It wasn't a full pardon, was it?  I think his sentence was commuted. 

This was far from the worst case of criminals being set free since Trump took office. :D

Maybe we should make it a competition and just release all criminals?

It does make it a difficult sell being pro justice when you defend people that pardon criminals?

You could always just say that you're fine with it as long as they vote the right way?

If it was an autopen, who are you blaming?

All I'm saying is that if Trump want's to pretend to be pro law/justice, maybe don't pardon people who raid the capital or are convicted of things like identity theft.  It makes people who don't worship him think he's full of shit.

Trump is way beyond giving a tiny shit what anybody thinks. He's a full blown autocrat/fascist figure head now.

Trump is the President of a country who's government has been shut down by the minority party.
A full blown autocrat/fascist figure head would be stacking bodies by now.
I think your rhetoric is a bit overwrought.  ::)

Secret police in masks, federalizing national guards, U.S. military being deployed in our own cities, artillery being fired over civilian highways....

I know you're a loyal Republican and will play ignorant if it furthers your cause but you're not stupid.

1. ICE performing their duty.. they are masked due to threats against themselves and their families
2. Presidents do that all the time.
3. Deemed permitted conduct by the Supreme Court
4. You've been listening to that idiot Newsome again

local news station

QuoteOn Wednesday, Newsom raised concerns about live-fire demonstrations near Interstate 5 at Camp Pendleton.

That's what prompted initial concerns about closing the major freeway. Officials said it had the potential to affect the 80,000 vehicles that travel through that area daily.

However, while a Marine Corps press release from Oct. 15, 2025, stated there would be an amphibious live-fire demonstration, it never mentioned that any live rounds would be fired near or over Interstate 5.

The release states that a detailed risk assessment showed no highways needed to be closed. The press release's exact wording was the following:

"All training events will occur on approved training ranges and comport with established safety protocols. No public highways or transportation routes will be closed. In advance of the training event and demonstration, we conducted a detailed risk assessment. All participants will be briefed, medical, fire, and emergency assets will be on site, and multiple rehearsals will be conducted. All air, surface, and ground movements are scripted and rehearsed in accordance with standard operating procedures and established safety checklists."

Pretty much every politician, judge, etc, have been threatened these days. Do we mask everyone? 

I get the argument, but it allows people to do things they otherwise wouldn't.
