    Gosh, this is so stunning and shocking. Never would have seen this coming, I mean, he doesn’t even look like an antifa drag queen.

    You mean to tell me the people that are willing to violently storm a government building riled up by an egomaniac with an inferiority complex were actually criminals to begin with? *surprised pikachu face*

      If you read it, he broke the law before Jan 6th. They had asked the administration not to pardon him because of his previous crimes. They did anyway. So in the spirit of efficiency, resources had to spend two weeks trying to find him again.
      And they claim the dems are weak on crime…

        I read or heard in the news that the reason it was a blanket pardon is because Trump got bored when they were discussing all the details lol

          Well even if he didn’t, it would have taken weeks to go through them all and make recommendations. They were in a rush to do lots of dumb things all at once, so it would be hard to continue caring.

        I did read it, and my statement is still the same, a criminal broke laws. I didn’t say he did it after he was released.

          Using “no one saw this coming” implied an order to the events. I apologize for implying you didn’t read it. You just used a catchphrase in the wrong context. Seems like your heart is in the right place though.

    In case people miss it- warrant is from 2016 but since the warrant had already been issued then the legal process had been started and there’s no statue of limitations to make it expire.
