Not every president does things like this. The pardoning of the Blackwater security guards is particularly egregious here. It is well known that the former head of Blackwater during these murders of civilians (and yes, that is what they were) was Erik Prince, who is the brother of Betsy DeVos, Trump's Secretary of Education. He has been lobbying for these pardons for years and also donating big money to Trump. This is despicable and swampy has hell... but we only have 4 more weeks of this crap.
Lol. Harris will be pres, not biden.
Biden's much healthier physically than the slob exiting the Oval officeBiden is a healthy man who should have a few good years left. Harris made a splash but did not catch on for very long. I will be surprised if she is the next Democratic nominee. It could happen, but I think she'll have to endure another long, hard race for the nomination.
So DeBartolo was convicted over some gambling or casino nonsense? Victimless crime?"President Donald Trump signed an executive order Tuesday granting a full pardon to Edward DeBartolo Jr., the former owner of the San Francisco 49ers who pleaded guilty to a felony charge for his involvement in a gambling fraud case in Louisiana in the late 1990s, according to White House spokesman Hogan Gidley.
DeBartolo was suspended from the NFL in 1997 and fined $1 million over an extortion case involving then-Louisiana Gov. Edwin W. Edwards. As the star witness, DeBartolo testified that he paid Edwards $400,000 in exchange for his help in securing a riverboat casino license. Edwards was convicted of on racketeering, conspiracy and extortion charges in 2000.
DeBartolo eventually ceded control of the 49ers to his sister, but was still inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2016 for presiding over a team that earned five Super Bowl trophies during the 1980s and ‘90s."
Must be cool to be able to buy "justice", huh? Hurrah for America!
