Both Steves (Miller & Bannon) scribbling furiously in their notepads “treason badly, mitigating factor in sentencing”
The judge noted that Yoon took the lead in planning the insurrection, caused immense social costs, showed no remorse, and failed to participate in the trial faithfully. The court acknowledged as mitigating factors that he refrained from using physical force and that the planning was not meticulous.

I personally wouldn’t consider “you rolled the weakest ass coup imaginable” as a mitigating but it’s funny to throw it in his face like this at least.

![A web toon comic by dami_lee
Panel 1: A cheerful butterfly with a rainbow trail caption "Butterfly in the sky"
Panel 2: The reading rainbow guy is seen flying over the butterfly at great speed saying "I can go twice as high". The butterfly looks nervously at him
Panel 3: Caption "take a look, it's in a book" he's now holding a book up to the butterfly that says "ANYTHING YOU CAN DO I CAN DO BETTER".
Panel 4: Caption [tauntingly] "Reading rainbowww". He's holding up a page of the book that says "YOU AIN'T SHIT" and the butterfly is crying.
Below the comic: based on a tweet from Allegra Ringo (@allegraringo) I like that the reading rainbow song starts off by aggressively one-upping butterflies](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hczumzjogclwdoxi5zzixsmb/bafkreidaeq7564m6ylueugcokyrgpdwgodjxd4noaihucnx2z7ccn2lw5m@jpeg)

That was confirmed by YouGov soon afterwards
