Fox News host Mark Levin said this week that a Jan. 6 rioter convicted of threatening to hang then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and accosting police didnt do anything. (Listen to the audio below.)

On his syndicated radio show Wednesday, Levin mentioned the two-year prison sentence given to Pauline Bauer, a Pennsylvania restaurant owner.

And I see that a woman today, in a bench trial ... was sentenced to two years and she literally didnt do anything. She simply said, lets get whatever she said about Pelosi.

The whatever included Bauer yelling at police to bring them out or were coming in during the Capitol siege, prosecutors said. Bring Nancy Pelosi out of here now. We want to hang that fucking bitch . Bring her out. She also shoved a cop.

Levin asked his guest, Julie Kelly of the far-right outlet American Greatness, if Bauer did anything.

Kelly replied: No, she didnt.

Levin, who also hosts Life, Liberty & Levin on Fox News, called Judge Trevor McFaddens sentence a disaster.

These judges are out of control, commented Kelly, adding that the House Jan. 6 committee and other accounts of the siege were a total fabrication.
