Weiss (unsurprisingly) gives a really bad-faith mischaracterization of this. What the prosecutor noted was the defendant's frame of mind because they had to in order to calculate what sentence to ask for. It's not political, it's a formula and you can read it for yourself https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/17441998/67/united-stat...

Well, Weiss didn't write this article. It was written by Aaron Sibarium, a contributing writer, not by Bari herself. She may well agree with his major points, however.
