I still don't understand how the judge connected this to January 6th and said it is as dangerous. Was that trump assigned judge or something?

Edit: it wasn't, I still don't understand how placing equality sign between this and January 6th. Also if they are equal, he is still getting a harsher sentence than most.

It's not like Jan 6th. The people saying it is are trying to both-sides their insurrection. Notice they're calling Biden's management of the border "traitorous" as well. They'll be calling everything they can treason or insurrection until November, or they find something that resonates at which point they'll start opening BS congressional inqueries or impeachment cases about. Because once congress says they're investigating something, it must be real, right?
