What’s that saying that all those conservatives say? Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time.

Later loser!

Is he going to raise Hell or remember his crucial mistake?
Kind of confused again.

His lawyer wrote a nice statement of contrition for the judge, but his comment about his plans for the future indicates he is still an entitled asshole who doesn’t understand that if you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime.

Looks like three months wasn’t enough to teach this half-wit inbred POS a lesson. How about we just kick his ass until he cries for Mother Russia. Fucking moron.

“Whenever I decide to run for office, I’m going to win, and I’m going to raise absolute hell in DC,” he added. “Liberals and RINOs [Republicans In Name Only] will be exposed every single day.”

Yeah, you’re a convicted felon. Try running for office ANYWHERE, dumbass.

Derrick Evans took to Truth Social, ex-President Donald Trump’s Twitter knockoff

That Twitter knockoff looks to be a choice venue for people confessing their crimes.

“I’m a good person who was unfortunately caught up in a moment which led to me breaking the law. I accept full responsibility for my actions,” he told the judge.

And the lie detector determined that was a lie.

Edit: Apparently, he has a habit of lying re: Jan 6th

Court records show Evans met with the FBI twice and made false claims in both meetings. In the first, he told agents that police were allowing rioters into the Capitol, though he narrates his own video saying, “There’s cops on the inside stopping us now!” In the second meeting, Evans claimed he brought a helmet to the Capitol to protect himself against antifa members but repeatedly told others that it was “patriots” breaching barriers and assaulting police, prosecutors said.

I’m surprised he hasn’t said “Jay-Zuss told me to do it”.

“Whenever I decide to run for office, I’m going to win"

Because my constituents are so stupid all they care about is making sure a traitor to democracy represents them, or at least loudly proclaims traitorous thoughts on a daily basis (on their behalf).
