Pardon follows months of efforts by Changpeng Zhao to boost the Trump crypto company

Trump has pardoned billionaire crypto mogul and Binance founder Changpeng Zhao -- who pled guilty to money laundering charges. This comes after Zhao helped boost the Trump family's crypto business. It's just the latest example of Trump's Pay-to-Pardon Scheme.

My wife and I are dining at a Chinese restaurant this weekend. I'll ask for an order of "Changpeng Zhao" and see what I get.

"Nice to see about (fill in the blank) now".

Is your standard giving the middle finger to any issue of law or morality which contradicts whatever Trump is doing that moment.

Just like BELLRINGER, no one knows what your values are; and everyone doubts that you have any.

"Nice to see you're not concerned (fill in the blank) now".

Is there anything, anything at all, that you've failed to excuse for Trump?

Maybe you'll be loyal to him to the bitter end. But in other parts of MAGA world deep cracks are showing.

We can start with Texas cattlemen, for reasons I should not have to explain to you.

We have a lot of cattle raisers in my part of the world, that's why my local MAGA Congressman, who stands over six feet tall, in currently cowering uncomfortably under his desk.

We know their values:
1. Owning the Libs
2. Promoting Nazis
3. Pedophilia

We've known this since their hero Rush Limbaugh was caught sneaking off to Cuba to rape underage boys.

None of you cared about how many or who Biden pardoned. How's that trolling? If you weren't such hypocrites I wouldn't even be saying anything.

This particular Trump pardon is utterly corrupt.

It would also have been corrupt if Biden did it, if that makes you feel any better.

Honestly, I wonder why it should.

The point being: Donald Trump is Stand Alone Scum.

He is Scum in his own right and by his own constant and serious effort.

That's a problem for me and the country.

But you do you.

"None of you cared about how many or who Biden pardoned."

Which are the ones you think we should care more about?

You don't care who or how many people Trump pardoned in 2020.

You don't care Trump pardoned violent criminals who partook in the J6th insurrection.

You don't care Trump pardoned George Santos.

You don't care about Trump bulldozing the White House and sending billions to Argentina while keeping the government shut down.

You have zero ground to stand on.

You're a fkkking hypocrite.

I was just going to ask if anyone has made this about Biden yet.

Then I see lfthndcuck's post and ... well ...

#13 | Posted by jpw at 2025-10-23 05:05 PM

- made this about Biden yet.

That particular obfuscating logical fallacy Whataboutism should sue Trumpers here for Abuse!

It's really all they have, as Trump's actions and inactions are Indefensible, even for his most fawning sycophant Fascist Cult Members.

Ever hear of Shanlin Jin? Biden commuted his sentence. Go look him up and get back to me.

#15 | Posted by lfthndthrds at 2025-10-23 06:30 PM

It was bad to send that guy back to China in exchange for three Americans?

#16 | Posted by snoofy at 2025-10-23 06:31 PM

I guess you can continue to ignore Trump destroying America cause Biden and Hillary and Obama ...

Meanwhile America continues to fail under Trump.

Turds hates Americans, so ...

#18 | Posted by ClownShack at 2025-10-23 06:32 PM

Were the three Americans there to overthrow the government, like the ones Trump got released from Venezuela prison, so that's why Biden had to bring them back home?

One crime only excuses another in MAGA world.

The MAGA principle that one crime excuses another opens the gates to Hell.

Your point of view is intellectually and emotionally bankrupt.

I don't care that John Dillinger stole millions from banks.

I do care that Donald Trump is stealing million from the US Treasury.

It was bad the Dillinger stole. But he's dead.

Trump is stealing from you now.

Get up on your hind legs and resist it. You have learned how to do at least that much haven't you? Stand on your hind legs?

Shanlin Jin, a Chinese national (of Asian descent) convicted in 2022 of possessing and distributing child pornography"a federal sexual offense involving over 47,000 images and videos, including one depicting the assault of an infant. He was sentenced to 97 months in prison.

This guy could be a republican politician.
