“John Oliver took aim at Donald Trump’s use of pardons on his HBO show last night and discussed how the US president prioritizes supporters and Maga donors. “The executive power to pardon someone from federal crimes is enshrined in the constitution, and it’s basically unchecked,” Oliver said on Last Week Tonight. That can often be a good thing, but Trump has often pardoned his own allies and well-known figures such as George Santos and Rudy Giuliani.” Guardian UK. Two wrongs don’t make it right either!
“On January 20, 2001, with only hours left in his term as president of the United States, Bill Clinton issued 140 presidential pardons and several commutations to people that had been convicted of federal criminal offenses. The granting of clemency to these criminals, some of whom were Clinton’s relatives and friends, was met with much criticism from the American people, including an ex-president. These actions became known by some in Washington circles as “Pardongate”. Hub Pages. Didn’t Biden do the same thing?
And that is all I’m going to say about that!
