@pbsnews: A look at Trump's controversial pardons for political allies and loyalists In his second term, President Trump has moved to pardon many who are considered to be loyal to him, from local Republican officials convicted of fraud to Jan. 6 rioters. The New York Times reported that Trump pardoned a Florida businessman convicted of tax evasion after his mother attended a million dollar per-plate fundraising dinner at Mar-a-Lago. Laura Barrón-López discussed more with Liz Oyer. #pbsnewshour #newshour #pbsnews #news #trumpadministration #presidentialpardon #toddchrisley #juliechrisley

The pardon power is not (just) being politicized, it’s being sold to the highest bidders. :patiently waiting for someone to do something:

This is why this administration wants to defund PBS, oligarch propaganda media will not report on this type of corruption without white washing it.

The 25th Amendment is in the Constitution for a reason. This entire administration is violating the Supreme Court. Germany had similar issues…I’m sure it’s a coincidence.

Can we start also reporting on and calling out the government officials who have the power to stop all of this and yet refuse to?

we're pardoning criminals, inviting cartel family members, dismantling the operating apparatus of every agency except the military. and deporting and rending average people.

I don’t see how we can have a serious discussion about pardons while acting like Biden’s last minute pardons weren’t warranted.

This just re-inforces the notion that those that have money are above the law.

That’s why “donating” his presidential salary is a show. He makes $1,000,000 a person. Thats two year salary per plate.
