Another fine example of “The Party of Law and Order” where all the rules apply to thee and not me.

I don’t know for certain, but she has a real “sovereign citizen” vibe going here. Repeatedly flouting the same laws over and over because she’s apparently convinced that she has some special immunity because she alone knows the correct interpretation of the legal text. Is QAnon just the next iteration?

Well she takes her vitamins, gets her rest, and tries to exercise regularly.
Oops did you mean she thinks that she’s immune to prosecution? My bad, I thought COVID.

Her blatantly holding up the recording iPad in the court room is like Woody Allen holding a loaf of bread to his face in Take the Money and Run. But unlike Virgil Starkwell, who doesn’t expect anyone to notice, it seems like she flaunted her flouting of the rules, expecting no negative consequences.
