Pardoned or granted clemency.

MAGA loves them some lawbreakers. Which makes Trump/Miller/MAGA screaming about riding our country of crime especially funny.

They are the crooks and criminals. And remember, Stephen Miller won't be immune from state charges once Trump is dead and gone.

This list doesn't count the ones who had pending cases where Trump and his mob lawyer Pam Bondi just dropped the charges.
 
This is about more than just pardons. The pardon power had already become a bad joke, IMHO, and both parties abused it from time to time.

But the time-honored tradition of pardoning people who don't really deserve one was usually done as a ritualistic matter done when the president had become a lame duck. What Trump is doing here is using pardon powers to create an apartheid system of criminal justice, replacing the rule of the law with the rule by a strongman.

Adding this to my "No Kings" examples list.

Indiscriminate pardoning of loyalists.

And he's also doing this

I'm hoping someone from the right tells us the story about how the left is soft on crime, it's one of my favorites.
 
Trump is soft on crime.
This

As long as it's someone he likes or someone that can do something for him or someone that can pay him money.

Now, if it's a poor brown person he wants them tortured in some other country.

His racist cult loves it when he's tough on non-whites.
 
Problem is, to the "MAGA mind" (or more accurately lack thereof), by virtue of having an R next to their name, it's "patriotic crime and corruption" so it doesn't bother them, where all Ds "hate America" (so they erroneously believe) so any crime the opposition commits is "treasonous" simply by virtue of being democrats, where "patriotic GOP crimes" should go uncharged or be pardoned. They're as sensible and logical as Trump on the matter.

The worst part is most of them either are welded to the GOP by some unimportant side issue like Abortion, the notion of "taxes are theft", o just shitty people who can't stand anyone needing or getting help they don't personally get.
 
Party of corruption and facism its not surprising. Law and order my asscheeks

Or the ones where DoJ doesn't investigate crimes.
