Trump pardons 26 more, including Manafort, Roger Stone and Kushner’s father
President Donald Trump announced pardons for 26 people. They include his friend Roger Stone, former campaign head Paul Manafort, and Charles Kushner, the father of his son-in-law Jared Kushner. Manafort and Stone were convicted of crimes related to the Robert Mueller-led Russia investigation. A day earlier, Trump pardoned George Papadopoulos and former Iraq contractors convicted of a massacre.
So? What were their "crimes"? Why do you care more about this, than the blatant corruption of the Biden family - son a known drug user and influence peddler, niece that was just recently sentenced to NO jail time for her DUI. Do you *really* think that Trump is the epitome of corruption? If so, you are closing your eyes to what is happening around you.
Keep it up! Hopefully Snowden and Assange will be free soon too I just want it all to stick in the craws of all those swamp dwellers.
Now watch all the republicans make excuses about how it’s okay because they’re innocent or something. It’s simply corruption, no matter how legal. Seriously, pardoning your daughters father-in-law? Pardoning a friend who had covid cause he might get it again, after you said you had immunity? How more blatantly corrupt can a single human be?
Sadly this isn't anything new or profound. Every president does it. Obama for instance was known for pardoning more than the previous 13 presidents combined. His list included terrorists and murderers. It's all horrible.
Keep in mind only criminals need pardons. Also to accept a pardon is to by definition of the law, admit your guilt - in case you didn't know that. Also only criminals pardon criminals. Let that sink in
Par for the course from our Gangster-in-Chief. The bald faced corruption and lawlessness oozing from this administration is BEYOND stunning.
Fantastic! Well Done President Trump!👍🏻🇺🇸👍🏻 These Men were railroaded in political agendas to spoil their names with complete nonsense and now President Trump has righted those wrongs. All the REAL Americans will miss you President Trump and everything you did and sacrificed for this country. 👍🏻🇺🇸👍🏻
About time. Considering the whole Russian scandals was a hoax, no one should have been in jail aside from those that brought the hoax forward.
FUCKIN' PARDON ASSANGE AND SNOWDEN ALREADY!
"WaTCH REpUbLicaNS MaKe EXcuSes IN 3..2..1" Like one side is some how more innocent of making excuses for their own political side 😂
Sadly as evidenced by all the name calling coming from the left inclined, the comment quality is dwindling. Turning into a dumpster fire like twitter.
What were their "crimes"? How about the 14 unarmed Iraqi's that were massacred? Ive not seen it discussed on here and it's not mentioned in any of the right wing articles linked in this story.
When you are reading all this drivel that those punch drinkers are spewing trying desperately to defend the absolute worst president in the ENTIRE history of the US. This isn't as shocking as it might seem when you remember the number of foreign influencers out there and yes there's those folks that are naturally a little slow but that's not their fault as this is usually a genetic trait. Future historians will have a dissertation subject for decades dissecting the cause and effects of tRumps inexplicable cult following. Trump did say his punch drinkers would support him post street shooting (and you thought he was kidding) So much for the "law and order president" bs Oh and why wouldn't you pardon a gem like big daddy Kushner? He is such a kind hearted person and every sister's dream for a brother. Lol
Will you look at that even Ivanka s father in law get to plea guilty in exchange for a pardon . Nothing but the best for the tarnish white House
It’s not unusual for President’s to issue mass pardons near the end of their terms, because they don’t have to worry about how it changes their electability. FDR has had the most pardons of any President at 2,819 and Obama made 212. So far Trump has made a total of 92 and I’m certain we will see more before his term is up.
https://newsvoice.com/i/11910680 was originally for Colorado Governor Polis pardon of balloon boy parents but it got hijacked for 45 pardons
Love seeing people say "Who cares" while Trump pardons literal war crimes who slaughtered civilians. Why does America have such low standards for the president?
When did this turn into a place for stand up comedy? The pardons are nothing the act of a mob boss, and are disgusting. Hunter Biden is the new, “What about her emails?” All you guys need is a whiff of an allegation and the next thing you know, you’re shooting up some poor guys pizza shop. . . but you somehow miss the whole Kushner/Trump influence peddling and self enrichment truck that’s been backed up to the White House since the first day Trump got back from Moscow. The Blackwater war crime is completely indefensible, but I guess he feels he has to keep the reich tight. The Don has a few days left to shake the royal rattle and turn his collaborators into witnesses who can’t plead the fifth, so let’s see how that works out for him. And I know you all will never stop whining the lunacy that he was robbed, like that doesn’t make him an even bigger loser... when even Pat Robertson tells you you are living in a fantasy world, it’s time to climb down off the unicorn, Dorothy, and go lick your wounds , and the rest of you with him.
People who think he’ll just pardon our beloved whistleblowers next have completely lost the plot. You guys are literally a living meme lmao
I'm looking forward to all the right wingers defending this blatant abuse of power... ok go!
