'Uncharted waters.' Judges are banning some Capitol riot suspects from the internet




WASHINGTON — Beverly Hills esthetician and eyelash stylist Gina Bisignano was so present on social media that the federal criminal complaint against her practically wrote itself.
The story of a 52-year-old salon owner who charted a dark path of disinformation to the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, where she allegedly grabbed a bullhorn and urged rioters to take up weapons, is backed by one social media post after another embedded in the Department of Justice filing.

There is Bisignano in her Louis Vuitton sweater, filmed in front of the Capitol talking about her business and hometown as the riot was getting underway. There she is again, addressing rioters with a rant about globalists, George Soros and stolen votes. And again, calling for weapons and gas masks moments before a rioter attacks an officer with what appears to be a baseball bat.

Now, Bisignano has gone silent online. She is not allowed on the internet. Not because social media platforms banned her, but because a federal judge did. If Bisignano goes online while awaiting trial, she risks being jailed....

...where she belongs?

Oops - maybe she's white under the orange and black paint. Hard to be sure, but that's a get out of jail card, if true.

Prima facie evidence of malicious malpractice. Those lips didn't get that way by accident...that had to be on purpose.

She can use another woman’s I’d to access the internet from a library, never mind using someone else’s personal computer.
