Where's the fairness in this? They're going to prison for causing a traffic jam?
Holder got two border patrol agents killed and scores of Mexicans.
He walks.
Killary got four Americans killed in Benghazi and lied her ass off about her emails.
She walks.
Lerner and Koskinen both lied about targeting conservatives at the IRS and destroyed evidence to cover it up.
Both walked.
Want me to continue? Okay, try this one. How many Americans died at the hands of illegals because the fucking Democrats are importing future Democrats?

Former allies of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie were sentenced prison terms Wednesday for engineering lane closures at the George Washington Bridge as alleged retaliation against a Democratic mayor who didn't endorse the governor.
Bill Baroni, who served as deputy executive director of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, will spend two years behind bars and must do 500 hours of community service. His conspirator Bridget Anne Kelly was sentenced to 18 months in prison, plus a year of probation.
"I regret more than anything that I allowed myself to get caught up in this," Baroni told U.S. District Judge Susan Wigenton. "I failed."
His defense lawyers argued for leniency, noting his longtime work as an FBI informant when he was a state lawmaker.
But Assistant U.S. Attorney Lee Cortes responded that Baroni should have known better, and should have gone to authorities when he learned of the plot, but instead tried to cover it up.
You know, like when Holder's henchman at the the DOJ blew the whistle on him when he allowed 2,000 guns to walk over to the Mexican cartels.
Baroni "corrupted his office to send a petty, vindictive political message," Cortes said. He called Baroni's behavior "out of the playbook of some dictator in a banana republic."
Do they grow bananas in Mexico?
Before imposing the sentence, Wigenton told Baroni, "This is a sad day for the state of New Jersey, and in particular for you."
Wonder if she gave the same rebuke to her husband. Wigenton is married to Kevin Wigenton, an attorney in private practice in Red Bank, New Jersey who has been censured by the NJ Supreme Court for misappropriating client funds.
She added: "You have lived a life of service...that makes the offense that much more perplexing."
Wednesday's courtroom appearances will bring a likely end to the more than three-year-old scandal known as Bridgegate, which brought down members of Christie's inner circle and damaged his attempt to run for president. Witnesses at a fall trial alleged Christie knew about the plan beforehand. But Christie was never charged, and he maintains that he knew nothing about it until after it broke as a news story.
Kelly, author of the now-infamous email that said, "Time for some traffic problems in Fort Lee," and Baroni were seeking probation.
They will have time to appeal their sentences.
