    ...Were those judiciary findings or legislative? I don't actually think that the President can Pardon someone incarcerated by the Legislature. Maybe the solution to all this mess is for Congress to finally flex the Sergeant-at-Arms position. While there is a delegation to the Department of Justice for efficiency sake, there technically isn't anything preventing the Legislature from doing it's own footwork.

Stone was also involved in the Brooks riot helping getting bush the win. Amy Coney Barret and other supreme judges appointed by Trump were involved in the lawsuit brought to the supreme court. It's the same fucking people.
