building or grounds with a deadly or dangerous weapon. During the sentencing, wrote Cheney, Walton grew upset that Bradley tried to claim that he "wasn't targeting police" when he repeatedly swung batons at them during the January 6th riots. According to Cheney, at this point Walton and Bradley got into a "shouting match" and Walton warned the convicted Trump supporter that he was "digging more of a hole" for himself.
