They're all getting pardoned.
- direwolf20 9mo agoFederal pardons only work for federal charges, which murder isn't. A future administration cold, but won't, choose to ignore the law about parsons just like this one is ignoring the law about murder and torture.
- cosmicgadget 9mo agoI believe they will try to use removal to get it into federal courts.
- AnimalMuppet 9mo agoDoes removal let a federal pardon apply to a state crime, even if it's tried in federal court?
- cosmicgadget 9mo agoGood question. I suppose Trump doesn't much care, he already attempted to pardon that lady who gave balloting material to Mike Pillow. He'll just go issue the pardons and let the courts sort it out. Or he could have the DOJ charge all of ICE, get the cases removed to federal court, then do an Eric Adams job on them. That'd be a sight to behold.
- OutOfHere 9mo agoAre pardons issued by a felon actually valid? It is for a future court to decide in a subsequent administration.
- cosmicgadget 9mo agoUnfortunately as long as that felon was elected president, yes.
