    Pardoning affluent criminals has become standard operating procedure in the USA.

    But for the victims, it really adds insult to injury.

    As Walkinshaw says here: not only does the perpetrator go free, but suddenly the victims lose the right to claims that have been awarded to them in court.

    The fraudsters give part of the claim to Trump and go free.

    Pardoning criminals results in double injustice.

  3. As #Trump accelerates his #authoritarianism, #USPol could lose #democracy status, says global watchdog.

    It refers to ongoing events in the U.S. as unprecedented, mentioning Trump #pardoning 1,500 #criminals who supported him; #firing independent agency #watchdogs without process; #purging apolitical #police and #military brass; #ignoring #laws; and his unilaterally deleting federal programs, and even a whole organization, created by U.S. Congress

  4. Investigative Journalist #PaloaRamos was on "The Weekend" talking about #OrangeHitler #pardoning those 1500+ #Jan6 #terrorists.

    She asked one of them: "You said during your sentencing that you regretted what you had done and said if you could, you'd take it all back. Do you still feel that way?"

    He responds, "No. Not at all. I'd do it all over again, and if asked, I'd go again tomorrow." 🤦‍♂️ 😞

  6. #MtP showed a #poll where only 21% of people supported #pardoning most of the #Jan6 #terrorist.

    "Most"

    I wonder what the poll numbers would be for a #BLANKET #pardon of ALL of the #rioters who attacked the #Capitol and assaulted police officers? #LEO #BackTheBlueExcept #GeneralisimoDonald

  10. #OrangeHitler's justification for #pardoning the #Jan6 #terrorists *may* not meet the standard of justifiable reasons to #pardon someone ("egregious miscarriage of justice") and could very well be challenged in the courts.

    So says one of the judges who convicted them.
