......Jane and John Doe are eating their dinner and perhaps preparing to watch some TV to relax from a busy, hard day. Hard working Americans, especially those raising a family, may not have the time to pay attention to the constant swirl of news. So, while they certainly know inflation has cramped their monthly budget, they may not know the name Enrique Tarrio. Meaning they think this story is of no consequence to them.
Tarrio, who is serving a 22-year prison sentence in Louisiana — the longest term of anyone convicted in relation to the riot — is expecting to soon get a grant of clemency from Trump, attorney Nayib Hassan told NBC.
“He is being processed out,” Hassan said. “We do not know what type of clemency he is receiving.”
Tarrio was one of four members of the far-right Proud Boys group found guilty of seditious conspiracy in May 2023. He was given 22 years in prison, the longest Jan. 6 sentence to date, though he was not in Washington for the attack itself. He had been arrested and ordered to stay away from the capital and was convicted of planning and organizing Proud Boys members to assault the Capitol in the lead-up to Jan. 6.
Attorney General Merrick Garland said after their sentencing that Tarrio and his fellow Proud Boys played a "central role" in leading the Jan. 6 mob to breach the Capitol.

If I were to ask them, "remember when there was going to be a case by case review of the Jan. 6 convicts? Remember when the ones convicted of violence against police officers weren't going to be pardoned?" To which I'd likely get a blank stare.
I submit a blanket pardon that includes violent criminals, because they are on Team trump, is of consequence to Jane and John. What I worry about is they don't care if it is or not. They just want to believe their lives are going to get easier.
