When the hell did William Henry Harrison find the time to pardon 3 people? He was President for a little over a month and most of that was on his deathbed with pneumonia.

No hearings on Clinton’s last second pardons in 2000 or Obama pardoning nearly 2000 people but they will lose their shite over the hairdo getting his sentence commuted.

Show me where this process exists in the constitution.
Correct and

“Today, Trump granted clemency to tax cheats, Wall Street crooks, billionaires, and corrupt government officials,” Sanders tweeted. “Meanwhile thousands of poor and working-class kids sit in jail for nonviolent drug convictions. This is what a broken and racist criminal justice system looks like.”
Bernie has been a Law Maker in the US Congress for how long now? (1991 according to Wikipedia) Perhaps if he voted against, or rewrote some legislation, or did something other than his old man get off the lawn routine, these thousands of poor would not be incarcerated now.

A Democrat said he expected the House to investigate this week's wave of presidential commutations and pardons, including the commutation of former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich’s prison sentence.


Well I'm so glad the Democrats running the house are going to get back to doing important things in helping you run the.....


Nah, just kidding. It's more impeach 45.

They have forgotten how to do anything other than "get Trump" and "OMB." They literally can't help themselves.

Obama 1,927 Trump 34


This is the only time that anti-American race-baiting community organizer has ever "beat" Trump at anything.

To what end?

Are they exploring a Constitutional amendment about it?

Cant wait for schiff to interview Kanye about the pardon. Of course there is also Hall of Famers Derrick Brooks, Jerry Rice and Jim Brown waiting to be examined.

Democrats cannot allow for that to happen!!!! That is not part of their PROCESS...

Nowhere

Everyone likes to bitch about pardons but I am in the train of there should be way way way way more pardons. The President can do a lot to fix absolutely bullshite federal justice with pardons. Say every single person convicted of a federal gun crime, pardon.

The power is absolute and its not even a question.

Of course these pieces of shite would claim its impeachable.

They are truly trying to impede Trump at every turn. They are despicable and I hope they pay for all of their shenanigans in November.
