Walt Nauta, one of former President Donald Trump's co-defendants in his classified documents case, was allegedly told he would receive a pardon even if he was charged with lying to the FBI, according to newly unsealed court documents. The detail was revealed Monday in a redacted interview conducted with a witness in the federal case centered on Trump's handling of classified files after he left the White House. ... In an interview with the FBI, the witness -- only identified as "Person 16" and someone who worked in the Trump White House " told investigators Nauta had been promised a pardon if the former president was reelected in November.
Trump, Nauta and a third defendant, Carlos De Oliveira, have been charged with dozens of federal crimes in Florida, where the former president kept boxes of documents at his Mar-a-Lago club.
The following people allegedly sought pardons from PO1135809:
Matt "Check out these thong bikini pics from that High School chick I banged after the rave this weekend" Gaetz
Marjorie Traitor Greene
Rudy "I'm a little short, can I get that money you owe me?" Giuliani
Mark "I'll squeal, but want immunity" Meadows
Gym "Selective amnesia" Jordan
Andy "AntiAntifa" Biggs
Mo "Bulletproof" Brooks
Louie "I'm not a Nazi, I'm a White Nationalist" Gohmert
Scott "The 2020 election was stolen, except for the down-ballot Repubicans, like me, who are satisfied with the results that went our way" Perry
John "Naga...naga...not gonna be a lawyer anymore" Eastman
Remember, in order to obtain a pardon, one has to admit to their crime(s):
A pardon is an expression of the president's forgiveness and ordinarily is granted in recognition of the applicant's acceptance of responsibility for the crime and established good conduct for a significant period of time after conviction or completion of sentence. It does not signify innocence.
