Another clemency catastrophe in the making. As you are painfully aware, many of the people that Trump has pardoned end up committing more crimes and back in prison. There were a lot of sociopaths who showed up to storm the Capitol on January 6, 2021. Some of them may have been *innocent* people who believed wrongly that something had gone awry with the 2020 election. That’s fine. Then you peacefully assemble and you peacefully protest, as the Constitution ordains is your right to do. But smashing glass, breaking down doors, defecating on floors, and particularly assaulting police officers is not in that worthy document. Neither is threatening to shoot FBI agents like this charmer wants to.
JUST IN: Trump pardoned Suzanne Kaye, who was sentenced to 18 months for threatening to shoot FBI agents.

The way she guzzles the whisky is a bit beyond social drinking, methinks. Isn’t she the flower of civilization, as women are supposed to be? Don’t get me wrong, nobody loves a ballsy, principaled female more than I do, but this gal is just clueless and crass.
Not to mention the fact that her pardon does tend to conflict with Trump’s notions about “backing the blue” doncha think? Or, maybe he doesn’t consider the FBI to be part of the blue. That is a possibility. After all, Trump associates the FBI with the likes of James Comey, the guy who just wouldn’t play ball and forget about the transgressions of Michael Flynn — among other things. Trump’s resentments of Comey go wayyyy back and are multi-layered. And the whiskey guzzler isn’t the only one who got pardoned today.
President Trump issued pardons this weekend to two people convicted of crimes stemming from the events of Jan. 6, 2021, but not directly tied to the attack on the Capitol, expanding the scope of the broad clemency he had already granted to those caught up in the prosecutions related to the riot.
The pardons were announced online on Saturday by Ed Martin, a longtime supporter of the Jan. 6 rioters who is the Justice Department’s pardon attorney. And they were part of Mr. Trump’s continuing efforts to rewrite the history of Jan. 6 and to depict those who took part in the storming of the Capitol not as criminals, but rather as victims of a weaponized justice system — much like he sees himself.
Mr. Trump issued the first of the two pardons on Friday night to Daniel Edwin Wilson, a militiaman based in Kentucky who, like all of the nearly 1,600 other rioters who took part in the Capitol attack, had been issued a presidential reprieve for the crimes he committed on Jan. 6.
But Mr. Wilson was also facing separate gun charges after federal agents discovered a cache of illegal weapons and thousands of rounds of ammunition in his home as he was being investigated in connection with the storming of the Capitol.
His lawyers argued that the initial pardon covered those crimes, claiming that he never would have been prosecuted but for the Jan. 6-related inquiry. A federal judge in Washington disagreed. In a ruling in March, the judge, Dabney L. Friedrich, said that Mr. Trump’s first round of pardons covered only offenses that were directly related to the Capitol attack and ordered Mr. Wilson to serve a portion of the five-year sentence he had received for both the gun offenses and the Jan. 6-related charges.
As he sat in jail, Mr. Wilson, who had pleaded guilty to joining a conspiracy to impede or injure officers at the Capitol, became a cause célèbre among the small group of activists and lawyers that advocates on behalf of Jan. 6 rioters, many of whom have close ties to Mr. Martin.
Other pardoned rioters have also been charged with crimes — like the possession of child pornography — that stemmed from the investigation of their roles in the Capitol attack. But Mr. Trump has not yet issued separate pardons to any of them.
They’re all charmers. They are all deplorables. These are the “low propensity, low information people” that is core MAGA, we are told by Steve Bannon. I understand dummies like this voting for the reality TV host, that I get. The problem I have is wrapping my head around how the entire Republican party decided to soil itself by this infernal association.
In all events, it’s bought and paid for now. The Trump sticker price looks to be pretty high this year and let’s see what happens when the check all comes due on November 3, 2026. Let’s see who’s sorry now. That might well become the new theme song for the GOP, saddled with their demented, term limited, orange tinted idiot fool.
