President Obama Has Now Granted More Commutations than Any President in this Nation’s History
"While the mercy the President has shown his 1,597 clemency recipients is remarkable....President Obama’s 1,385 commutation grants – which includes 504 life sentences – is also more than the total number of commutations issued by the past 12 presidents combined. And with today’s 64 pardons, the President has now granted a total of 212 pardons."
But I'm glad that someone is keeping count.
It's just a shame that we wasted the efforts of an entire platoon and a CNN team while arresting him.
Nothing "swamp move" about that!

He was convicted of obstructing an official proceeding.
Tell me again...exactly what was the focus of this "official proceeding"?
Was it...the treasonous Russian Witch Hunt, fabricated by the Democrats in order to unseat a duly elected president?

Donald Trump. That was kind of my point. And he was convicted of much more than obstructing an official proceeding.
Are you not going to answer the question?

Really...."obstructing an official proceeding" is a round-up of what his case.
You want to see the list....Wikipedia.
Roger Stone...a dangerous man who belongs behind bars!
His jail time was commuted....he wasn't pardoned.
Would you feel better if the rule of law applied to everyone?

William Barr:
"Attorney General Barr believes Roger Stone prosecution was “righteous” and that he should serve prison time and acknowledges that the decision to pardon Stone is the Presidents call."

Stone is Trump's 36th pardon/commutation, a record low number, by far, for the modern presidency. An unusually high number of these (31/36 by my count), like Stone's, were based on a personal or political connection. Both are forms of abuse of an undoubted presidential power.

Stay in the basement 6 days a week and pop up on the 7th day copying everything Trump has talked about for 4 years. Makes you wonder if the Democrat Party even wants to win this election.

All of which, stem from illegal spying on the Trump campaign and the Democrats treasonous attempt do unseat a duly elected president.
"Good thing they canceled the rally in southern New Hampshire today...the weather is just terrible here. (This photo was taken about 8 miles from Pease.)"
Trump doesn't know weather. Afraid of another low turnout for a rally?

Living in MN I am happy for this decision. My only worry is he will now try to stick it to greater MN for the bill. This should have never been allowed to happen. Poor leadership by both the governor and mayor , they both need to be run out of office.

I like his mask, it’s cool with the presidential seal and everything. Wtf was the big deal?
Not sure. He could have done it three months ago and masks wouldn't be an issue today

He didn't want to look "weak" in front of his base. Pretty pathetic, even by his standards.

This Leftist said by and played "the cool guy" and allowed the thugs to destroy parts of his city.
Let them sit and look at the results for a long time and the taxpayers who elected him can pay to repair the damage.

You have a valid point, but who will suffer as a result of not getting aid?
Also, what about Republican governors or sheriffs who were late to the game, or never came to the game, in regards to sensible mandates about wearing masks or social distancing? And are now dealing with increased hospitalizations and are asking for federal aid? If federal aid were denied, who would suffer?
Yes, I have a valid point....and there is no "but...." The taxpayers in TX should not have to pay for the stupidity and cowardice of elected politicians in MN.

Let's deny continuing to give aid to Jackson Hospital, until the CEO, city and county mayor, governor and senators get their act together and stop the spread of corona virus, like officials in larger and more dense cities in Asia and Europe have done. BTW, the 6 officials mentioned above are all Republicans.
Alabama currently has 1114 Corona Deaths.
22 states have more.
You cutting them off too?
I called for that a long time ago
"The final tab for former President Obama's eight years of family travel to ski resorts, beaches and European cities has finally come in and the bill is $99,714,527.82."

Even Alabama?
Little bit of contradiction here....
But, I agree....it should be the reason that the money is needed that is the determining factor.
In the case of MN...it was the gutless response by they politicians when the population did it to themselves.
Assistance...DENIED!!

I was just making a point about Jackson Hospital and Miami, being a COVID outlier. The city, county and/or state are struggling to get the epidemic under control, but I wouldn't punish the frontline workers or sick patients by denying aid to Jackson. The same for the store owners in Minneapolis. The same for Alabama citizens - did something happen there?
It was a learning experience for many cities, where many mayors, even in Miami with a Republican mayor, chose lives over property damage, as a police car was set on fire and Bayside shops were vandalized, while police backed off.
In Atlanta, the mayor had a 180 after a child was killed near Wendy's. Some cities let it go on too long.
After Jan 20, 2021 .... Assistance... Approved!

I love golf as much as the next guy but in 8 years Obama’s went to Europe, Aspen, and the beach and spent less than Trump has golfing at his own places in 4 years. Crazy.

If you are correct then yes that does seem excessive. Perhaps a budget should be discussed for their vacation spending.

It is absurd but that's mostly because of the great lengths we take to protect the President and their family (rightfully so). Also, it is a stressful job the President should have some vacation or RnR time. My issue with Trump would just be that he used this as a big talking point against Obama and his trips are enriching himself as he's basically taking government money and distributing it to his resorts everytime he does this. That's not cool at all.

That's because his wife was soaking up all the taxpayer funds going on 3 week vacations every 4 weeks. And not to, like, Virginia or anything. Overseas trips all over the world.
