Pardon count....Obama, Biden, Trump....more media distortion

As with all other things MSM Trump is the Ultimate Evil!

The people who had their sentences commutted in the last few days were not pardoned.

They still have convictions on their records.

Most of them were released from Federal custody already due to their age and ill health.

Yeah .... The difference between peanuts and peanut butter. I think the point is that it's the Presidential pardoning power that made it possible.

Well, there's a pretty big difference between a pardon and a commutation.

A pardon means you were excused from all culpability.

A commutation just means that your sentence was a bit harsh.

Biden's commutations are particularly meaningless in that all of these people had already been transferred to home confinement due to their age and medical status.

This is going to be an increasing problem as we have a jail population that is aging. How do we handle thousands of septuagenarian and octogenarian prisoners? While I have no problem with Charlie Manson being in prison until he died, I'm less sanguine about the lady who embezzled from her town for decades, and they recovered most of the money.

Final note, I do think there should be an ability by Congress to cancel a pardon if it is found to be unethical. Maybe with a 3/5th majority in both houses.

Dems championed Chicago-area man now charged with attempted murder after Obama commuted his sentence

A man whose life prison sentence was commuted by Barack Obama, and who now faces more prison time after being charged with attempted murder, was once a darling of Democrats in Congress.

Yeah.....who cares that Biden is letting people out of prison who caused the deaths of cancer patients by stealing their drugs and selling them to someone else. Or child-traffickers and Fentanyl traffickers.

Who could care less that their sentences were commuted.

Clearly Biden is selling his presidential power to the highest bidder again,

How much is a pardon worth to a billionaire who has been murdering kids in Africa for 30 years.

whaaa, get used to it it ain't gonna stop.

You leave out the part where he was sentenced for a drug offense, not a violent one.

These people were already out of prison and on home confinement.

Who could care less that their sentences were commuted.

You clearly didn't when they were sent to home confinement during Covid

I'd ask if you had a link to that, but you are probably full of shit.

[ColonelAngus]

The left bend over backwards to
Mince words for their leaders, then they FACT CHECK a photoshop of Trump in a Steelers uniform to make sure no one thinks he actually played for the Steelers.

GFY

Democrats are the party of CRIME and CRIMINALS so it doesn't surprised me one damn bit.

since always.

Now, if they shot people in the course of dealing drugs, that would be a different issue.

Of course, we could do the incredibly rational thing of legalizing drugs and treating addiction as a medical issue, but we won't do that.

 

[elektra]

The Biden pardons are illegal. Biden is mentally incapable of understanding who, what, when, and where

How's that legalize drugs thing working in Cali and the People's Republic of Portland, Joey?

Oh, please.

The reason why drugs are still illegal in this country is that we have too many ******* moral scolds of both stripes trying to moralize for us.
